From the moment Hannah Harper auditioned for American Idol, she connected with Carrie Underwood, the only female judge on the Season 24 panel. Underwood was brought to tears over Harper’s original songString Cheese,” which dove into the struggles of motherhood (something Underwood, a mother of two herself, was able to relate to).

After Harper was named the winner during the May 11 finale, Underwood was one of the first people to congratulate her on stage, and Harper reflected on that moment in an interview with TV Insider.
