A UK ticket-holder has come forward to claim the £110m Euromillions jackpot.

If a single ticket holder has won the jackpot, it would make them wealthier than Harry Styles, according to the Sunday Times Rich List.

The National Lottery said a single ticket-holder had come forward to claim the "life-changing sum".

It is the fifth Euromillions jackpot won in the UK this year, including the record £195m win in July.

The Euromillions draw is played in nine European countries and held twice a week.

Once the ticket has been validated and paid, the winner will then decide whether or not to go public.

Only 15 UK players have ever won a jackpot of more than £100 million, with the record-holders deciding to remain anonymous after winning £195 million in July .
