The 19-year old Lodens who is also a 3-time Jujitsu World Champion was in shock after they were announced winners. He went emotional and later one praised other finalists for their excellent performance.
"I am happy to be a three-time world jujitsu champion, but winning 'Belgium's Got Talent' with Natascha is just fantastic," he said. "I never expected this, and it feels so great," Lodens exclaimed.
His dance partner Van Es, on the other hand attributed their victory to her many years of training in acrobatics and their good connection to the audience.
"It was a strong line-up in the finals, with 11 other great acts," said Van Es. "So it really came unexpected. We gave everything on that stage for the last time, and I think we managed to make the audience emotionally involved, that we just made this tiny chance to win," said Van es.

Salamat po sa lahat ng mga Belgian at mga kababayan kong Pinoy na sumuporta kina Ian at Natascha. Napakalaking tulong po ang nagawa nyo para sila ay manalo,she said.
