Katie Dadzie is a social media personality, influencer and entrepreneur.
Nick and Katie have a 27-year age gap, and the businesswoman has faced some flack over their age difference.
Trolls called out the generational divide, as well as suggesting Katie was a “gold digger.”
In response, Katie told The Sun on Sunday: “Nick has a Peter Pan complex, he doesn’t act the age he is at all.
“He is like a teenage boy and has so much energy. I also act a bit older, so it works out.
“We’re really happy and support each other with kids and our work lives. He’s a really lovely person.
“We have separate homes, which I think works for our relationship.”
The Sun revealed what Katie thought about the “Strictly curse” ahead of his appearance on the show.
A source told us: “Katie isn’t worried about the curse.
“After Nick signed up for the show they joked about it, they’re very confident in their relationship.
“Obviously Katie is stunning and Nick definitely isn’t looking elsewhere — why would he? This is nothing but a job for him.”
How long have Nick Knowles and Katie Dadzie been together for?
The pair have been together since 2021 and met when Katie’s daughters befriended Nick’s youngest son Eddie at a play centre.
Nick Knowles and mum-of-two Katie made their first public appearance together in September of the same year.
The couple got engaged in August 2023 while the BBC star was filming in the US.

At the time a close pal Exclusively told The Sun: “They are so in love and absolutely adore each other.
“Katie is over the moon that Nick popped the question.”
When asked wether he’s made any wedding plans, Nick told The Sun: “Not yet. Still haven’t decided. Still thinking about it.
“I’ve been away too much with all the travel shows I’ve been doing. Katie’s been very busy with the company.
“And as that gets busier, the time to be able to find, to disappear for a week in the schedule gets more and more difficult.”

Katie is an influencer and social media personality, known for her work in the beauty and lifestyle sectors.
She also runs a company called Boa Boa with her fiancé, which sells sexy lingerie and sex toys.
The couple are co-directors of the company with a 50-50 share — but their firm is losing money.
Although it has assets of £34,000, figures show that Nick and Katie are £15,203 in the red after Boa Boa’s first year of trading.
Katie has promoted her company’s products by modelling its lingerie.
Boa Boa says its underwear “can make us feel sexy, confident, and playful… and we want to help you feel that way!”
