Billie and her brother Finneas O'Connell took home the Best Original Song honour for the film 'No Time To Die'.
During her acceptance speech, Billie said, "This is so-I could scream. Thank you to our 007 family, (producer) Barbara Broccoli, MGM, (director) Cary Fukunaga, Daniel Craig, Hans Zimmer...for taking our song and making it worthy of James Bond."
Finneas added, "Lastly, we want to thank our parents who have always been our biggest inspirations and heroes, and we love you as our parents and we love you as real people too."
