Nick Knowles, 62, and new wife Katie Dadzie, 34, share a glimpse into their lavish wedding with a VERY cheeky nod to his TV success as they pose in a photobooth before hitting dance floor
Nick Knowles and Katie Dadzie have shared a glimpse into their lavish wedding on social media on Monday as they partied into the night after tying the knot over the weekend.
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 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.

In another clip, the couple showed off their dances moves while Katie jokingly shook her head at her new husband's moves as he whipped off his pink suit jacket flinging it around his head.
As guests made their arrival for the nuptials, they were greeted with a cheeky nod to Nick's TV success, as a huge sign boasted the words: 'Welcome to Katie's wedding... ft TV's Nick Knowles.'
Earlier in the evening, Katie wore her quirky floral print wedding dress, which she wore for the ceremony, for the couple's first dance and cutting their huge cake.
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.
The celebrations took place at the very swanky Braxted Park Estate in Essex
'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.

Beth, review: a baffling and muddled sci-fi drama about race and IVF
Beth is Channel 4's first 'digital original drama'. What does this mean? Your guess is as good as mine. But it's being shown as a 45-minute programme on regular television and in 15-minute mini-episodes on YouTube. 'Truly groundbreaking,' says the man from Channel 4. Hmm. The thinking seems to be that young people with chronically short attention spans watch YouTube, and Channel 4 needs young people. In which case, they've made a baffling choice of subject, because does anyone under the age of 30 want to watch a stifling drama about a couple going through IVF? It's billed as a sci-fi thriller, which piques the interest a bit. Think of it as an undercooked episode of Black Mirror. Joe and Molly (Nicholas Pinnock and Abbey Lee) have been trying for a baby. They've had multiple rounds of fertility treatment and multiple miscarriages. Now at the end of the road, they're told by their doctor that there is a chance they could conceive naturally. 'Once you remove the stress and strain, miracles can happen. That's the irony with IVF,' he explains. He also puts his hand on Molly's knee in the consulting room, which we are invited to find a bit suspicious. Is there something going on between those two? When Molly does get pregnant, and the baby arrives – white and bearing no resemblance to Joe – the question hanging in the air is: who's the father? We skip from the labour room to a few years later. You may be wondering where the sci-fi element kicks in, and the answer is about five minutes from the end. The big reveal is bizarre. Until then, though, it is just a little bit odd. Molly's mother becomes unnaturally freaked out by a child's drawing. There is some business with a wall clock. As for the title, I still have no idea who Beth is. Film-maker Uzo Oleh has a background in high-end fashion photography and he has crafted something that looks beautiful, not least because Lee is a model who has appeared on the cover of Vogue. As an entry into television writing and directing, it's a promising start, but too hung up on the visuals. The tone is arty. The casting is a problem, because while the talented Pinnock acts like a regular guy invested with a full range of human emotions, Lee is at an icy remove even in scenes where she's supposed to be full of warmth. At times, as Molly and Joe wear their expensive clothes in a tasteful apartment, a couple supposedly in love but displaying about as much emotional connection as Nick Robinson and Emma Barnett on the Today programme, it reminded me of Eyes Wide Shut. It helps to watch it twice, once you've seen the twist. But when the emphasis is on the convenience of 15-minute instalments, will anybody have the time to do that?

Furious Love Island fans rage 'sort it out' as ITVX 'crashes' and freezes just minutes into launch episode
Love Island fans have been left seething as ITVX 'crashed' just minutes into the opening episode of the new series. Host Maya Jama returned to the TV villa as the show welcomed a new batch of singletons for the 12th series. However, as the stunning ladies trickled into the villa, ITV 's streaming service ITVX appeared to go down for some users. Some fans said the app was also 'freezing' as they tried to watch the bumper 90-minute launch show. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one furious viewer said: 'Anyone else's ITVX glitchy as f**k!??? Ugh every f***ing year, sort it out ITV. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A second blasted: 'Ugh!!! Was tryin to watch live but ITV is playin games with my stream so I will watch the rerun later.' 'ITVX App is shocking it keeps freezing all the time,' said a third unhappy fan.' While a fourth vented: 'Why does ITV2 keep stalling.' Meanwhile, this year's opener kicked off with the show's biggest twist yet. The ladies -Shakira, Meg, Alima, Sophie, Megan and Helena - were first to enter the villa and talk turned to the boys they could potentially couple up with. Usually the viewers are tasked with deciding who the first couples are, but this year the girls chose purely based on the boys' dating profiles. Explaining the huge change, Maya told them: 'This year things are slightly different. You've told me what your type on paper is, but does that match your ideal man in reality? Come and join me by the pool.' As the first coupling up took place, fans took to social media to vent their fury at ITV as they were left missing out on the action It comes as one Love Island star has already been sensationally dumped from the villa, before the launch show has even aired. For one girl, her time on the show is set to be brutally cut short as she's sent packing shortly after her arrival in the first savage twist of the series. It is said that the girl was 'absolutely gutted' by her dismissal which came following the entrance of this year's first bombshell. A source told The Sun: 'This girl will be sorely missed as was already proving to be a big character. They were absolutely gutted to leave.' They continued: 'But the series has twists and turns at every stage and this isn't the usual dumping viewers might expect after a bombshell arrives. 'Executive producer Mike Spencer-Hayter has promised drama for the tenth anniversary and this format point will not disappoint.'

