Friday night's EuroMillions draw brought a life-changing win for one lucky teenager, who secured a £1 million prize in the UK Millionaire Maker raffle. Meanwhile, the massive multi-million pound jackpot has rolled over once more, creating an even larger prize for the next draw.
EuroMillions Results and the Rollover Jackpot
The draw on Friday 2 January 2026 saw the main EuroMillions jackpot reach an estimated £27 million. To have won this top prize, a player needed to match all five main numbers and both Lucky Star numbers. However, no ticket holder managed this feat, meaning the enormous sum will roll over to the next drawing.
The winning main numbers drawn were: 8, 27, 42, 44, and 46. The crucial Lucky Stars required were 1 and 10.
UK Millionaire Maker Creates Teenage Millionaire
Every single EuroMillions ticket purchased in the United Kingdom includes a unique code for the UK Millionaire Maker draw. This separate raffle guarantees at least one £1 million winner in every EuroMillions event.
In Friday's draw, 10 winning codes were selected, each awarding a seven-figure sum. Among the new millionaires is a teenager, whose life has been transformed overnight by the lottery win.
Thunderball Numbers for 2 January
Alongside the EuroMillions, the Thunderball draw also took place. Players hoping to win the top prize of £500,000 needed to match five main numbers and the Thunderball itself.
The Thunderball numbers drawn on Friday night were: 4, 12, 18, 19, and 32. The Thunderball was 9.
With the jackpot unclaimed, lottery excitement continues to build. Players are now looking ahead to the next draw, where the EuroMillions jackpot will be even larger following this latest rollover.
