Camelot confirmed another single ticket-holder won the prize of £8.6 million.
The record was previously held by an anonymous ticket-holder who banked £170m in October 2019.
Camelot’s Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor said: “What a week of winning it’s been for National Lottery players!
“Over £192M in jackpot prizes have been won by two very lucky ticket-holders.
“Our focus now is on supporting this latest ticket-holder, who has scooped the £8.6M Lotto jackpot from Wednesday’s draw, through the process and helping them start to enjoy their truly life-changing and record-breaking win.
“They say good luck comes in threes so who knows, there may be more jackpot joy for National Lottery players in this weekend’s draws!”
He exclusively told Sun Online: “Take your time. When people do win, it suddenly becomes serious, so people aren’t often as gregarious as they think they will be.
“It is a bit of a huge shock. And sometimes you can be sort of concerned with the shock, you forget to celebrate.
