Ellie, your support means the world to me, and I couldn’t have achieved this without you,” Harris humbly expressed, capturing the essence of his appreciation.

Regarded as the most successful British dance act in history, Harris boasts an impressive tally of 10 UK number-one singles and four UK number-one albums.

Amidst the celebration, Harris shared a heartwarming moment with his wife Vick Hope’s parents, seated beside him at the event.
