EuroMillions players in Ireland are being asked to check their tickets as the winner of last night’s mega jackpot has not yet come forward.
One lucky ticket holder claimed the £208million top prize during the EuroMillions draw on June 17.
The National Lottery has now confirmed the winner is from the Munster area of Ireland – and they bought their ticket in a shop rather than online.
So there’s someone out there who has just won 250million Euros and doesn’t even know it yet.
Emma Monaghan, spokesperson for the National Lottery, said: ‘What a night for our EuroMillions players.
‘Not only did we see 92,000 players in Ireland win prizes, including our top prize in EuroMillions Plus, but we also saw the historic jackpot being won by an Irish player.
‘We are continuing to advise all EuroMillions players in the Munster region to check their tickets very carefully to see if they have landed this mega windfall.
‘We’re looking forward to sharing more details about the win in the coming days!’
