Nick Knowles cut a dapper figure as he attended day one of the star-studded Royal Ascot in Berkshire with his chic fiancée Katie Dadzie on Tuesday. 

The annual celebration kicked off in style and the DIY SOS star, 61, made sure to pull out all the stops, opting for a crushed velvet top hat and three-piece suit. 

He teamed a black blazer with a pinstriped navy waistcoat and dark grey trousers, accessorising with a pale blue tie.  

Meanwhile Katie looked sensational in an elegant vintage-style polka dot dress with puff sleeves and a pleated skirt. 

She complete her ensemble with a wide brimmed straw hat and a pair of black wedge sandals.

The couple, who have been together since September 2021, were joined at the racecourse by Charlotte Hawkins, Vicky Pattison and Ola Jordan. 

Royal Ascot, the jewel in the crown of the UK racing calendar, starts today with the Queen Anne Stakes and will run until Saturday.

The King and Queen are likely to join the punters at the famous racing meet and cement their position as champions of racing, just like Queen Elizabeth II. They’ll be hoping to add to their tally of Royal Ascot winners.

Charles and Camilla took on the late Queen’s thoroughbreds and have entered a string of horses over the next five days.

The late Queen was a passionate owner and breeder of thoroughbreds, and had more than 20 Royal Ascot winners during her 70-year reign.

Traditionally, the King and Queen arrive at Royal Ascot in a carriage procession with their guests, a convention which will reach its 200th anniversary next year, as it was first held in 1825 during the reign of King George IV.
