The Voice: Special song battle between real-life couple Jenna and Yorke ends with a shocking twist

Fans of The Voice received a very unexpected gift on Sunday evening.

Real-life couple Jenna Hudson, 26, and Yorke Heath, 29, faced off in the battle rounds on the episode.

The showdown marked the first time a competing couple was nominated for a song battle against each other.

In a battle for their spot on mentor Kate Miller Heidke’s team, Jenny and Yorke chose Paramore’s song The Only Exception.

Ultimately, it was Yorke who emerged victorious, beating Jenna in the singing competition.

While Jenna admitted she found it “weird” to compete against her partner in front of a live studio audience, she added that she was happy with the outcome regardless.

‘“At first it seemed strange to be on stage and compete against your regular partner,” she said.

“But I really enjoyed it. I’m so happy he won, he really deserves it. It’s really his time to shine.”

Shortly after the results were announced, Yorke grabbed the microphone and asked for everyone’s attention and for Jenna to come on stage.

He then made the hearts of the studio audience and his mentors beat faster by getting down on one knee and asking his beloved to marry him.

Jenna added that the proposal came completely unexpectedly.

“I was so surprised when he asked me up on stage, I really had no idea what he was going to do,” she said.

“I felt a little uncomfortable because I remember thinking it was the judges’ turn and not ours!” Jenna continued.

Fortunately, she said yes and Yorke admitted that the wedding entertainment had already been arranged, as Guy Sebastian had offered to sing at the couple’s wedding.

“It all became official when I saw the judges run onto the stage and I saw LeAnn and Kate hugging Jenna,” he said.

Yorke chose a stunning engagement ring for Jenna, giving her a classic yellow gold solitaire ring, with a natural round brilliant-cut diamond, from Adelaide jeweller Gerard McCabe.

“I remember thinking, ‘Don’t lose the Gerard McCabe ring,’” he said.

“I had it in my pocket all day and I was afraid it would fall out on stage or I would lose it.”

“It was all official when I saw all the judges running on stage, I saw LeAnn and Kate hugging Jenna,” Yorke said. “I was over the moon when Guy Sebastian came up to us and offered to sing at our wedding!”
