Nick Knowles looks unrecognisable as he steps out with mystery woman

Nick Knowles looked unrecognisable when he was seen out with a mystery woman this week.

The DIY SOS presenter, 57, sported a scruffy beard and long unkempt hair when he was pictured picking up some food on Tuesday afternoon.

He was joined by an unnamed female companion, with the duo looking deep in conversation during their outing.

Nick was dressed casually in a blue long-sleeved top and a pair of slim fit grey jeans, which he teamed with some black trainers.

He kept his hair out of his eyes with an Alice band and stayed safe with a colourful face mask.

Nick’s pal was dressed in a Rolling Stones band t-shirt and black trousers.

Her hair was worn up in a messy bun and she donned a pair of gold hoop earrings.

The TV host was seen heading into a cafe and leaving with a bag of food.

The pair were then pictured getting into Nick’s car and driving off together.

It’s not clear who the mystery woman is and what her relationship to Nick is.

Mirror Online has contacted Nick’s reps for comment.

It’s thought Nick has been single since he split from his 26-year-old girlfriend Emily Hallinan in January.

Back in July he said he was very happy to be on this own.

He told The Sun: “There are times in your life when you are with someone, and there are times when you’re not. And being single can actually be a very positive thing.

“Having a three-month, enforced sit-down has actually been one of the best things that’s happened to me in my life.

“I feel in a better place now than I have done for probably 20 years, just spending some time getting to know yourself before re-entering the fray.”

Nick was married to his first wife Gillian in the 1990s.

They share daughter Tuesday and son Charlie.

He married his second wife Jessica Moor in 2012 before they split in 2016 and they share a six-year-old son called Eddie.

Nick also shares son TJ with his former partner, dancer Paula Beckett.
