The EuroMillions results are in - and if you bought a ticket, it is time to check if you have won tonight's huge £41million jackpot.

The draw takes place every Tuesday and Friday, with a ticket costing £2.50 and including automatic entry into the UK Millionaire Maker draw, which creates new UK millionaires every week, guaranteed. A lucky Brit could win this life-changing sum of money which could change their life drastically.

You can still take home some of the money with fewer numbers, and just two could mean a small winning. But if you did not bag a prize this evening, you have another chance later this week as EuroMillions is also played on Friday night.

The winning numbers in the main EuroMillions draw were 16, 18, 35, 36, and 41, while the Lucky Stars were 06 and 07. Tuesday also saw the draw for the Thunderball with numbers 09, 27, 28, 29, 37 drawn. Meanwhile, the Thunderball itself is 01.

Earlier this month, a couple who scooped £1million on EuroMillions were left buzzing after their win allowed them to spend more time with their beloved bees. Jeff and Davinia Pritchard said the windfall has allowed them to dedicate even more hours to expanding their bee empire, improving quality of life for themselves and the local bee population.

The couple were working full time – Jeff as a works manager and Davinia as a coordinator for the Welsh Ambulance Service – and feared they would have to sell their home to fund their retirement. But that changed the day Jeff checked a message from The National Lottery and discovered that, instead of the usual £6.40, they had won £1m.

The couple had always loved keeping bees and found it the perfect way to relax while channelling their love for the environment. Since the win, in June 2015, they have been able to grow their small business. Jeff, 60, said: "I've always loved being outdoors with my bees, and our win made that easier to do.

"I was able to retire early, giving me more time to spend with the family, but also time for the simple things in life like tending to my bees and improving the land around our home to ensure a truly bee-friendly environment. As a result, the hives are thriving, our home looks amazing and we are producing plenty of lovely local honey."

Davinia, 58, added: "Before we won, we already felt we'd hit the jackpot having bought our dream cottage. Then, thanks to that dose of lottery luck, we were able to clear the mortgage and complete the renovation works so we had more space for the family and can make the most of the garden. During the pandemic, being able to come home here to recharge and forget the day was utterly priceless."
