Ella won the first show on Sunday and has beaten a further eight acts since.

Incredibly, despite being showcased as a newcomer to the music scene, Ella is already an established artist, with her songs attracting millions of plays on Spotify.

Already in her career, she has played packed out shows at the Isle of White Festival, Latitude Festival - and even supported Justin Bieber at his Purpose World Tour.

Taking to Twitter, one fan wrote: "Ella's already won it, it's a bl**** fix."

Another said: "Walk The Line is the biggest fix ever in TV history. She didn’t even look shocked as she won tonight!"

A third tweeted: "Ella wins the night again. Completely genuine, authentic, not fixed at all."

And a fourth even mused: "One Ella of a fix this.";

Walk The Line is the brainchild of Simon Cowell and it kicked off on Sunday night.

Ella was voted the best act of the evening, meaning she was given the chance to take £10,000 or 'walk the line' into Monday's show.

She walked - and then went head-to-head with four new soloists and musicians.

Three acts were ruled out following a live and virtual audience vote, leaving Ella up against a male singer called Darby.

Ella was given the option of taking £20,000 in cash or 'walking the line' again. If her line turned red, it meant Darby was through to Tuesday's show. If it turned gold she was.

It turned to gold and Ella went through.

One Tuesday, the singer went up against another four acts. Again, three were sent packing following a live and virtual audience vote.

Ella then had to choose between taking a lump of cash and leaving the competition, or 'walking the line' against a male group called Raynes.

She walked - and again went through.
