While speaking after her win, she said: "I wasn't expecting it to be so soon. I didn't expect to get to the blind auditions; I didn't expect anyone to turn. I don't know what to say. Thank you Tom."
Donel was equally pleased, despite coming runner up. He told host Emma Willis: "Thank you so much. I've loved every second of it. To have come runner up, it's amazing. Working with will.i.am has been my highlight. I'm so happy, as happy as Ruti."
