Team GB’s athletes cheered and waved Union flags as they entered the Olympic closing ceremony

Team Great Britain can be seen wearing Hawaiian-style shirts showing the emblems of every nation in Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Gold medallists Alex Yee and Bryony Page walked out as Great Britain’s flagbearers.

The smiling pair were seen in floral shirts and blue shorts.

Yee almost tripped on the surface, as did other flagbearers.

The Prime Minister has congratulated Team GB’s athletes and praised them for inspiring a new generation of athletes as the Paris Olympics come to an end.

Sir Keir Starmer posted on X, formerly Twitter: “To all our incredible @TeamGB athletes and support staff, well done and congratulations.

“You’re bringing home more than just medals. You’ve inspired a new generation of athletes while entertaining a nation. Thank you.”
