Newlyweds Nick Knowles and wife Katie packed on the PDA as they enjoyed their first public outing as a married couple on Friday. The DIY SOS presenter, 62, and his new spouse, 34, were all smiles as they shared a smooch at day four of Royal Ascot.

Nick Knowles and Katie tied the knot in a lavish six-figure ceremony at the start of June after being together for over four years. The happy couple first crossed paths back in 2019 and made their relationship official two years later in 2021.

Basking in their newlywed bliss, Strictly Come Dancing star Nick and Katie looked dapper as they joined race goers and celebrities like Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo at the jewel in the crown of the UK racing calendar.

At the star-studded event, Katie planted a smacker on her new husband while sporting a blue and white frock that sported a strikingly similar wedding dress.

She flashed a radiant smile for the camera while finishing off her look with a chic navy hat and elevated her stature with strappy nude heels.

As the couple showed they were still very much on their honeymoon, Nick looked dapper in a light blue silk waistcoat and a black suit.

According to reports, the event cost upwards of $6,000 for Nick and Katie’s special day. Nick donned a light pink tuxedo jacket, black pants, and a matching black bow tie to complete the look. A purple flower was adorning his lapel to complete his look.

Katie meanwhile donned a traditional wedding gown to make a statement. She chose a white gown with blue flowers instead of the typical all-white dress. She chose full-glam bridal makeup and elegantly styled her hair in a bun. She paired a long veil with a statement necklace and a long veil to complete her look.

The couple’s paths first reconnected in 2019 when Katie’s daughters and Eddie, Nick’s youngest son, met at a play center and became friends. Katie owns a business selling “lactation products for breastfeeding mothers,” along with her lingerie and sex toy business.

Nick and I made the proposal while we were in New Orleans two years ago. Prior to the wedding, Katie and her closest friends and family have been huddled together in a hen-do surrounded by her closest friends and family.

Katie, who has two children and juggling motherhood, has to figure out how to justify the significant age difference between her and Nick. She’s not the first younger woman to be associated with the famous person, though.

During a West End show date in 2019, Nick was spotted snuggling up to 26-year-old PR guru Emily Hallinan. He dated marketing whiz Rebecca Kearns, who is alleged to be more than three decades his junior, the year before.

Post-breakup with Rebecca, Nick was snapped looking rather close with Emmerdale actress Gemma Oaten at the TV Choice Awards in September 2016.

However, the photos signaled the pair’s relationship, with Gemma describing the incident as “a Sunday morning when we were lying in bed and all these texts about us being photographed together came through.” He completely changed in a matter of seconds. He and how his family would be affected by this was the focus. He claimed it didn’t matter to me, but it was really cruel. I experienced sneezing.

She continued, “I asked, Do you want to throw away what we have?” Nothing has been done improperly. But he just dropped me like a ton of bricks. I believed he had a true relationship with him, and he had no desire to reveal anything.

Bears inflict first loss on Blaze, Essex cruise to win

With a 25-run victory over Edgbaston, the Bears won the Women’s T20 Blast, taking on the Blaze for the first time.

The hosts batted first before winning the toss, winning 172-6 with Sterre Kalis scoring the only goal with 54.

The Blaze then fell from 71-1 to 83-4, and with Em Arlott taking three wickets, Bears moved them up to second place in the table and managed only 148-8.

At Chester-le-Street, Essex cruised to a comfortable six-wicket victory over Durham.

Two top-notch teams met in the Birmingham game, both of whom had already won three of their previous games.

Bears chose to bat and got off to a good start with 59 for the opener with Meg Austin and Davina Perrin.

However, Kathryn Bryce’s superb 4-21 bat from Kathryn Bryce made the score the anchor innings for the Netherlands with 54 off 41 balls.

The Blaze’s second wicket was scored by Bryce and Tammy Beaumont by 49 runs in six overs, but the momentum changed when Bryce fell to Millie Taylor, especially when Beaumont went out for 44 in the following over.

Essex won their opening match of the series against Durham by falling to 17-4 inside four overs, with Kate Coppack and Esmae MacGregor taking the first two wickets, respectively, for the hosts.

Captain Hollie Armitage held the series together as she finished with a 47-run win, but Durham had only just passed three-figures for her lack of real support.

Essex immediately overcame the run-rate, scoring just five runs in the opening over, and never looked too much into trouble, even at 71-4.

And Essex, who are now in fifth place, completed the task with an unbeaten 34 led by Maddie Penna and Jodi Grewcock, ending a four-game losing streak.

Dua Lipa’s mega home renovations will cost almost as much as she paid for house

Dua Lipa will perform at Wembley Stadium this weekend in London in front of a large crowd, but she still has a long way to go before returning to the capital.

Dua Lipa at her Wembley gigs prior to her Pop Up shop.

