BGT Stavros Flatley almost unrecognisable as he shows off jaw-dropping weight loss

Britain's Got Talent legend Stavros Flatley has showed off his impressive weight loss while posing with the cast of A Place In The Sun.

The father and son duo of Demetrios and Michalakis ‘Lagi’ Andreas shot to fame after appearing on the third series of the talent show in 2009.

They reached the final of that series and later returned for The Champions series in 2019 where they finished as runners up.

The name of their act is derived from Irish dancer Michael Flatley and their act wowed fans due to their hysterical dance moves and topless performances.

People may remember dad Demi for his big Cyprus tattoo on his chest, which he regularly flaunted in front of the cameras.

Since then, he has embarked on a lifestyle change and dramatically shed the pounds, Daily Star reports.

In a new picture, he showcased his jaw-dropping weight loss as he posed beside the cast from A Place In The Sun.

Meanwhile, Demi proudly lifted up his shirt to show off his signature tattoo on his slimmed down stomach as he beamed to the camera.
