Nick Knowles and Katie Dadzie have proved critics of their age-gap relationship wrong, after tying the knot on Saturday in a six-figure celebration at Braxted Park, Essex.
Nick Knowles’ new wife Katie Dadzie swapped her wedding gown for a daring mini dress for the dancefloor, with her new husband whipping off his blazer to join her for a wild dance. The happy couple got married on Saturday at Braxted Park, Essex in a star-studded six-figure celebration, surrounding by their nearest and dearest.
BBC DIY SOS star Nick, 62, opted for a light pink tuxedo jacket, with a black bow tie and trousers. He added a purple boutonnière to give his colourful look a pastel contrast.
Meanwhile, Katie, 34, wowed guests in a non-traditional wedding dress, going for a stunning white bandeaux gown with a blue floral design. She swept her hair back in a bun and went for full glam makeup, accessorising her look with a statement diamond necklace and full-length veil.
And she pulled out all the stops, even including a costume change for the reception. Mum-of-two Katie swapped her demure gown for a tiny white mini dress and sparkly hat, ditching her heels for white trainers and adding in some heart-shaped shades.
The newly-weds entertained their guests with a live band, plus a carnival dancer who took to the floor in a feather-adorned outfit. A video re-shared to Nick’s story shows them downing shots together and partying into the early hours with their beaming guests.
TV star Nick and lingerie business owner Katie started dating in 2021 after their children made friends and the pair met at a kids’ play centre in 2019. Nick got down on one knee in 2023, with them finally tying the knot after four years together.
Katie’s business sells lingerie and sex toys, but she also owns another company, Boobbix. Her second enterprise sells ‘lactation products for breastfeeding mums’.
Despite their strong relationship, the pair have had to deal with their fair share of trolling from disapproving fans. The couple met back in 2019 but raised eyebrows due to their 27-year age-gap relationship.
After they got together, trolls mocked one of Katie’s posts after she shared a photo while working on a photoshoot for her lingerie company. Nick was seen behind her, adjusting her suspenders.
Vicious followers called Katie ‘desperate’ and ‘cringe’ for the post, forcing Nick to hit back at the haters. He wrote on X: “[She] has degrees in two subjects, runs three businesses, is a mother of two, is wealthier and more successful than me and is intelligent and independent unlike the abusive trolls attacking her.”
Later, in an interview with The Sun, Nick said that he usually ignores trolls but has taken the bait and hit back when people have been ‘judgmental’. He explained: “I chose to be on telly so I kind of expect it for me, but for people I care about they shouldn’t have to deal with it. I’m protective of Katie, because people make assumptions about her without knowing anything about her, so that’s why I spoke.”
Despite some fans judging them because of the age-gap, sources have said the couple are ‘so in love’ and ‘absolutely adore each other’. “Katie is over the moon that Nick popped the question,” they added.
