Emma Willis in tears at Big Brother’s last ever show as Cameron Cole is crowned youngest winner after scandal riddled series

EMMA Willis cried as the curtain closed on Big Brother for the final time this evening.
Cameron Coles was crowned the youngest ever winner of the show and walked away with the £100,000 prize.
In an emotional speech she said: “I personally want to thank the 300 plus team who work tirelessly to bring you this show. To Davina, Marcus and Brian who have paved the way as hosts...
“To all the big brother housemates over the past 18 years and to all of you at home. Without you we would never have lasted without you.
“It's time now for this house to hopefully find a new home. Thank you so much for watching.
She struggled to hold back her tears as she spoke the audience, with many admitting they were crying while watching her.”
The series has been rocked by scandals, including the removal of disgraced housemate Lewis Flanagan.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun Online, the bartender admitted he'd used sickening language in the house.
He defended the Channel 5 bosses' decision to remove him.
During tonight's live show, Lewis confirmed he would not be joining his co-stars at the studios.
Zoe and Cian were first out of the house, with Akeem coming second in the competition.
Their post eviction interviews weren't without controversy, as fans believed Zoe admitted she'd spoken to her son during her entire time in the house.
Contestants are banned from contact with the outside world, and viewers believed bosses had twisted the rules for her.
Cameron burst into tears when Emma crowned him the winner of the series, with fans going wild at the news.
One tweeted: “What a fitting end to this amazing show, so happy for Cameron.”
Another said: “Congrats Cameron, well deserved winner for this last series.”
While a third told their followers: “Congratulations Cameron - worthy winner of possibly the last ever!”
Speaking to Emma during his exit interview, Cameron said: “I didn't think I would be liked, I moan a lot. I didn't think I would fit in.
“I love all the housemates.
“It has been the most incredible house. This experience was everything I wanted and more.”
When the show came to a close, Emma was comforted by members of the crew.
She wiped away her tears and embraced those nearest to her.
Channel 5 confirmed the show would end after this series earlier this year.
It's still not known if the franchise will return on another channel.
