Eureka OHara made it all the way to the final of RuPauls Drag Race in season 10 after being forced to drop out in season nine due to injury.
The Tennessee queens knee popped during a dance challenge and she later discovered she needed surgery for a torn ACL.
It was a long road to recovery – meaning reaching the final was that much sweeter.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk, the 27-year-old said: Im so proud. I couldnt be happier, and my surgeon is probably sitting somewhere smiling, too.
Eureka faced off against Aquaria in a lip sync for your life which ended in a double save – the first to ever happen in a finale – meaning both of them had to fight Kameron Michaels to be crowned Americas Next Drag Superstar.

I was anxious, I was excited that I was in the final lip-sync, and I disappointed that it wasnt just two of us because I really wanted to be in the top two.
Eureka wore a dress which said The Big Girl and a tearaway reveal finishes off the phrase as Wins.

However, it was Aquaria that took the crown – but theres no bad blood there.
She told us: Im absolutely disappointed that I didnt win, but I also learned that Im not defined by my size or this win. And thats the best win a big girl can have.
RuPauls Drag Race season ten is available to stream on Netflix.
