Portuguese transsexual bank clerk Nadia Almada, 27, of Surrey, has won reality TV show Big Brother on a huge wave of public support. And she has revealed she now has her heart set on getting married, saying that "every girl's dream is a white wedding".
Nadia, 27, became the programme's hottest ever favourite to win, and duly claimed the £63,500 prize.
With her squawking voice and grating laugh she seemed unlikely to endear herself to the British public, but became the 1-50 favourite for victory. With an exuberant character, she survived four evictions and won over the nation.
Throughout her time in the house, Nadia kept secret from her fellow housemates the fact she was born a man. As the result was announced, Nadia screamed "Oh my god" and began to shake.
Runner-up Jason grabbed her in an embrace and told her: "You've won it, you all right man?" Nadia, trembling and bewildered, repeated: "Oh my god".
Seeming stunned and in genuine shock, she left the Big Brother house flanked by fireworks. With the crowd offering rapturous applause she repeatedly mouthed "Thank you, thank you."
