Strictly winners crowned in glitzy live final
Karen Carney and Carlos Gu won the 2025 Strictly Come Dancing Glitterball Trophy on the final show hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, with public votes deciding the winner.
- On December 20, the Strictly Come Dancing final aired on BBC One, and Karen Carney with professional Carlos Gu were crowned champions following the public vote.
- After three months of competition, the series finale served as the hosts' farewell, with Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman presenting their last show on Saturday night.
- Each finalist performed three dances—judges' pick, favourite, and show dance—with Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin earning a perfect 40 for their jive, while judges' marks were advisory only.
- Carlos Gu broke down during his onstage speech, moving hosts Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly to tears while viewers on social media praised him.
- With phone voting removed, viewers must vote online via the Strictly Come Dancing homepage by scanning the on-screen QR code or creating a BBC account, casting up to five votes.
