Nick Knowles’ fiance, who is 27 years his junior, wed in a six-figure ceremony today. After dating for more than four years, Katie Dadzie and the DIY SOS star wed.
Katie, 34, and Nick, 62, first got together in 2019 and started dating again in 2021. According to reports, the pair’s special day has cost them six-figure sums.
Nick wore a light pink tuxedo jacket with black pants and a matching black bow tie to look stylish. A purple flower was adorning his lapel to complete his look.
Nick chose a pink jacket (n. c.)
Katie’s non-traditional wedding gown also stunned guests. She chose to go for a white dress with blue flower details instead of the customary all-white dress.
She went for full-glam wedding makeup and tied her hair in a bun. She then complemented her look with a long veil and a statement-making necklace.
In her white and blue gown, Katie looked stunning (n.c.).
In a play center where Nick’s daughters met and Nick’s youngest son Eddie, 9, the two first forged a friendship in 2019. Katie owns a lingerie and sex toy business, as does Boobbix, which sells “lactation products for breastfeeding mothers.”
When the pair were in New Orleans together two years ago, Nick sat on one knee. Katie has since celebrated her last date with her closest and dearest just before the big day by having a hen-do with them.
In Essex (n. c. ), the couple wed.
The significant age difference between her and Nick had to be defended by Katie, who is also a proud mother-of-two. The star has also been associated with a younger woman, but she is not the first of her kind.
As they went on a date to a West End show with each other in 2019, Nick and Emily Hallinan, 26, were seen getting close. The TV star reportedly dates marketing executive Rebecca Kearns, who is also reported to be older than him, in the prior year.
Nick and Katie (n. c.) got married.
Following an appearance at the TV Choice Awards in September 2016, Nick was photographed getting cozy with Emmerdale’s Gemma Oaten after splitting up with Rebecca.
Gemma describing the situation as “one Sunday morning when we were lying in bed and all these texts came through about us being photographed together” before describing how the photos eventually caused their relationship to split. 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.
A long veil was worn by Katie (n.c.)
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.

The major leagues in Europe and around the world may have ended, but the actions behind the pitch are intensifying. Teams are sacking coaches, signing players, and making moves to bolster their chances ahead of the campaign.
At the Roland Garros, the French Open is reaching its climax after days of action-packed games, just as the race for the 2026 World Cup heats up in Asia.
Relive these and more on First 11 — the recap of major sports stories during the week.

It’s the season of firing at Tottenham! Despite helping to break the club’s 17-year trophy drought by winning the Europa League, Ange Postecoglou was shown the exit door on Friday, becoming the latest casualty in the Premier League sack race.
The North London club finished 17th in the league, one of their worst outings in decades. Even though the team qualified for the Champions League by winning Europe’s second-tier club competition, Spurs said it was time for the Australian gaffer to go.
“Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the Club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties,” a statement on Tottenham’s official X account said.

Meanwhile, the Super Eagles have continued their preparations for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, drawing European side Russia in a friendly game in Moscow.
An own-goal by Semi Ajayi, who deflected a low cross past goalkeeper Maduka Okoye, gave Russia a 27th-minute lead. However, Genk striker Tolu Arokodare came off the bench in the second half to score his first goal for Nigeria. The match ended 1-1! Friday’s game came off the back of the Super Eagles winning the Unity Cup —an invitational tournament in England.
Nigeria are at risk of missing out on the World Cup after an abysmal start to the qualification campaign. The Super Eagles and South Africa, who will clash in a key World Cup qualifier during September, finished second and third in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

In tennis, world number one Aryna Sabalenka will be aiming for a French Open title against second-ranked Coco Gauff at Roland Garros on Saturday. It will be the first time the world’s top two players have met in a women’s Grand Slam final since Caroline Wozniacki defeated Simona Halep to win the 2018 Australian Open.
Sabalenka and Gauff faced off in the 2023 US Open final when the Belarusian led by a set before imploding as the then-teenager Gauff claimed her maiden major title.
Gauff is targeting to become only the third player to win two women’s Grand Slam titles before 22 since Maria Sharapova added the 2006 US Open to her famous 2004 Wimbledon win. The others are Swiatek and former world number one Naomi Osaka.

