Nick Knowles and his new wife Katie Dadzie hit the dance floor! Pink-clad groom, 62, shows off his moves as his lingerie-boss wife, 34, ditches her floral wedding dress for daring mini
The DIY SOS presenter, 62, cut a sharp figure in a dusky pink jacket after exchanging vows with his lingerie brand boss bride, 34, during a lavish six-figure wedding at Braxted Park, Essex.
And the fun continued into the night, as Nick happily shared a video at the reception.
Taking to his Instagram account in the early hours of Sunday morning, Nick reposted a video, showing him and Katie taking to the floor for their first dance.
Katie wowed in her quirky floral print dress, which she wore for the ceremony, while jokingly shaking her head at her new husband's moves.
Later, the bride changed into a second bold look - ditching her florals for a tiny white mini dress and glittering hat.

She ditched her heels for white trainers and completed the fun evening look with heart-shaped shades.
Nck was delighted with his new wife's incredible ensemble, whipping off his pink suit jacket and flinging it around his head before twirling a laughing Katie around the dance floor.
The couple pulled out all the stops for their guests with a live band providing the music whilst a carnival dancer bedecked in feathers took to the floor at one point.
The couple began dating in 2021 after they met when their children became friends at a play centre and got engaged in 2023.
Katie confirmed the countdown was 'on' until their big day in an Instagram post last Friday, with the couple having been snapped running errands since as they prepared for the nuptials.
The couple are said to have spared no expense on their special day, which was reportedly attended by a whole host of celebrity guests, including Nick's Strictly co-stars.
Last month, Katie kicked off the wedding celebrations with her hen do at luxury boutique hotel Karma Sanctum, where she was joined by close friends Kirsty Shaw-Rayner and Sherene Fuller.
The group arrived on a beer bus and then headed through party district Soho wearing Nick Knowles face masks, much to the amusement of Katie, ahead of partying at Karma Sanctum.
Katie was later entertained by two buff men dressed as a fireman and policeman as the party carried on into the early hours.
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 its not true.
She said: '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.
'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.

