Vile reaction as TV star, 62, marries 34-year-old
The wedding video of a popular British TV host has been flooded with cruel remarks after he tied-the-knot for the third time with a woman 28-years his junior. Katie Dadzie, 34, married 62-year-old Nick Knowles, the star of cult UK home reno show DIY SOS, in a lavish ceremony last month that reportedly cost 'six figures'. But after sharing a heartwarming video from their nuptials, the new Mrs Knowles became the target of cruel online trolls who bombarded her photos with a series of nasty remarks. Others flooded a video of the pair's nuptials with a barrage of abuse noting their considerable age-gap. 'Third time's a charm. Especially with someone young enough to be your daughter...' one snared. 'I thought he was waiting to give his daughter away,' scoffed another. The awful abuse sparked a wave of support from many of Katie's followers who urged others to think twice before leaving hateful remarks. 'This is Katie's personal Instagram page not a tabloid page. Please think before posting your commenting on her wedding photos,' one pleaded. 'Katie, I'm so so sorry you have had to put up with such vitriol on what should have been one of the best times of your life,' another said. As one noted: 'These awful comments! And all from women. What's happened to people that they feel the need to be so nasty about somebody's wedding day.' 'Why are people so hung up on age difference? They're a good looking couple and love is indiscriminate,' added someone else. Instead of letting the cyber bullying get to her, Katie instead decided to 'furiously hit back', and recently began responding to inappropriate comments left on wedding photos she later posted, The Sun reports. When one troll commented on the fact her new husband is almost three decades older than her by writing, 'I give it one year', Katie responded: 'Amount of f**ks given.' Another troll snared, 'I give it three months,' prompting the new bride, who is a mother-of-two, to clap back with a tongue-in-cheek comment, writing: 'I give it a year.' One speculated that neither Katie kids or Knowles' four from his two previous marriages were at the big day, prompting her to ask: 'Did you see that in the front row?' The couple met in 2019 when their Katie's daughters and Nick's youngest son, Eddie, became playmates. However, they didn't get together until 2021 when the pair 'bumped into each other' and were both single. 'And that was that. It's very handy to have kids the same ages – they play together really well, which is lovely,' he told Closer previously. In their wedding snaps and video, the smitten pair could be seen enjoying their first slow dance together after exchanging vows at Braxted Park in Essex while surrounded by friends and family. Nick and Katie reported 'spared no expense on the big day' which is rumoured to have cost six figures with their lavish spending continuing into their Ibiza honeymoon which has been estimated to cost £2000 (around $4000 Australian Dollars) a night. The couple chartered a luxury yacht to sail around the party island and were seen snuggling and cuddling as they soaked up the sun.

Nick Knowles's new wife Katie hits back at trolls who targeted them over their 28-year age-gap
Nick Knowles 's new wife Katie Dadzie has brutally hit back at online critics of their 28-year age gap. The lingerie business owner, 34, tied the knot with the DIY SOS star, 62, last month and their wedding pictures on Instagram have been slammed by naysayers. Katie is now hitting back and in response to a comment that read 'I give it one year', she responded: 'Amount of f**ks given.' Another critic claimed that the couple's children from prior relationships did not attend the wedding, to which Katie replied: 'Did you see that in the front row?' 'I give it three months,' added another troll and Katie jokingly hit back: 'I give it a year.' The hate comments came after Nick and Katie shared glimpses into their lavish wedding on social media. The DIY SOS presenter cut a sharp figure in a dusky pink jacket after exchanging vows with his lingerie brand boss bride during a lavish six-figure wedding at Braxted Park, Essex. And the fun continued into the night, as the couple shared a series of sweet photos and clips on Instagram from their happy day. Katie wowed in a stunning second white bridal dress for the reception while Nick looked dapper in a pink blazer. The newlyweds showed off their fun side as they posed in a photobooth wearing costume hats and Katie held a wired telephone. The couple began dating in 2021 after they met when their children became friends at a play centre and got engaged in 2023. Katie and the TV star have been subject to cruel trolling during their relationship, with critics mocking their age difference and financial setup. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, about the 'gold digger' jibes, Katie admitted they don't get to her as much as they used to because she and Nick know it's not true. Katie said of their age gap: 'I think at the start, it was probably more irritating, especially for my family. But now those comments kind of just pass over me because we both know it's not true. Katie stressed: 'Nick works hard, he has what he has. I work hard, I have what I have and then we buy each other stuff.' Katie continued: 'We're both really comfortable with where we are with that and you will always get it because there's an age gap. 'I know plenty of people who are together and the same age where someone's using the other one for money and they're not happy. 'So as long as I know it's not true and he knows it's not true, I think that's, that's pretty much all that matters.' Nick has an estimated £7.5 million net worth but Katie has built up an impressive lingerie brand, having launched Boa Boa in 2022. She has proved to be her own best advert for the brand, modelling the skimpy looks to her 102,000 Instagram followers.

