Nick Knowles and his younger fiancée looked loved up in London.

The 61-year-old DIY SOS presenter and his partner Katie Dadzie, 34, looked smitten on Tuesday (September 10) as they attended the opening of The Rocky Horror Show at the Dominion Theatre on London’s West End. The pair got engaged in 2022.

Nick, who is just days away from his debut on Strictly Come Dancing, went for a zipped up polo shirt and beige chinos at the event. Katie looked gorgeous in a tiny black leather dress that showed off her killer figure.

It comes after Nick ruled out getting struck by the so-called “Strictly curse” and having an affair during his time on the BBC show. Several stars have had flings behind the scenes.

However, Nick insisted he was too tired to do such a thing. He 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!”

Discussing how intense Strictly rehearsals are, 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.”

He also revealed he’s lost around 12kg since he started training for the ballroom. “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.”
