Celebrity Big Brother 2024 LIVE final – who won? David Potts bags the most votes to be crowned CBB king
David Potts has been crowned the winner of Celebrity Big Brother 2024 after three weeks of drama, feuds and brutal evictions.
The Ibiza Weekender star was announced the series champ following a tense live final, hosted by AJ Odudu and Will Best.
David, 30, fought off competition from his fellow finalists Fern Britton, Louis Walsh, Colson Smith and Nikita Kuzmin before triumphing.
He and Nikita were the last men standing, before AJ and Will called out David's name - much to his amazement.
The stunned reality star, who had his bare legs on show and repeatedly used his "slay" catchphrase, then proceeded to kick off his slip-ons and pace around the house barefoot.
Speaking on spin-off show Celebrity Big Brother Late and Live, David gushed: "I've had such a good time, the housemates were so amazing and I just felt like we made our own fun."
