The largest EuroMillions jackpot in history is still up for grabs after no one won the jackpot on Tuesday.

If a person wins the main prize when it is drawn again on Friday, with an estimated value of £ 175 million, they would go to the top of the wealthy list of the national lottery, beating the anonymous winner of £ 170 million last year.

The draw numbers for Tuesday were 01, 04, 21, 24, 46 and the Lucky Stars were: 02, 12.

Sixteen ticket holders won £ 11,680 each after hitting the top five numbers and, in the millionaire maker’s pick, one person became a millionaire with the code HZZF32476.

The Thunderball numbers for the National Lottery were 14, 24, 21, 10, 26 and the Thunderball number was 12.

No one took the £ 500,000 jackpot in the Thunderball drawing.

The jackpot has now reached its limit, which means that any prizes at the next winning level will be increased for Friday’s drawing.

Meanwhile, a couple who won the jackpot in January last year have given away more than half of their prize of nearly 115 million pounds.

Frances and Patrick Connolly said their first priority was a list of around 50 friends and family and that they also established two charitable foundations: Kathleen Graham Trust in Northern Ireland, where they are both from, and the PFC Trust in County Durham, from Where do they work. now lives.

Among his good deeds was the purchase of 1,000 gifts for patients at the hospital on Christmas Day and the donation of tablets to those who were isolated from loved ones during the coronavirus shutdown.

After their victory, the couple had promised not to be part of the “jet set”, celebrating their victory with a hug and a cup of tea.

They rejected the possibility of living in a castle and a 15-room manor house that came with a village. Instead, they live in a five-bedroom house, albeit with five acres of land, a tennis court, and a swimming pool.

Ms Connolly, 54, said she wanted to draw attention to the good work that so many people are doing for charity during the pandemic.

She said: “People need to be celebrated. Not me, not by me, not by my imagination, but if I speak up, it might draw attention to the fact that we are actually a nation of heroes here.”

Ms. Connolly said, “Patrick joked for years that if we ever won the lottery, he would take away my cell phone and never let me use the computer again because he would give away the lot. But I have really enjoyed helping other people.”