DIY SOS star Nick Knowles, 62, kisses new wife Katie Dadzie, 34, onboard £2k a day yacht on romantic Ibiza honeymoon
DIY SOS star Nick Knowles kissed his new wife Katie Dadzie onboard a £2k-a-day luxury yacht as the newlyweds soaked up the sun on their Ibiza honeymoon. Presenter Nick, 62, and his lingerie brand boss bride, 34, looked utterly smitten as they shared loved-up snaps from their lavish getaway. 10 10 It comes just weeks after they tied the knot in a six-figure ceremony at Braxted Park in Essex. In photos shared to Instagram today, the pair enjoyed a blissful day at sea. Katie flaunted her figure in a skimpy orange and white floral bikini with a halter neckline and tie-side bottoms, while Nick kept cool in a white linen shirt and beige shorts as he took the helm. The couple were seen beaming as they cruised the Mediterranean, with Katie later slipping on a white crochet miniskirt and stretching out on an orange towel to sunbathe. They later jumped aboard a tender to head into shore, where they enjoyed a boozy beach lunch. Nick, shielding himself from the heat with a woven western-style hat, was seen sipping wine in the shade. The Strictly star wrote in his caption: 'Wonderful time at sea cruising for a while on honeymoon. "And yes we paid but think it was so well organised I should mention the crew Carlos & Patricia and the boat hire folks @charteralia. "Lunch on Formantera was special but cruising the islands, swimming and sunbathing on a Cat under sail is something special." The honeymoon follows their extravagant wedding earlier this month. Rumoured to be costing six-figures, the couple's beautiful venue is the the same place Rylan Clark married ex-husband Dan Neal in 2015. In photos from their big day, Nick wore a dapper pale pink tuxedo with black lapels, matching black trousers and a black bow tie. In one sweet picture, Nick could be seen adjusting his friend's bow tie to ensure everything is perfect. Standing proudly next to Katie, the dapper groom chatted to guests while the photographer tried to shepherd everyone together. Meanwhile, Kate looked relaxed as she smoothed back her hair while holding on to a glass of fizz. Wearing a beautiful white gown with a large blue floral design decorating it, the sweetheart neckline accentuates her figure perfectly. Accessorising the outfit with some bling, she added a diamond necklace and an extra ring and bracelet to her right hand. The Sun previously revealed that Nick and Katie have splashed the cash for their big day, with insiders telling us it's set them back six-figures and guests are in for an unforgettable day. A source said: 'Nick and Katie's big day is taking place at Braxted Park, a stunning location in Essex. 'He's invited all of his famous pals, including his Strictly co-stars so it's going to be a proper showbiz bash. 'Katie's dress is beautiful and is going to blow people away. Nick and Katie's guests will be treated to delicious food and amazing entertainment - really no expense has been spared.' Katie and Nick got engaged in 2023 after getting together in 2021. They met when Katie's daughters befriended Nick's youngest lad Eddie at a play centre. Katie was accused of being a 'gold digger' by internet trolls when the pair went public with their relationship. But Nick insisted lingerie firm boss Katie was 'wealthier and more successful' than him. Nick has been married twice before. He and first wife Gillian, who share children Tuesday and Charlie, divorced in 2000. He then married Eddie's mum Jessica Moor in 2012, but they split in 2016. Nick is also dad to son TJ from his relationship with dancer Paula Beckett. Nick was determined to get back to 100% fitness in time for his wedding to Katie. The DIY SOS star revealed earlier this year that he was learning to walk again after suffering an injury on Strictly Come Dancing. 10 10 10 10 10 10

I dated Nick Knowles & know why this marriage won't last – he has ‘shiny penny' syndrome & always had a wandering eye
WHEN it comes to heartthrobs, Nick Knowles might not be the first name that springs to mind for many women. He's openly admitted to being a workaholic, struggles with flat-pack furniture, and has even faced criticism for reportedly calling women in the North East "munters." 11 Yet, with a string of glamorous exes, four children with three different women, and now a wife 28 years his junior, the 62-year-old must be doing something right. Last week, Nick tied the knot with his fiancée, Katie Dadzie, 34, a lingerie entrepreneur, in a stunning ceremony at the luxurious Braxted Park Estate in Essex. The DIY SOS star and mum-of-two were all smiles as they posed outside the grand country house - rumoured to have cost six figures - with Katie turning heads in a striking blue and white gown. But will it all be as perfect as it seems? A source, who previously dated Nick, suggests Katie may need to be cautious. 