The powerful piece earned a perfect score, with Helen calling it “one of the best performances” she’s ever seen on any series of the show.

A humbled Kyle said: “I’m feeling mixed emotions as it’s come to an end. We built such a strong family here and you can see all the beautiful people behind us.

“It’s amazing to be able to stand here and hold this trophy, knowing all the hard work we put in has paid off.”

Kyle was awarded $20,000 for his chosen charity, The Indigenous Literacy Foundation.

On the night, Felicity Ward and Aric Yegudkin were first to take the floor, bursting out with a high-energy mix of quickstep and lindy hop.

Helen Richey praised Felicity for always giving it her all, calling her a joy to watch.

Michael Usher and Natalie Lowe followed with a routine that showcased all the Latin flair he had picked up throughout the series.

Mark Wilson told Michael he should be proud of his efforts week after week.

Trent Cotchin and Jess Raffa delivered an emotional contemporary routine that Craig Revel Horwood described as strong and layered, with “a bit of everything”.

Brittany Hockley and Craig Monley brought heartfelt emotion to their dance, which was dedicated to Brittany’s husband.

The routine ended with Brittany signing “thank you” in Auslan to Craig, who is deaf in his right ear. Sharna Burgess called it “stunning” and praised Brittany’s transformation into a true dancer.

Closing the competition with showbiz flair, Shaun Micallef and Ash-Leigh Hunter performed a musical theatre-style show dance that lit up the ballroom. Sharna said the “entertainment was through the roof” and watching it was “spectacular”.

As the studio audience awaited the final result, they were treated to an unforgettable live performance from Grammy Award winner and The Voice coach Richard Marx, who sang his classic hit Right Here Waiting and his new single Magic Hour.

After the audience vote, the final two couples were revealed: Kyle and Lily and Shaun and Ash-Leigh.