Dua Lipa tonight kicks off her Wembley Stadium shows, and it appears like she could do the gig standing on her head, which she probably could.

In the hours leading up to her first of two shows at the London venue, the hugely successful singer posted photos showing her on stage preparing for the giant gigs and also a video of herself doing yoga posing upside down showing off her core strength.

She described how much she enjoys performing live in her earlier statements to Vogue, explaining that adrenaline is an incredible drug. My heart begins to race that way. I’ve said, “Oh, my God, we’re doing this,” before. And I’m on my way.

Dua also acknowledged that playing Wembley was “a huge dream, and it’s going to be quite surreal.” That seems a little scary, stadiums, you know.

She has a general plan to transform large spaces into tiny clubs, but her biggest worry is that as the rooms expand, they will feel just as intimate. She acknowledges that keeping that connection with the Wembley audience will be “no easy task.”

But she did it last year at Glastonbury by taking the stage at the Pyramid and hosting a party in bright colors for the audience who humming her performance.

Continue reading the article.

Dua, 29, also made time for herself to visit her Radical Optimism pop-up store in Shoreditch in the days before these shows, which she had co-founded. While she was there, she was seen chatting with fans, taking photos, and making her now-famous beverage, “Pickle And Jalapeo Diet Coke.”

The singing star will have been away for a while, spending two nights at Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium on June 24 and 25 before traveling to Dublin on June 27.

She was also named the UK’s most popular performer in both radio, TV, and public spaces last month. And she confirmed to Callum Turner that she is engaged to him just a week later, and they both admitted to the press that she is “obsessed” with her new ring.

Due to their hectic work schedules, the couple, who started dating in January 2024, have not yet set a wedding date.

One thing that does seem certain, though, is that London will remain Dua Lipa’s home for a long time to come. We can reveal that mega renovations at her London home are costing £6 million – nearly the same price as she paid for the house.

But it will take years to complete as workers using hand-held tools to appease posh neighbours and the local conservation group. While she’s currently zipping around the world on tour, playing at Wembley tonight, work on the home she bought for £6.75M in March 2020 could take years to finish.

The construction team has to work at a snail’s pace, using hand-held tools and machinery barely audible above whisper. The property is going through a significant transformation.

The singer was given three years to obtain planning permission for a ground-floor extension and mega-basement with a music studio, pool, gym, cinema, and chill out area before it was finally granted in March 2024.

But there were lots of rules attached to Camden Council’s approval after her plans received complaints from the local conservation group, who were concerned about the ‘loss of space’, ‘loss of trees’ and ‘drainage issues’. Her vast team of experts promised that noise would be kept to a minimum and all machinery and equipment be mounted with ‘anti-vibration isolators’.

She will have to dig at least six meters beneath the surface without affecting the property’s 17 historic trees because subsidence and flooding are a serious issue because it will be four times the size of the previous basement, measuring 310 square meters and having excavated more than 500 tonnes of soil.

A biodiverse roof garden blanket on a biodegradable carrier that provides food and habitat for the local wildlife has been agreed to by her architects.

It’s a huge job, and the star might not move in until 2027. According to property experts, the project will cost $ 6 million.

According to Leigh Ann Raines of Chic By Design, “she could be investing £3 million or more to make this a home that suits her needs, but you could also double that amount, depending on the level of bespoke customisation.”

Tina Patel, an architect, estimates that the consulting costs could easily exceed £6 million. We would anticipate costs of around £5 million when putting together the property at a modest £3, 000 per square meter for finishes, which could be overextended with specialist items.

You would also be paying between 15 and 18% for consultants’ fees, they said. The construction should take at least two years, in my opinion. “At least it seems unlikely that Dua will have an issue with the money side of things.” She made an extraordinary £1 million per WEEK from her music between 2023 and 2024, according to accounts books from her Radical Live company, which were filed in July of that year at Companies House, boosting her fortune by about £1 billion.

The star, 28, turned over an eye-watering £51.6m – up from £24.5m in 2022. And Dua’s profit increased by £13 million from the previous year, to a healthy £21.8 million.

Since Levitating, her single, was named the No. 1 song on the US 2021 charts, she hasn’t looked back. It was a feature on her album Future Nostalgia, which was her best-selling new record for the year in the United States for 2020. She has also taken on acting roles in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, which also contained Dance The Night, her fourth UK Number One single, and other roles.

And then there are the seven Brit Awards and three Grammys. She was included on the Time 100 Next list in 2021. Her collaboration with Sir Elton John, Cold Heart, became her third No1 single here and her third studio album called ‘Radical Optimism is now a year old but still loved by fans the world over. She has also had lucrative endorsement deals with Evian water and Yves Saint Laurent and is a Versace model.
