"America's Next Top Model" winner Nyle DiMarco has been crowned the winner of Season 22 of "Dancing With the Stars," beating out UFC fighter Paige VanZant and "GMA" meteorologist Ginger Zee.

VanZant placed second while Zee, who suffered an injury and was on the fence about even dancing in the final episode, came in third.

"This is such an amazing feeling. This whole thing has been so incredible because of this man. I owe everything to him," said DiMarco's pro partner, Peta Murgatroyd.

In addition to performing two routines the first night of the finale, the couples were tasked with performing a third - a 24-hour fusion challenge dance, in which they fused two contrasting styles of dance into one routine with only a day of preparation. DiMarco and Murgatroyd earned a perfect score for their cha-cha/tango fusion dance, sealing the mirror ball trophy for the fan-favorite dancers.
