The Voice fans received a very unexpected gift on Sunday night.
Contestants Jenna Hudson, 26, and Yorke Heath, 29, a real-life couple, were forced to face off in the episode’s battle rounds.
This showdown was the first time a competing couple was nominated for a song battle against each other.
In a battle to keep their place on mentor Kate Miller Heidke’s team, Jenny and Yorke chose Paramore’s song The Only Exception.
In the end it was Yorke who emerged triumphant, beating out Jenna in the singing category.
While she admitted that competing against her partner in front of a live studio audience was “weird,” Jenna added that she was happy with the outcome nonetheless.
‘At first it felt strange to be on stage in a battle against your long-time partner,’ she said.
“But I really enjoyed it. I’m really happy that he won. He really deserves it. It’s his time to shine.”

Shortly after the results were announced, Yorke took the microphone and called for everyone’s attention and for Jenna to join him on stage.
He then made the hearts of the audience and the studio mentors alike beat faster when he got down on one knee and proposed to his beloved.
Jenna added that the proposal was completely unexpected.
“I was very surprised when he asked me on stage. I had no idea what he was about to do,” she said.

“I felt a little awkward as I remember thinking it was the judges’ turn to speak, not ours,” Jenna continued.
Luckily, she said “yes” and Yorke admitted that the wedding entertainment was already secured and Guy Sebastian offered to sing at the couple’s wedding.
“It was all made official when I saw all the judges running on stage, I saw LeAnn and Kate hugging Jenna,” she said.
‘I was thrilled when Guy Sebastian approached us and offered to sing at our wedding!’
Yorke’s engagement ring choice was a huge hit with Jenna, gifting her a classic yellow gold solitaire ring, featuring a round brilliant cut natural diamond, from Adelaide jeweller Gerard McCabe.
“I remember thinking, ‘Don’t lose Gerard McCabe’s ring,'” he said.
“I had it in my pocket all day and was nervous about it falling on stage or losing it.”
