Dancing with the Stars 2025 Winner Crowned: Finale Results and the Shocking Mirrorball Upset
By Elena Rostova
The finale featured four couples with elite technique, leaving minuscule margins between first and fourth place on the judges' scorecards alone.
| Finalist Couple | Redemption Dance | Freestyle Score | Final Placement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Robert Irwin & Witney Carson | 30 / 30 (Argentine Tango) | 30 / 30 | Winner (Mirrorball Champions) |
| Runner-Up Finalist Pair A | 30 / 30 (Viennese Waltz) | 30 / 30 | Runner-Up (2nd Place) |
| Runner-Up Finalist Pair B | 29 / 30 (Cha-Cha) | 30 / 30 | 3rd Place |
| Runner-Up Finalist Pair C | 28 / 30 (Foxtrot) | 29 / 30 | 4th Place |
Because multiple couples walked away with perfect or near-perfect scores on finale night, the judges' paddles did little to break the deadlock. The ultimate victor came down to who could mobilize audiences in real time.
