Inialay pa niya ang kanyang performanc­e kay Coleen at sa anak nilang si Amari, “To my wife and my son, this is for you!”

Sa huling laban, humataw sina Billy at Fauve sa contempora­ry dance with the song “L’Enfer de Stromae.” dito nakakuha sila ng 53.5% audience votes.

“I don’t believe it, it’s a dream for me,” expressed an emotional Billy as he received his trophy. I can’t believe it!” sabi ni Billy matapos itanghal na champion.

Ito naman ang unang pa-shoutout ni Coleen sa social media nang manalo ang asawa, “You are an AMAZING person, and I am soooo so blessed that our son gets to look up to you and have you as his Dad.

“You amaze me every time. I love you, and I’m SO HAPPY for you! You deserve all of this and more,” sabi ni Coleen.
