London, Jan 24 : TV presenter Ulrika Jonsson, who is popularly known for her alleged affair with former England manager Sven Goran-Eriksso, has been crowned the winner of Celebrity Big Brother.

The thrilled Swedish star, 41, said: "I'm shocked I won. I was the last woman in that house.

"But I've beaten the boys and won it for my `sisters'."

Ulrika, who is rumoured to be the highest paid star with a fee of 175,000 pounds, pipped TV host Terry Christian to land the first position, reports the Daily Star.

Jonsson's win has come as a shock for the bookmakers who had predicted Hollywood actor Verne Troyer to win the show. Troyer finished on the fourth place behind rapper Coolio on the third.

The mum-of-four had a rollercoaster ride on the Channel 4 show.

She threatened to quit on several occasions because she missed her kids. And she survived three successive eviction votes. (ANI)