Inside Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie's designer wardrobes as their style evolution continues
Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have shown an increasing love for designer labels in recent years, as they have both showcased impressive style transformations. While their wardrobes feature a mix of high street pieces and designers, the sisters show consistent loyalty to a handful of high-end brands. For Beatrice, Emilia Wickstead stands out as a clear favourite. The British designer's tailored silhouettes and feminine tones complement her polished aesthetic, seen at events such as Royal Ascot and Trooping the Colour. Eugenie, meanwhile, has a long-standing connection with Peter Pilotto, the designer of her wedding gown, and regularly turns to his contemporary designs for public appearances. Both sisters also favour Self-Portrait, known for its intricate lacework and flattering midi dresses, often choosing the brand for summer events and royal engagements. Other luxury favourites include Chanel, with its iconic tweed jackets and accessories, and Erdem, beloved for its romantic florals and rich textures. Below, we delve into Beatrice and Eugenie's finest looks to date. Chanel Eugenie made a stylish statement at the 2023 Abu Dhabi Art exhibition, wearing a classic Chanel tweed blazer - a hallmark of the French fashion house. She paired the structured jacket with a sleek black maxi skirt, buckled slingback pumps and gold drop earrings. Eugenie's affinity for Chanel extends beyond tailoring - she also has a growing collection of the brand's iconic handbags. At Tate Modern's 25th Anniversary Fundraising Gala in June, she carried her eye-catching orange Chanel AS1174 Trendy Spirit bag, debuted in 2022. Another favourite is her black Quilted Flap Bag in lambskin, embellished with pearls - a staple she's turned to for various occasions, including the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Beatrice, meanwhile, often steps out in Chanel's signature footwear. She owns several versions of the label's neutral-tone shoes with contrast toe caps, including both ballerina flats and slingbacks. From royal engagements to more casual moments - she once swapped heels for flats after a night out - Beatrice proves that Chanel shoes offer both style and comfort. Self-Portrait Self-Portrait has become something of a wardrobe staple for Beatrice, who has been spotted in at least ten dresses from the cult label - four more than the Princess of Wales, who has six in rotation. Most recently, Beatrice stepped out in the brand's Sequin Knit Tailored Midi Dress for Borne's Wonderland Gala 2025 at the V&A, showcasing her continued love for its designs. One of her most-worn pieces is the Tailored Crepe and Chiffon Midi Dress, which she has chosen for four major occasions, including Queen Elizabeth II's vigil at Westminster Hall. Eugenie has followed suit, incorporating Self-Portrait into her own wardrobe. She embraced the recent heatwave in a white linen peplum dress with intricate laser-cut detailing. She previously wore the Chiffon Scallop Midi Dress in Blue for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations at Trooping the Colour in 2022. Self-Portrait has become something of a wardrobe staple for Beatrice, who has been spotted in at least ten dresses from the cult label Erdem Erdem has become a firm favourite for the sisters, with each royal embracing the brand's romantic aesthetic. Eugenie owns at least three Erdem dresses, one of which carries particular significance. In 2018, she wore the label's Bernette dress, featuring the Windsor Wall floral print, to Ladies' Day at Royal Ascot. The print itself was created as a tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, drawing inspiration from her 1950s and 60s fashion - a nod to her late grandmother. It marked the fifth time Eugenie has worn the piece, cementing its sentimental value. Meanwhile, Beatrice has been seen in six Erdem dresses. She tends to favour mid-length, fit-and-flare floral styles, often with refined details such as lace and delicate prints. A standout in her collection is the Lily Pelham dress - a blue, grey and pink floral silk-crepe design overlaid with black lace. She has worn the piece on multiple occasions, highlighting it as a staple in her wardrobe. Emilia Wickstead Beatrice has long been a devoted fan of British designer Emilia Wickstead, with several signature dresses appearing in the royal's wardrobe. Most recently, she wore the elegant Elta dress in steel blue to celebrate the launch of a baby shower collection with Alice Naylor-Leyland, in support of the Borne charity. The design features a flattering fit-and-flare silhouette and subtle crossover detailing. At Royal Ascot the previous year, Beatrice turned heads in a green floral Emilia Wickstead number, styled with a raffia fascinator and coordinating pumps. Another favourite from her collection is the pale pink Dionne dress, which she has worn for both Trooping the Colour and Easter Sunday celebrations. The same frock has also been seen on Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh. While Eugenie may currently have just one Emilia Wickstead piece in rotation, it's certainly memorable. She wore the Amila dress in bold orange, styled with black accessories, to the Platinum Jubilee Thanksgiving Service in 2022, making a vibrant fashion statement at the historic event. Beulah London Beulah London is a clear favourite of Beatrice, who owns an impressive collection of twelve dresses from the British label, including four versions of the Ahana style. One standout moment came at last year's Buckingham Palace Garden Party, where she brightened up the grey weather in the crimson Christina dress, complete with pearl buttons and a frilled high neckline. More recently, in June, Beatrice opted for a pink gingham co-ord from Beulah's collaboration with VCH and The FairGround founder Ginnie Chadwyck-Healey. The polished tweed ensemble featured a puff-sleeve peplum top and a coordinating midi skirt that appeared both classic and contemporary. Eugenie has only been seen in Beulah once - wearing one of the brand's designs back in 2016 - but given her evolving style and growing interest in British labels, it wouldn't be a surprise to see her in the brand again soon. Peter Pilotto Princess Eugenie wore a custom silk jacquard gown by Peter Pilotto for her 2018 wedding to Jack Brooksbank, and has been a loyal fan of the British designer ever since. Known for their symmetrical prints and standout silhouettes, Peter Pilotto's designs have become a go-to for the Princess. One standout piece in her wardrobe is the multicoloured Gradient Midi Dress, featuring a high ruffled neckline, sleeveless cut and metallic gold leaf pattern. She has worn it on three occasions, most memorably to Nothing but a 'G' Thang: The Art & Archive of G-Dragon, where she styled it with gold strappy heels for a polished finish. More recently, Eugenie opted for a sophisticated satin gown by the label at the Anti-Slavery Collective's first Winter Gala in 2023. The floor-length design, featuring gold button accents and a thigh-high slit, struck the perfect balance of elegance and edge.

Brian Cox: Braveheart is a lie
Braveheart is 'a lie', Brian Cox has said. The Scottish actor, who starred in Succession, said the Mel Gibson film about William Wallace had a 'crap' script and was historically inaccurate. Speaking at the Edinburgh International Book Festival, he said: 'The film is just bollocks. It doesn't make any sense.' Cox, 79, appeared in the 1995 historical epic despite initially turning the role down to appear in a film about Rob Roy, the 17th century outlaw. He said Gibson pleaded with him to take a role in Braveheart. 'I said, 'Well, there is a very good part at the beginning, a guy called Argyle but I'm wrong for him because he should be cadaverous and thin',' Cox said. 'And he said: 'No, you can play it'.' Cox played Argyle Wallace, the uncle of the main character, in the film about the Scottish wars of independence in the 13th and 14th centuries. He added: 'I just didn't want to be in a kilt. Of course they didn't have kilts in those days but they had to have kilts [in the film] because that is what it is about.' Braveheart, which won five Academy Awards, has been criticised for not strictly following historical fact. It contained an invented romance between Wallace and Isabella of France, depicted Scots wearing tartan before it was invented and showed them using tactics in the set piece battle against the English army that they did not use. The script was based on a 15th century poem called The Wallace, written by a minstrel called Blind Harry. 'Mel is wonderful to work with,' Cox said. 'He gets a bad rap but actually he is a really good man. I saw him deal with some lads [on the film] who were alcoholically inclined and he used to deal with them absolutely beautifully.' Sharon L. Krossa, a medieval historian and Braveheart detractor, has previously said: 'The events aren't accurate, the dates aren't accurate, the characters aren't accurate, the names aren't accurate, the clothes aren't accurate – in short, just about nothing is accurate.' The film was blamed in the run up to the 2014 Scottish independence referendum for a rise in anti-British sentiment. Stanley Baxter, the comedian, said it was 'to do with these dreadful films they've made, anti-English films and that wretched Australian [Mel Gibson] – Braveheart – it's not even correct historically'.
