Ava Mannings was crowned the winner of The Voice UK Season 13 during the finale on October 26, 2024, after impressing coaches Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones throughout the competition. Unlike previous seasons, the winner was determined solely by a studio audience vote, leading to frustration among fans who felt the public should have a say in the outcome. Ava, who hails from Bristol, performed a series of standout songs, including 'Damn Your Eyes' by Etta James during the blind auditions, which won her the attention of all four coaches. The finale featured guest performances, including one by Perrie Edwards, and showcased the finalists' talents, adding to the excitement of the event. Despite the controversy over the voting method, many fans expressed support for Ava's victory and the coaching duo's mentorship. Ultimately, the show aims to evolve with its format while maintaining the essence of showcasing emerging talent.
