The winning ticket has become the 1st jackpot winner of November and in fact the first since mid-October. It didn’t take long for the jackpot to reach over £50 million, however this win means that the slate gets wiped clean and the top prize for the EuroMillions now goes back to an estimated £12/€15 million.
