Posting a shot of the duo holding up the Glitterball Trophy, Jowita captioned her post: "First day when I met you on top of that lighthouse I knew our journey [would] be great.
"I've asked you for two things – trust and energy – and you gave me much more. Seeing you pushing the boundaries, going out of your comfort zone, working so hard throughout those 13 weeks made me the proudest teacher. You've proven everything is possible if [you're] willing to fight for it."
Paying tribute to Hamza, Jowita went on to say how proud she was of her partner saying she was "honoured" and "blessed" to dance with him adding: "You are a champion!!!! WE DID IT!"
