BGT's Stavros Flatley star Lagi Demetriou gets married 6 months after welcoming baby

Britain's Got Talent star Lagi Demetriou has got married.

Lagi, 26, who was part of the Stavros Flatley duo alongside his dad Demetrios, revealed he has married partner Annika Crawford.

The pair, who share a six-month-old baby, married in Cyprus in an idyllic ceremony by the sea.

Lagi and Demetrios rose to fame in 2008 on Britain's Got Talent, when they impressed the judges with their moves, and came third behind Diversity and Susan Boyle.

Announcing the news on Instagram, the TV star shared a picture of him posing beside his wife, who he welcomed daughter Xenia with in March.

Lagi looked dapper in a grey three-piece suit and green tie, while Annika wore a white, form fitting dress.

"Thank you to every single person that made this night so special," Lagi penned in the caption of his social media post.

"All our brides and grooms men, and everyone else who done everything they could for us! We love you all."

One picture saw the couple look lovingly into each other's eyes as they stood on a hill top, the sea and sunset in the distance.

Another, jokey picture, saw Lagi bending down and handing a bouquet of green and white flowers to his beloved while grinning at the couple, and Annika put her hand to her mouth in mock amazement.

BGT judge Amanda Holden commented on the post, writing: "Stunning."

On his InstaStory, Lagi also shared photos from wedding guests, which saw the couple dancing in front of a Mr & Mrs sign, with sparklers going off in behind them.

Another photo saw the couple leave the church, the entrance garlanded by green and white flowers, as friends and family threw confetti.

The pair got engaged in 2020, after five years together.

Lagi, who lives in Cyprus, became a father on March 31 and shared a snap of his newborn baby's hand.

He captioned the selection of photos: "To another new chapter with my beautiful wife to be. I love you @neekzs."

Lagi was just 12 when he performed the iconic Greek dance alongside his dad to the judges.

Inspired by Lord of the Dance star Michael Flatley, they wore leather trousers and blonde wigs with a black strap across their heads.

Their audition was branded one of the most iconic of all time on the show, but wasn't enough to crown them winners.

Lagi appeared once more in 2019 on Britain's Got Talent: The Champions, before stepping away from dancing and opening a barber shop in Cyprus.

But for his dad Demi, it was impossible to drop his passion and he reformed Stavros Flatley with his nephew Samson, 19.

Speaking to MailOnline, Lagi said: "When we got to The Champions, I thought this was the right time to leave. But Simon Cowell told me not to quit forever. So I will return for some shows."
