Anthonia and David were the final two contestants in the competition
But it was Anthonia who managed to win after her performance of Billie Eilish’s When The Party’s Over.
Although she was given the season 11 champion label, many watching at home weren’t happy.
Fans of the hit talent show were left confused by how she managed to get the title.
One pointed out on Twitter: “There’s a pattern going on in the UK at the moment where the public don’t get to vote. Didn’t get to vote for our Prime Minister or the Winner of the Voice.”

Another asked on the social media platform: “Why do the studio audience choose? #fix #TheVoice.”
A third chimed in on Instagram: “It must be a fix how Naomi Johnson’s not made the final 2, I think Naomi is the most talented woman ever.”
A fourth added: “#TheVoiceUK Antonia right winner but still with Mark Howard!! Just who were “”The Voters””?? Thought it was public vote!!”
The Celeb Report contacted ITV for comment.
Despite that, many were over the moon for Anthonia.
One said: “Aaaahhhhhhhhhh! Anthonia wins #TheVoiceUK 2022! Such a sensational and powerful singer throughout! I am proud beyond words!”
“Congratulations Anthonia Edwards you deserve it,” another wrote.
Another added: “So pleased for Anthonia and Sir Tom Jones, so well deserved. Can’t wait to see what’s next for her. David a very worthy runner up. Another enjoyable series of #TheVoiceUK ends I have really liked having this on. Thanks to the coaches, Emma, all contestants and all involved.”
Anthonia took to Instagram to share her how excited she is to start her new journey after bagging a record contract with Universal’s label UMOD.
The singer took to Instagram to say: “REAL LIFE PINCH ME MOMENT!!!!!!!! 
I can’t believe it!!!! God Only 
.
“Thank you so much to everyone that has supported me on this journey.

“To my family, all of the coaches, my team, all of the amazing contestants AND last but not least the incredible people that have tuned in every week, I appreciate you all.
“My new single Anyone is OUT NOW and I’m so excited to put this version out into the world!”
Anthonia recently revealed she nearly blew her final performance with mentor Sir Tom Jones as she forgot her lines.
The nurse, who used to look after Covid patients, admitted she was so nervous duetting with the Welsh icon on a cover of James Brown’s It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World last night that she had a memory blank.
Fortunately she pulled it together — and now she is penning songs for her debut album.
Anthonia told The Celeb Report: “It’s incredibly surreal. I’m so proud of myself and the duet with Sir Tom was incredible.
