Following a series of painstaking challenges and teamwork triumphs, The Amazing Race Australia has officially come to an end for 2023.
Kick-starting their adventure in New Delhi, the famous faces of The Amazing Race Australia’s first-ever Celebrity Edition embarked on the first leg of their journey, with the race seeing the Australian stars compete across India, Malaysia, Cambodia, and Borneo for their spot at the final pit stop.

Despite each of the celebrity duos tackling the race with resilience and determination not everyone was able to conquer the challenge of The Amazing Race Australia, with only three celebrity pairs reaching the final leg of the race.
Starting the final leg of The Amazing Race on equal footing, the final three pairs were neck-and-neck as they ran through inner-city Kuala Lumpur before reaching their first fear-factor-style challenge.
After perfecting a hip-hop routine during their second challenge, the teams raced towards their final task, with each duo testing their memory with a race recap gallery.
Following an intense race to the finish, TV personality Darren McMullen and his nephew Tristan Dougan were the first to arrive at the final pitstop.
Despite arriving first, the pair made the heartwarming decision to wait for sisters Emma and Hayley Watkins and mother-daughter duo Alli and Angie Simpson to arrive, with the final three pairs stepping on the mat together to each claim a portion of the $100,000 prize money for their chosen charity.
“Listen, it was our decision… We didn’t want to step on the carpet without everyone here. We don’t want to take first… We want to wait for all of you and do it together because we think that we all deserve something for our charities,” Darren told Emma and Hayley, adding, “We couldn’t take this [win]. We’ve all worked so hard on this.”
“All three teams today could have won, so to be able to share it with the girls, it’s awesome. It’s so good.”
After waiting for Alli and Angie to arrive, the final three pairs stepped on the mat together, with host Beau Ryan crowning all of the final three teams as the winners of The Amazing Race Australia 2023.
