MasterChef Australia fans are fuming after spotting a detail that they believe reveals the winner of the 2025 Back To Win season.
A promotional poster for the series shared earlier this year shows a number of contestants - and fans have noted that only one of the people pictured is still in the competition.
Of the top nine still competing on the series, Laura Sharrad is the single contestant who featured on the poster and who also made it to the top ten.
'If you believe that the poster tells you the winner, Laura is the only one left from the promo poster. So I guess the winner has been announced,' wrote one fan on Facebook.
'I hope it's not her, she's painful. I'd love to see Callum win,' one more chimed in.

'I stopped watching because I'm sick of watching Laura cook and getting the most air time,' someone else wrote.
'When they start the program, Laura is holding up a trophy,' another agreed, referencing signs Laura wins.
The promotional poster has long been the source of fan speculation.
Taking to Reddit earlier this year, one fan of the beloved cooking show pointed out that the promotional picture on the network's streaming service 10Play featured mostly eliminated contestants, leading them to wonder whether it shone a light on who the winner would be.
'Has anyone noticed how many contestants on this advert for Masterchef on 10Play app has already been eliminated??' the Reddit user captioned the screenshot.
'Darsh, Steph, Sav and Tim all eliminated... could this be a sign?' they asked.
The fan then went on to predict who may be facing the chopping block next based on the poster.
'Maybe Laura and Declan will be out the door soon too??'

'If you believe that the poster tells you the winner, Laura is the only one left from the promo poster. So I guess the winner has been announced,' wrote one fan.
Other MasterChef devotees flooded the comments of the Reddit post with their takes on the theory.
One person noted that the adverts were probably made before filming had commenced and therefore randomly featured.
'Think someone mentioned it already but [by] the time they made this [ad], they haven't finished filming.
'Thus they just put random people on the pic,' they said.
Another person theorised that they used the most popular faces of the show for the poster.
'I think they just use whoever is most popular / easy to attract viewers rather than based on who makes it far (plus it's already mentioned these are done before filming is done),' they wrote.
'Steph has a huge IG following so makes sense why she’s front and centre.'
'Laura definitely won’t go before top 10,' another person confidently predicted.