Megan Moore NAME: Megan Moore AGE: 25 FROM: Southampton OCCUPATION: Payroll specialist WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? I'd like to meet someone who is tall, with a nice tan, nice eyes and a nice smile.

If they're close and I really fancy them, I'll give them my number anyway. NAME: Ben Holbrough AGE: 23 FROM: Gloucester OCCUPATION: Private Hire Taxi driver WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

Clean hair cut. Someone that can make me laugh - I'm super outgoing. And someone that's quite active. Maybe one day we could start our own family together. I WANT TO DATE A BRITISH GUY BECAUSE...

Noel Edmonds, 76, opens up on TV return with series about his life in New Zealand – & how it compares to Clarkson's Farm
A LARGER than life showbiz veteran documenting his new life on a farm is a hit TV formula for Jeremy Clarkson. Now there is another famous face who is also getting in on the action, Noel Edmonds. 7 7 7 However the quirky host insists his new ITV1 show is nothing like Clarkson's Farm — because he's not as funny as the former Top Gear star. Noel exclusively told The Sun: 'When we were filming our show, some people who knew about Clarkson's Farm said to me, 'Oh, is it like Clarkson's Farm?' 'And I said, 'No, it couldn't be more different.' 'First of all, I'm not like Jeremy in many ways, though I wish I were. "He's brilliant. 'He can articulate an argument beautifully and deliver a sharp, humorous line like no one else.' Noel, 76, is perhaps doing himself a disservice, as he went on to crack a joke about his years in the showbiz wilderness. His last big gig was on I'm A Celebrity in 2018, when he was voted out after only nine days. Noel laughed: 'People still ask, 'Noel Edmonds? Didn't he die? Is he still around?' 'Yes, I'm still here — and living life to the full.' Noel now lives in New Zealand where he and wife Liz have been based since 2016 after he quit the UK. 'Punishing schedule' For the first time he will be putting his new life in the spotlight in the ITV1 show, Noel's Kiwi Adventure. Unlike Jeremy, the former Deal Or No Deal host is no newcomer to farming. He's been working in agriculture since the Eighties in Devon, when he was one of the UK's biggest stars. Noel said: 'Over the years I've known Jeremy. 'If you watch a video called Noel's Le Mans Dream, you'll see Jeremy was part of my boys' team, alongside Nick Mason, Gary Rhodes, and others. 'I entered a two-car team in the Le Mans 24-hour race. 'I thoroughly enjoyed that weekend. 'I don't think I saw Jeremy eat any solids. 'He was a regular in the hospitality tents, a great character.' He continues: 'Clarkson's Farm came along, and I think it's brilliant. 'There are three things in particular I admire. 'First, the production values — the way it's made, the narrative structure — it's exceptional. 'Not contrived, but very well-constructed. 'Second, he's highlighted how mad our relationship is with public servants. " Jeremy trying to get permission for a restaurant, a shop, a car park . . . dealing with council staff who don't seem to understand they are public servants. 'They are meant to serve the public. 'He's shown how difficult they make things. 'Third, and most importantly, he's shown how hard it is to be a farmer. 'I've been farming since the early Eighties and it's always been tough. "In Devon, the paperwork alone was staggering. 'Constant rules. Constant restrictions. All about control.' Liz and I allowed the cameras into our lives. The filming followed what we did in September, October, November of 2024, right up to Christmas. Noel on his new TV show Noel's series will involve a lot less red tape. But, just like Jeremy, he's also acquired a pub — The Bugger Inn in River Haven, near Nelson on the South Island. Noel explains: 'The key difference between our Kiwi Adventure, and Clarkson's Farm is that ours is more of a lifestyle narrative. 'Liz and I allowed the cameras into our lives. 'The filming followed what we did in September, October, November of 2024, right up to Christmas. "It documented our lifestyle - two people deciding to leave the UK and start over in New Zealand. 'And yes, everyone says it: 'Oh, New Zealand, that's a long way away.' And we just say, 'Exactly, that's why we're here.' 'In 2016 we decided to explore our options to move away from the UK and our first holiday was to New Zealand. 