Jack P Shepherd has been crowned winner of Celebrity Big Brother, with Danny Beard finishing as runner-up.
The Coronation Street star, 37, couldn't contain his shock as hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best revealed that he received the most votes from the public during Friday night's live final.
Walking away victorious, Jack becomes the reigning champion, joining ITV’s cohort of winners including fellow Celebrity Big Brother winner David Potts, and Big Brother winners Jordan Sangha and Ali Bromley.
In his first exclusive interview, Jack told AJ and Will that he is 'blown away' by his victory and 'didn't expect it' - instead he had JoJo Siwa 'nailed' as the winner.
Talking about how he went from the most-nominated housemate to the winner, the soap star admitted: 'I figured that I might annoy a few people and they might not know how to work me out but I guess I was liked by the end.'
But before Jack's interview, Drag Race star Danny, 32, exited the iconic house after being revealed as the second-place star.

He got emotional as he opened up on how much he loved his time in the house as 'himself' without the wigs and makeup.
And 21-year-old Dance Moms star JoJo looked elated as she got a podium finish on the ITV show in third place.
Speaking to AJ and Will, she revealed she thought 'everyone was going to hate her' and is 'so grateful' for finishing in third.
Discussing her close bond with Chris Hughes, she gushed: 'Chris is in my life for forever now, I'm so incredibly grateful for him. He's helped me get through my hard times in this house.'
Over the last few weeks, the duo have raised eyebrows over their 'flirty' friendship in the house.
The star described her pal as 'more than a friend' and revealed they already have plans to play tennis together on Sunday.
Talking about her letter from home, JoJo admitted: 'For me, I felt like the whole time in the house I was all in there then when I got the letter my brain went running outside the house and I felt so disconnected.'
She added: 'Being away from everything you know and the super publicness of my life, I've always seen what people had to say about me and felt a pressure.
'You can't hide in there, you're down to your most vulnerable self but now I'm terrified to watch it.'

Just before, comedian and actress Donna Preston, 38, walked out of the door in fourth place to huge cheers from the crowd chanting her name.
Donna was told she receieved the fewest amount of nominations out of all of the housemates - just two throughout the series.
When asked about her odd nomination reasons, the star admitted: 'I think I was a bit naughty wasn't I. I honestly didn't have anything bad to say about anyone.'
And opening up on her close friendship with Danny Beard, she sweetly quipped: 'As soon as I saw Danny I knew he was my comfort blanket and I knew I was going to be amazing friends with him.'
It came after Chris Hughes and Chesney Hawkes were evicted from the house in sixth and fifth place.
The Love Island star, 32, was told by AJ and Will that he would be the first to leave the house at the beginning of the live final.

Then, just moments later the One And Only hitmaker, 53, was revealed to be in fifth place, following behind Chris.
As he was interviewed by Will and AJ, Chesney emotionally quipped: 'I'm trying not to cry, I keep seeing my wife.'
Meanwhile, reflecting on his experience, Chris explained: 'It's like a relentless environment. When you wake up in the morning you're on it until you go to bed. It was an amazing experience and I'll never forget it. All six of us are so close.'
When quizzed about his friendship with JoJo, Chris said: 'I know what I'm like as a human being and I know how I bond to people.
He said: 'JoJo was like a pure rock to me. She was someone that I could have fun with. That to me was a beautiful friendship. She said to me last night you're someone in my life I didn't know I needed.'
Breaking down in tears, Chris revealed that JoJo reminded him of his ex Jesy Nelson as he reflected on their close relationship.
He continued: 'She reminded me a lot of... The thing that fascinates me the most about her is not the things she's done, it's what she's been through when she was a teenager and that's similar to what my ex-girlfriend went through.
'Seeing how they are both similarly as... in the respect that she's come through a lot and she's just a purely nice person. The similarity is in the personality. How nice they are, how loving they are and how caring they are.'