Sinner battled past Novak Djokovic to book a date in the final against Alcaraz, who stormed past Lorenzo Musetti. The 38-year-old Sinner will next attempt to win a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title at Wimbledon next month. Neither Sinner nor Alcaraz has ever lost a major final, but Sunday will change the trajectory.

Already, Chelsea are getting their act in place for next season with the signing of English striker Liam Delap. The Premier League giants beat off competition from Premier League rivals to land Delap from Ipswich for a reported fee of £30 million ($41 million).
Delap, 22, scored 12 Premier League goals during his sole season at Portman Road but could not prevent Ipswich making an immediate return to the Championship.
He was one of the few success stories for the Tractor Boys during a difficult season as they were relegated back to the Championship with just 22 points.

Their deaths have continued to raise concerns over the welfare of athletes in the country, but government authorities have promised to do better.
They revealed their relationship plans on Stacey and Joe: Full House, a reality series, but they are still fighting a common parenting battle.

Loose Women star Stacey Solomon and her husband Joe Swash have given a realistic perspective on their home life, admitting they have a “constant battle” with their kids. Former EastEnders actor Joe, 43, and Stacey, 35, have six children between them.
Rex, five, Rose, three, and Belle, two, all live with them. Leighton, 12, and Zachary, 17, are Stacey’s two children from previous relationships.
Harry, a son of Harry’s age, was a child of Joe and his ex Emma Sophocleous. When Joe went to court to see his son, the couple split up when their son was very young.
Parenting has become more difficult in recent years, with Stacey and Joe being forced to put their feet up over the relatable issue of screen time. Rex is now only allowed to play games for an hour at the weekend if he behaves and completes his chores at school, which is why they now refer to using the phone as “a privilege.”

In a new interview with Huffington Post, Joe explained his and Stacey’s “battle” with their son and his weekly reward of screen time. He said: “But even that, me and Stacey begrudgingly let him have that.
Continue reading the article.
We keep a watchful eye on what he’s doing and what games he’s playing even though it’s challenging because it’s a constant battle. You are aware of it, but it does concern us.
Joe explained that it’s a balancing act because he is aware that their social life includes a lot of phone access with their older children. He still wants to monitor their usage to make sure they are secure, though.
Joe acknowledges there is “no real right or wrong” with the couple when it comes to using the internet. Every parent “muddling through” and making mistakes, he continued.
Fans of the close-knit family’s life are getting a glimpse into it with their new reality series Stacey &, Joe: Full House, which the couple are known for keeping it real. Their series provides a realistic view of their daily routines, including their hectic careers and homes.

The pair, who tied the knot in 2022, revealed they’ve turned to marriage therapy to keep their relationship on track. A source recently told OK! that Stacey and Joe may have underplayed how big a step having cameras around for every tricky moment would be.
They underestimated how challenging it would be to produce this reality show, the source claimed. Having cameras around and watching it back wasn’t always easy. They won’t deny that the work and commitment to balancing their relationship have been difficult.
The source adds that they are pleased that they made an open letter about couple therapy. They are receiving therapy because they are in love and never want to end their relationship. Yes, there have been ups and downs and a lot of roller coasters, but they both know therapy is the best way to improve their relationship and address their issues.
Umo Eno’s resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been hailed as “historic” and capable of bringing in more investment opportunities for the South-South region, according to Edo State governor Monday Okpebholo.
Okpebholo made the remarks in a statement on Saturday, expressing his sincere thanks to Eno for leaving the APC.
Okpebholo praised Eno’s brave choice to align with the APC’s “progressive ideals” and national vision.
According to him, the action demonstrated a “profound” commitment to the advancement and development of Akwa Ibom State, ensuring its seamless integration into the federal government’s development agenda under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s “renewed hope” mantra.
Governor Umo Eno’s choice to join the APC “demonstrates his foresight and commitment to the welfare of his people,” the governor said.
It “signifies a strategic alignment that will undoubtedly increase opportunities, foster stronger collaborations, and accelerate the delivery of democratic dividends to the good Akwa Ibom State,” observed Okpebholo.
The governor of Edo emphasized the value of synergy and unity between the federal government and the states for best progress.
He expressed confidence that Governor Eno’s departure will significantly improve the South-South region’s political climate and promote regional cohesion and development.
