Worst Cooks In America Winner - Season 28

Worst Cooks Season 28 Winner

Sunday night at 8pm ET/PT on Food Network is the two-hour season 28 finale of Worst Cooks in America: Celeb Heroes vs. Villains where the winner will take home a $25,000 prize for their charity and bragging rights for their mentor.  This will be a double episode where there is an elimination during the first hour and the final recruits will compete for the prize in the second hour. The final contestants competing for the prize are Adam Rippon and Frankie Grande representing Jeff Mauro's team and the Heroes; and Corinne Olympios, Tiffany Pollard, and Wes Bergmann representing Antonia Lofaso's team and the Villains.  



The episode description for the first episode states, "The recruits compete in an intergalactic scavenger hunt called "May the Course Be with You" as they race to retrieve ingredients for their next dish. The longer they take, the less time they have to cook! Then, chefs Jeff Mauro and Antonia Lofaso invite the teams to dive into the deep with squid ink seafood pasta. The two bottom recruits face a blind elimination challenge, where they must make fresh pasta and sauce to avoid getting lost in space."


The episode description for the finale states, "For the final showdown, the remaining recruits work together in a "Celebrity Game Night" challenge to win ingredients before they must go head-to-head against their own teammates to earn a spot in the top two! In their last skill drill cook, the final four cook a composed dish to prove their worth. Then, chefs Jeff Mauro and Antonia Lofaso guide the finalists in preparing a three-course restaurant-quality meal. Judges Gino D'Acampo, Judy Joo and Kelsey Barnard Clark will blind-taste the dishes to crown the winner of $25,000 for charity!"


I will update this post with the winner once the episode airs and feel free to discuss the episode/season 28 in the comments.  I know people were wondering where Anne Burrell was this season, but based on comments she made online, it seems like she wasn't asked back for this season.
