    The final episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK season 7 started with “just family” on the judges’ panel. While Michelle Visage, Graham Norton and Alan Carr joined RuPaul for the high-stakes finale, they celebrated the journey of the queens.

    The top four finalists, Bones, Elle Vosque, Catrin Feelings and Silllexa Diction, sat down for one-on-one conversations with RuPaul and Michelle, followed by each queen receiving surprise visits from their loved ones, making all contestants, along with the viewers, emotional.

    The final challenge required the queens to write, record and perform their own verses to the original track, “Money Shot.

    On the runway, they delivered jaw-dropping looks under the Epic Eleganza theme. After all the runway performances, all the eliminated queens returned for one last appearance, where Chai T Grande was crowned Miss Congeniality.

    RuPaul then went on to narrow down the competition, announcing the elimination of  Catrin Feelings and Silllexa Diction, making Bones and Elle Vosque the top two queens competing for the title of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.

    Lastly, the final lip-sync battle took place to "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" by Jimmy Somerville. After both the queens finished their performances, RuPaul announced Bones as the winner, and Elle Vosque emerged as the runner-up, with RuPaul stating his infamous line:

    "Bones, you are the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Season Seven."

    Bones, who was visibly shocked, expressed her emotions after winning the title, noting:

    "I’ve had the most amazing experience, but once you get rid of the B and the S, you’ve got the one! OMG I cannot believe it! This is actually happening. I’m so proud of myself — I can’t wait to show the world what else I can do."