'Obviously he's been married before, he's got kids, but he's never really settled down, has he?' she said. 'He's been with some beautiful and intelligent women – long-term partners like Suzi Perry – and had some stunning girlfriends, but he always manages to f*** it up because he goes for the next shiny object.' Before his TV fame, Nick was married to Gillian, the mother of two of his children, Tuesday, 26, and Charlie, 27. After their split, he dated beauty therapist Paula Beckett-Vass for two years, and they welcomed a son, Tyrian-J. Nick Knowles and wife Katie Dadzie show off their dance moves on wedding night In 2000, Nick began a relationship with TV and radio presenter Suzi Perry, but the couple split three years later. He then met his second wife, Jessica Moor, in 2009. They married in September 2012 and welcomed a son, Edwin, two years later, but separated in January 2016. Nick was also linked to Emmerdale actress Gemma Oaten after they were spotted looking cosy at the TV Choice Awards, with the pair later enjoying a romantic getaway to Edinburgh. But is this marriage destined for a happy ending? The source remains doubtful. 'I reckon she's probably given him an ultimatum like, 'Marry me.' He'll probably go along with it until the next shiny penny comes along in a year's time when he's bored of the sex – because, let's be honest, being in a relationship gets boring,' she said. 'I don't think marriage is going to be the thing that settles him down. It's just a piece of paper that he knows he can get out of. 'He's not the kind of person who wants longevity – he's got a wandering eye. He's very sexy, a red-blooded male, and he makes it very obvious. 'There's no denying that if he has eyes for you, he'll make sure you're aware of it. 11 11 'That's the impression I got with him… he'll do things like tell you what room number he's staying in without you even asking. He'll say it as a joke, but you know he's being serious.' The pair "hooked up" because they were working on a TV production with him. "We were all out for drinks and he was very flirty, making eye contact, very flirty and let me know which room he was staying in," she said. She also explained that Television sets - especially on location - often involves a lot of the staff sleeping with each other. "Sh***ing while on location is incredibly common," she explained. "It happens all the time. The cameramen, sound recordists, even the talent, and contributors you make the shows with. He is very charming and he is lovely to talk to. Although he's a bit cocky, he is a nice guy "It happens all the time. And yes, married men, yes, single men, people that have got girlfriends. "It is prolific - particularly because you're on location all the time. You're away from home. Staying in a hotel makes it so much easier." The source warned Katie to be wary when Nick is away filming. She said: 'Back in the day when I knew him, Nick was a champion of shaggers. "I slept with him while out on location, and there's no way anyone could find out. He was single at the time. 'You might think you can call him at 9pm and check up on him, but someone could easily sneak into his room at 3am and leave by 6am. 11 11 11 'If he's going to do it, he's going to do it – and he'll always attract women because he's on telly. "I was attracted to his swagger, confidence and he's a good looking bloke. Everybody fawned over him. "Whilst I pretended I wasn't interested, of course I was flattered and I was young and thought lets go for it. "If I went back now knowing what I know, I'd probably still do it because, you know, you're flattered and you're like, well, 'why not? I'm single, I can do what I want, can't I? ' "With Nick and I, it was a buildup of us working together over time with a lot of flirtation. "He is very charming and he is lovely to talk to. Although he's a bit cocky, he is a nice guy. 'I think just needs to watch for the warning signs. From my experience, we didn't swap numbers, there was no texting – it all happened on location, leaving no trace. 'I've slept with him and got away scot-free.' She continued: 'He's not someone who can truly settle down – I just don't think it's in his nature. 'I'd advise her to keep an eye on him. You can't stop someone from cheating, but remember – a leopard never changes its spots. 'She might have brought him down the aisle, but that doesn't mean he'll change. 'He's got something about him, and he bloody knows it. He's a peacock.' Fabulous have approached Nick's representatives for a comment. 11
