Celebrity Race Across the World 2025 winners revealed

Spoiler warning: This article reveals the winners of Celebrity Race Across the World.

Broadcaster Roman Kemp and his sister, singer-songwriter Harleymoon, have triumphed in the latest series of the BBC’s Race Across the World.

They reached the final checkpoint before the other three pairs of contestants after a 33-day, 5,900-kilometer (3,600-mile) quest across Central America.

The couple reached the finish line two minutes before EastEnders actress Molly Rainford and her fiancé, TV and radio host Tyler West, and broadcaster Anita Rani and her father Bal finished six hours later.

Derry Girls actor Dylan Llewellyn and his mother Jackie came in fourth place, having decided to drop out of the race at the start of the episode due to limited funds.

Wednesday’s final episode covered the last stage, a 1,000-kilometer route from Medellín to the Guajira Peninsula in Colombia.

In previous stages, the teams had to make their way through countries such as Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica and Panama.

They did it without using phones or traveling by plane, and on a budget of £950 per person, the equivalent cost of flying the route.

This was the third celebrity series of BBC’s Race Across the World and has attracted around six million viewers.

Roman and Harleymoon Kemp are children of Spandau Ballet’s Martin Kemp and his wife Shirlie.

Roman is known as a co-host of BBC One’s The One Show and a former Capital breakfast show DJ, while Harleymoon is a country singer who has been releasing music for five years.

The final trip saw them take a 4×4, go for a boat ride and run off a cliff on foot, with Ronan describing it as “the biggest adrenaline rush and biggest thrill I’ve ever had”.

Harleymoon added: “I’ve never raced like that in my entire life.”

Rainford, 25, is known for playing Anna Knight in EastEnders from 2023 and reaching the final of Strictly Come Dancing in 2022.

She met Kiss radio host West when he was also a contestant on the same Strictly series, and they announced their engagement earlier this year.

Rani is known as co-presenter of BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour and BBC One’s Countryfile, and ran with her father Balvinder Singh Nazran, a semi-retired businessman.

Dylan Llewellyn, who has been running with his mother Jackie, is known for playing James in the hit comedy Derry Girls, as well as his roles in Big Boys and Beyond Paradise.
