Celebrity Race Across The World declares winner in nail-biting series finale in Chile

SCOTT Mills and husband Sam were declared the winners of Celebrity Race Across The World after a nail-biting rush to the finish line.

In the final episode of the series, the four teams had to make their way through Argentina into Chile to get to the finish line in the seaside town of Frutillar.

Making their way through the stunning region of Patagonia, crossing through mountains and deserts on a tight budget.

Each choosing to take separate routes via buses, coaches, taxis and even hitch-hiking, Kelly Brook and husband Jeremy Parisi took an early lead.

However, Scott and husband Sam, plus Ted Lasso’s Kola Bokinni and cousin Mary-Ellen then were quick on their heels.

Once in Frutillar, Kola and Mary-Ellen and Scott and Sam were both neck-and-neck, travelling to a designated restaurant before heading to the base camp of a volcano.

With money running-short, Kola and Mary-Ellen had to do the last leg by foot, climbing up a volcano to get to the Chilean flag that marked the end of the race.

Signing their name in the book to signal their end, Sam and Scott were declared the winners – beating Kola and Mary-Ellen by two hours.

“It’s been exhilarating, it’s been tough, it’s been so frustrating at times, but it just proves we’re a great team – a winning team,” said Scott on the win.

The entire 12,500km route took 30 days for the groups to complete.

Jeff Brazier and son Freddy came third, arriving nearly a day later, followed finally by Kelly Brook and Jeremy Parisi.
