Loose Women star Denise Welch was "lost for words" after being crowned the winner of Channel 5's Celebrity Big Brother on Friday night.
Despite causing controversy during the course of the show, the former Coronation Street actress received the most public votes, beating X Factor's Frankie Cocozza to the title.
Welch, who broke down in tears when she was crowned as the overall winner, was a prominent figure in this year's series, sparking a huge argument by pulling down another contestant's pyjamas during a drunken night.
Earlier in Friday's live final, former captain of the Welsh rugby team Gareth Thomas, glamour girl twins Kristina and Karissa Shannon and Reservoir Dogs actor Michael Madsen were evicted from the house.
