Who won X Factor: Celebrity 2019? Megan McKenna crowned winner during final

Megan McKenna has won The X Factor: Celebrity 2019, after beating V5, Max and Harvey and Jenny Ryan in the live final.

The former TOWIE and Celebrity Big Brother star broke down as she was told she had won the series, and a recording contract.

All four finalists performed for the final time this series, wanting the votes of the public.

Singing a Christmas track and their favourite song of the series, all four took to the stage once more.

Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger and Louis Walsh all had acts in the final.

Country singer Megan had been the favourite, or one of the favourites, from the start.

Performing her original songs each week, many tipped her to take the crown for weeks.

As the result came in, Megan placed her head in her hands and shouted: "Oh my God."

Megan was visibly speechless, as Dermot grilled her on how she was feeling.

She said: "Thank u so much for to everyone who voted for me.

"I'm living my dream and can't say how excited I am... thank you."

Max and Harvey were runner-up with Jenny Ryan (ITV)

Dermot then told her to get herself ready, as she needed to perform again.

Jenny Ryan and Max and Harvey praised a worthy winner, coming in runner-up positions.

Girl band V5 finished fourth on the show.

X Factor returns in December for its new spin-off, The Band.
