NICK Knowles' new wife Katie has hit back after bride shamers slammed her for looking "disinterested" at their six-figure wedding.
The DIY SOS star tied the knot with Katie, who's 27 years his junior, at an Essex stately home last month, before they celebrated their marriage on a £2k a day honeymoon yacht.

Despite being back at home now, Katie is still enjoying reliving her special day, and took to TikTok to share a video of Nick's emotional reaction to her walking down the aisle.
"When he looks at you like this..." she wrote over the top.
In the clip, Katie was seen looking stunning in a white dress with unusual blue detailing, as she walked down to meet Nick, who had opted for a powder pink tux for his big day.
The 62-year-old appeared overcome with emotion as he greeted Katie at the altar with a kiss.
And the pair were then seen waiting to exchange their vows.
"Walking up the aisle to the man who said he wouldn't cry… and completely failed," Katie wrote in the caption.
However, a lot of comments pointed out that while Nick couldn't stop staring giddily at his soon-to-be wife, Katie seemed to be struggling to make eye contact with her man.
"She doesn't look interested," one wrote.
"Did she really want to marry him?" another questioned.
"I thought the same," a third commented.

"He keeps looking at her wistfully but she looks as if she didn't want to be there….strange…." someone else said.
"Looks like she's ready to go home lol," another added.
"She doesn't look at him and looks like she doesn't want to be there," someone else said.
"Well you look very unhappy," another insisted.
"Yeah I'm getting 'I'm being forced into this' vibes from her," someone else cruelly wrote.
"Awww she's the most unhappy bride I've ever seen and I hate that for her if it was just nerves," another said.
Wedding makeup do's and dont's
Paige Williams, Founder & CEO of the iconic P.Louise makeup brand shared her tips.
DO: Go timeless over trendy
We all love a trend babe, but for your wedding day? Let's keep it classic. Think soft glam, radiant skin, neutral tones with a pop of sparkle - You want to look back in ten years and still be obsessed with your glam. Classic never goes out of style.
DON'T: Try something totally new
Your wedding day is not the time to switch it up with neon liner or completely new brows babe. You want to feel like you, just the most elevated, glowing version. Stick to what you know makes you feel confident and gorgeous.
DO: Prioritise long-wear formulas
Your wedding is a marathon, not a sprint. You're not just walking down the aisle, you're dancing, hugging, crying, and posing all day long. You need makeup that's in it for the long haul. Go for waterproof, transfer-proof & cry-proof products. Your face needs to slay from 'I do' to the last dance and be able to handle those happy tears.
DON'T: Overload your base
Babes, less is more. You want coverage, not cake. Go for that breathable, buildable base that lets your real skin glow through. You're aiming for flawless, not flat. Trust me, your photos will thank you.
DO: Book a trial
Non-negotiable. Whether you're DIY-ing your glam or booking a MUA, a trial is your makeup dress rehearsal. Test it in daylight, take selfies, wear it for hours. It's the only way to know it'll hit just right on the day.
DON'T: Forget your neck & chest
Don't stop the glam at your jawline, babe. Blend that foundation, bronzer and glow down to your neck and chest, we're going for seamless, snatched and sculpted from every angle. You're the main event, let it show.
"It's 10 seconds of video out of an entire 13 hour day meant to be about the way he looks at me," Katie hit back.
"I was so nervous, every time I saw him crying I started and I had a full face of make up.
"I wanted to stay on my face for more than just the first hour of the day!"
"God forbid someone is nervous on their wedding day in front of people," she added in response to another comment, while saying to someone else that she gave "no f**ks" about the criticism.
And there were also those in the comments who defended Katie.
"I didn't look at my husband either when saying my vows as I didn't want to cry," one wrote.
"We've been married for 20 years. I wouldn't read too much into it!"
"Ffs folk read so much into things," another added.
"If they make each other happy then leave them be. Getting married in front of a room of people and cameras is nerve wracking.
"Wishing you guys all the best."
"Finally a bride as nervous as I was on my wedding day," a third commented.
"Someone came up to me after and said 'you looked so stern'.
"It made me so sad because it was one of the happiest moments for me but yes I was nervous and hate being the centre of attention."
