When asked how it feels to be crowned winner, Craig said he's "feeling absolutely amazing, to have my own single that's number 1 on iTunes chart is just amazing. Everything that's come from this is a lot to process but I'm getting there".

Speaking about his time with mentor, Anne Marie, Craig said: "Anne Marie is amazing, apart from the music aspect she helped me a lot mentally and I feel a lot more confident now". Anne Marie was a new mentor for this series.

Craig also told Ricky that going into the competition, he didn't even think he would make it past the blind auditions: "Now that I've won it, it really has showed me that if you doubt yourself you're probably very wrong, you can conquer the world if you want, if you put your mind to it".
