Westmeath's Rachel Duffy was crowned the winner on Tuesday night.
The newly crowned Rose of Tralee has returned to the midlands.
Westmeath's Rachel Duffy received a warm welcome home to Rosemount after winning the title in Kerry.
The 23-year-old was left stunned when Daithi O Se called out her name on Tuesday night.
Ms. Duffy, who became the first Westmeath Rose to claim the title, sang a rendition of Dolores Keane's Teddy O' Neill during her interview on stage on Monday night.
Hundreds of people gathered at her local GAA grounds to meet her and several of her fellow roses.
She will be joining Will Faulkner on Midlands Today on Monday morning.
