Nick: I'm a sex god
Telly host boasts of girl offers
BOASTFUL Nick Knowles claims he is bombarded by randy fans.
The DIY SOS host says he gets knickers, naked snaps and endless love letters from women in his fan mail.
He also reckons he has a big gay following and has had “five or six quite worrying stalkers”.
And the Jungle star once got a very tempting proposition.
He said: “There are four beautiful female students in Cardiff who are inviting me to spend the night with them in their flat, all at the same time, and after seeing the photo I was half-tempted.”
Nick, 56, raised eyebrows when
LOVE LETTERS: ‘Pin-up’ Nick he bizarrely stripped to his undies to pump water next to 28-year-old Emily Atack.
The telly lothario has had a string of younger girlfriends.
And the Who Dares Wins host is not shy about admitting his popularity as an unlikely pin-up.
He revealed: “About 70% of my fan mail is from women. I don’t think there’s a decent-looking male presenter in the country who doesn’t get that. You get all kinds – knickers, naked photographs, invitations.”
He added: “I think I have a reasonable gay following. The fact that I used to have big hair probably has something to do with that.
“I get letters from women telling me how much in love with me they are, but they don’t know me.”
But he also revealed there is a darker side to being so popular.
Nick said: “I’ve had five or six quite worrying stalkers, which you have to let the police know about.
“Fortunately, I’ve never been in a situation where I’ve felt in danger. But you get followed around.
“One guy turned up while I was doing a live programme and was stood behind the camera.
“I believe he was being helped psychologically and went back to some psychological help afterwards, and hopefully he’s doing a lot better.”
And the dad of four has a firm grasp on why he is so popular.
He said: “I’m 6ft 2in and 16.5 stone, I’m a big lump of a guy, I’m reasonably well-built and I tend to be on television looking like I can lift and carry things and do stuff about the home.”
