Nick Knowles engaged to Katie Dadzie

Nick Knowles is engaged.

The 60-year-old 'DIY SOS' star is set to wed for the third time after proposing to his girlfriend Katie Dadzie, 33, in New Orleans last month.

Katie posted some pictures from the proposal on Instagram and wrote: "So last minute something special happened in New Orleans."

Nick also posted the pictures and shared that he popped the question with a Haribo ring.

He said: "There was a Haribo ring incident in New Orleans. Very happy."

Nick split from his wife Jessica Rose Moor in 2016 and he was also previously married to Gillian Knowles from 1996 to 2000.

Nick has four children from three different relationships, he shares his daughter Tuesday and son Charlie with his ex-wife Gillian, and has son, TJ, with dancer Paula Beckett.

He also has son Eddie with his ex-wife Jessica, and Nick and Katie actually met through Eddie.

Katie has children Savannah, eight, and Alex, five, and she met Nick after their kids became pals.

However, it was not love at first sight.

Speaking about their first meeting, Katie told The Sun: "I actually didn’t like him very much.

“We just knew each other as our kids were friends.

“I’m very shy and quiet, while Nick is quite extroverted and a complete chatterbox. He didn’t give me a lot of opportunity to talk. I didn’t know a lot about him.

“But when we were both single we went for coffee and he let me talk, eventually, and we had a lot in common. We both love cooking and have an interest in history.

“During lockdown we spent a lot of time chatting over the phone, which meant we could really get to know each other.

“The more we went out the more I realised what a nice guy he is as he’s constantly bombarded by fans and always has time for a picture.”
