Wanaka's Chris and Bex are the 2017 My Kitchen Rules New Zealand champions after last night's grand finale on TVNZ 2.
They beat foodie friends Heather and Mitch from Christchurch to take the title and $100,000 prize.
The teams dished up four courses each for a full house at Auckland’s Gusto restaurant.
But only one duo could be the winners and the final score gave Chris and Bex a grand total of 52 out of 60.
"This has been a tough competition," Chris said.
"It has, it has," Bex agreed.
"We've fought all the way, and tonight we've smashed it," Chris said.
The couple were sweethearts, but broke up after filming ended.
The Wanaka pair, who broke up after the show ended, revisited a previous failure in last night's big finale.
Manu Feildel and Pete Evans were joined on the judging panel by fellow celebrity chefs Nadia Lim, Sean Connolly, Ray McVinnie and Tom Hishon.
