Lucky Lotto player scoops £12m jackpot in weekend draw

The estimated jackpot for the next draw on Wednesday is £2 million.
This Saturday’s winning Lotto numbers were 08, 10, 26, 30, 35, 42 and the bonus number was 50.
The National Lottery urged all players to check their tickets and get in contact if they think they are the new multi-millionaire.
One player won £1 million after matching five out of six numbers and the bonus, with 140 matching five out of six to win £1,750.
It’s time to celebrate because someone has won the Lotto jackpot 👏

In Lotto HotPicks, which uses the same numbers as the Lotto draw, no one matched all five numbers to scoop the £350,000 top prize, but 10 players matched four numbers to win £13,000 each.
The winning Thunderball numbers were 06, 11, 25, 29, 37 and the Thunderball number was 06.
No players scooped the top prize of £500,000 by matching all five numbers plus the Thunderball, but three matched the five numbers required to win £5,000.
Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at Allwyn, said: “Wow, the nation’s millionaire maker, Lotto, has made its third jackpot winner in the space of just two weeks, as one lucky ticket-holder has scooped tonight’s £12 million ‘Must Be Won’ Lotto jackpot prize. This adds another millionaire to the other 63 Lotto millionaires made in 2026 so far. Check your tickets and get in touch if you think you might be tonight’s lucky winner.
“And that’s not all – next Wednesday (June 10) sees the launch of the brand-new Lotto game, bringing players two chances to win with every ticket. Every £2 line will automatically be entered into two separate rounds each draw night, with no change to the way you play. Tickets go on sale this Sunday, June 7 so don’t miss your chance to be part of the very first draw of the all-new Lotto game.
“Playing any National Lottery game is about so much more than the chance to celebrate a big win. Every week, players help raise around £33 million for good cause projects that make a real difference to communities across the UK.”
