News from all over - Somewhere in Britain
The winner of Britain's £26.5 million lottery jackpot last month was already a multi-millionaire. The identity of the person who became Britain's second-biggest lottery winner on scoring the August 31 EuroMillions jackpot has not been officially disclosed.
But the Sun newspaper reported he already owned a multinational business, a £4 million gated property and a Rolls Royce. "He is desperately trying to keep his windfall secret from everyone except his family," the newspaper wrote.
Asked about the winner's identity, a spokesman for lottery operator Camelot said: "The winner...did not take publicity, so we can neither confirm nor deny any information about it."
