Nick Knowles says he’s too tired to have a Strictly affair.
The presenter, 61, will be paired up with a sexy pro dancer, but insists his fiancée Katie Dadzie, 34, has nothing to worry about. The show has been blamed for ruining a string of relationships after celebs had flings behind the scenes.
But Nick joked: “That’s not an issue. I barely have the energy to walk out to the car after training.

“Honestly, we did a day’s training the other day and I literally crawled out to the car and then sat with my feet in a bath of cold water for an hour when I got home!”
Nick is having to train around the clock to make sure he masters his first routine. The DIY SOS star has been shocked by how tough it is.

He said: “Doing this show is all-encompassing for me and the family, you do such long hours. “You don’t really have time for anything outside of this and even when you get away from it, you’re trying to eat right. You can’t shut your brain off.”
Nick has been trying to get in shape for the past six weeks in a bid to boost his chances of winning.
He said: “I’ve been doing some training to get fit enough to start dancing.
“That’s the main thing… being fit enough to be able to do it. And I’ve lost a lot of weight – about 12kg. The first thing I’ve got to do is try not to look like the honey monster… all my brain power at the moment is focused.”
