Gareth Thomas has finished third in tonight's Celebrity Big Brother 2012 final.
The Welsh rugby star exited the house to affectionate cheers from the Elstree audience.
Thomas had been tipped by many Digital Spy readers to win the Channel 5 reality show.
The 37-year-old received fewer votes than Denise Welch and Frankie Cocozza.
Putting a positive spin on his exit, he told Brian Dowling: "I think everybody's focus was to get to the last few days, and not to get voted out by the people in the house, so that's a massive achievement."
On why he was so popular in the house, he explained: "I tried to get on with everyone, I tried to be myself with everyone. I didn't try for people to like me, I just liked them.
"I'm a team player, I don't like to do things on my own, I'm not an individual. I wanted to be the team player [in the house]."
Michael Madsen and the Shannon twins left the house earlier tonight.