'We got a real feel for New Zealand and began to understand the Kiwi way of life. 7 7 'At the same time, Deal Or No Deal was coming to an end — 3,000 shows over ten years. 'It was a punishing schedule. 'This show tells the story of the challenges we've faced, the joys we've discovered, and all the fun we've had. 'I really hope the fun element of our Kiwi Adventure comes through, and maybe it will make people curious about New Zealand.' The series also shows them enjoy some of the country's hot spots, including a helicopter flight above the South Island's glacier and some fun on a boat in the balmy north. But it is not all fun and games and the series will show the brutal side of farming. He said: 'We have a fair amount of land here and we practise what I call ethical farming. 'Some call it regenerative farming, that's the buzzword. 'For me, ethical farming means treating livestock with respect. 'We know why we're farming them and what the final outcome is. 'I don't like that part. "I really don't. 'I'm a hypocrite. 'I'm a coward. 'I don't want to be involved in that final journey. 'But we try to give them the finest feed, structured water, and as much dignity as possible.' Making his name as a DJ on Radio 1 in the early Seventies, he went on to host kids show Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, Top Of The Pops, cult quiz show Telly Addicts and Noel's House Party which inspired Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway, and turned the lesser celebrated Mr Blobby into a TV juggernaut. 'Hippies in yurts' Later he presented Channel 4 gameshow Deal Or No Deal from 2005 to 2016 — which was recommissioned in 2023 with Stephen Mulhern taking over as host. It was thanks to Deal Or No Deal that Noel met Liz, his wife of 17 years, as she worked as a make-up artist on the show. Aside from his I'm A Celebrity appearance, for which he bagged a £600,000 fee, British audiences have barely seen father-of-four Noel over the past decade. It's so beautiful here that I'll walk my land and just stop for an hour, admiring the view and not get any work done. The landscape is sensational. Noel on his New Zealand home Noel and Liz, his third wife, were initially based in Auckland but Noel decided the city was too busy so they moved to the remote Tasman region instead. He laughed: 'It was so busy it began to feel like the UK or Europe. 'I even called it Euro Zealand. 'It's so beautiful here that I'll walk my land and just stop for an hour, admiring the view and not get any work done. 'The landscape is sensational.' However, it's not all peace and tranquillity, and that's mainly down to the extreme weather they experience. He added: 'The weather here has attitude. 'I lived in Devon for 20 years and there you'd get grey days with drizzle drifting in from the Atlantic. But here? 'When it blows, it really blows — trees come down. 'When it rains, it's tropical stair-rodding rain. 'You get landslips. And the sun? 'It'll burn you within ten minutes in peak season. 'Oh, and earthquakes. 'We've had three. 'During the first one, we were sitting outside with a glass of wine, and I noticed the surface of the wine rippling. 'That was a mild one. 'The biggest one really shook the house — the cutlery drawer rattled, and Liz and I each grabbed a dog and ran outside. "No structural damage, thankfully. 'But yes, earthquakes - and a dormant volcano just up the way. 'At least, we hope it's dormant.' Another big factor as to why Noel has settled so well in New Zealand is the people. He said: 'They love a good time, a good laugh and they don't take themselves, or their politicians, too seriously. 'I love that. 'Especially here, in this area, which became a kind of haven for the hippies in the Sixties and Seventies. 'There are still people living in yurts up the valley, and good on them. 'What we found was overwhelming kindness. 'We were living in Matakana during the flu outbreak and, suddenly, our mailbox was full of avocados, chocolates, home-cooked things - little gifts from locals who wanted to look after 'the two Brits up the way'. 'It was heartwarming. 'If a Kiwi invites you to their home, you always say: 'Thanks, what can I bring?' In the UK, you might show up with a bottle or a bunch of flowers from the petrol station. 'Here, it's expected that you contribute.' But if anyone knows how to throw a good house party, it's Noel. Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure airs later this month on ITV1 and ITVX. 7 7
