The winner of the €190 million EuroMillions jackpot has come forward.
It was revealed earlier this week that the winner of the gargantuan sum of money
bought the ticket in the UK.
Camelot confirmed that the winner of the jackpot came forward today.
The player's identity will remain anonymous unless they decide to go public with the winnings.
Whether the ticket-holder is an individual person or a syndicate will also be kept a secret unless the player decides otherwise.
The €190 million jackpot had to be won on Tuesday, October 8 as it had hit its maximum capacity of five consecutive unwon draws - the first time the EuroMillions draw has ever reached its five time cap in its 15 year history.
The winning numbers were 7, 10, 15, 44, and 49. The lucky stars were 3 and 12.
A lucky person in Rathfarnham, Dublin, also scooped up a decent €500,000
in Tuesday's draw.
The ticket was sold in the Centra store on the Grange Road in Rathfarnham.
The shop celebrated the news on their Facebook page, saying that they were "delighted" for one of their customers.
A spokesperson for the National Lottery said: "While one lucky player in the UK may be €190 million richer this morning, we still had in excess of 203,000 winners in Ireland in last night’s draw so it is important that each and every player throughout the country checks their tickets to see if they have won a prize."
