A couple from the Scottish Borders have been revealed as the winners of £33m after this weekend’s record National Lottery draw.

Saturday’s historic £66m rollover Lotto prize was split between two tickets that had all six winning numbers from the National Lottery draw: 26, 27, 46, 47, 52 and 58.

The jackpot was the result of 14 consecutive rollovers. Camelot, which runs the National Lottery, said one of the winning tickets had been checked and verified and belonged to a husband and wife from the Scottish Borders.

The couple, who have not been named, plan on making an announcement in Edinburgh on Wednesday where they will celebrate the outcome.

Camelot has revealed the couple plan on taking early retirement after receiving the “life-changing” cheque.

A Lotto statement said: “A couple from the Scottish Borders are celebrating today after winning one half of last weekend’s incredible £66m Lotto jackpot.

“The husband-and-wife team are celebrating with a life-changing cheque for £33,035,323. The couple plan to enjoy their winnings and take early retirement.”

The holder of the second winning ticket has yet to come forward and people have been urged to check their tickets.

A Lotto spokesperson said: “Someone out there still doesn’t realise they have won.”

The second winner has until 7 July to claim their prize, as winners have 180 days after the draw date to claim the money.
