In a video with Carter on the set of the singing show Gwen yelled: "Oh my god we won! This is so crazy. 

"We're trying to understand how this can be happening right now. We aren't even supposed to be close to each other."

While Gwen was clearly elated and surprised at the result, she had vowed to come out on top right from the start.

Gwen was thrilled to have won with her contestant Carter Rubin 

"Blake won last season," she said during this season's premiere. "But I'm back this season and I’m going to get a win."

In fact, she was so determined she issued a stern warning to her future-husband in a video ahead of the start of the show. 

Blake came at Gwen and said: "This is a dog eat dog business, there is no feelings," but she fired back: "The whole reason I came on this show is to destroy Blake."

Of course, they were just joking! 

Although backstage after the finale the country singer was heard mocking Gwen's win and called the show "rigged" in a fun Instagram Story. 

With the show wrapped, the couple will hopefully have a relaxed Christmas at home with Gwen's three boys, Apollo, six, Zuma, twelve and Kingston, 14.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they will likely stay at their stunning LA mansion where they can also be near their dad Gavin Rossdale.
