A claim has been staked for the £58.3 million EuroMillions jackpot won on Friday by a single UK ticket-holder.

The winner has scooped £58,366,487.50 after matching all five main numbers and the lucky stars.

Camelot said the claim will now go through the process of validation.

Subject to those checks, the prize will then be paid out.

The winner will then decide whether to go public and share their news.

No information will be given on whether it is an individual or syndicate winner, or where the ticket was purchased, unless the ticket-holder decides to go public.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at The National Lottery, said: "It is wonderful news that a lucky ticket-holder has claimed this incredible prize.

"We will now focus on supporting the ticket-holder through the validation and help them start to enjoy their win."
