To which Christopher replied: "She thinks she is."
The duo danced to Meghan Trainor's 'Dear Future Husband', a seemingly apt song as Lexie added: "Because he's my future husband."
The pair went on to receive four yeses from the judges, putting them through to the next round of the TV show.
Other stars of the night included father-and-son singing duo Tim Goodacre, 43, and Jack, 12 who received Simon Cowell's golden buzzer sending them straight through to the semi-finals after they performed a track they had composed together, called The Lucky Ones, while playing their guitars.

Upon hearing the news and being covered in gold confetti, Tim lay down on the ground while Jack burst into tears.
Cowell, who is father to four-year-old son Eric, told them: "You are special, that was fantastic, just magic.
"I love that song. It reminded me a bit of my boy. That was a moment, so pure, so great."

Also landing four yeses were singers The Ratpackers - made up of Dennis DeMille, 51, and Marvin Muoneke, 22 - who delivered a crowd pleasing rendition of New York New York, and alien dance group Baba Yega.
Not so lucky were Mongolian singer Bat-Erdene Nyamdavaa and stand-up comedian Martin Westgate, who left disappointed.
Variety performer Jon Davison, 55, from London, was also unlucky and got four nos from the judges, as did dance act Humanimals and a seven-piece American style-tribal belly dance group from Berkshire.
