Nick Knowles explained why he posted an angry rant at the trolls who bashed his 31-year-old girlfriend.
The 59-year-old DIY SOS star was recently pictured with his young sweetheart Katie Dadzie in Mayfair, London.
The couple strolled through the area and kissed after enjoying a romantic dinner.
However, it seems some were unhappy with his romance with Katie and voiced it as Nick ended up going on social media to slam those criticising her.
"I’m raging The woman I was out to dinner with when we were papped is 32, has degrees in two subjects, runs 3 businesses, is a mother of 2, is wealthier & more successful than me & is intelligent & independent unlike the abusive trolls attacking her," he said at the time.
"What happened to #bekind?"
Nick even defended her during his chat with Daily Star and said she owns many businesses.
And now, he was asked what caused the outburst, to which he explained how it was unfair that Katie was targeted.
"I choose to be on TV. As a result, I expect the whole nine yards," he explained.
“I am up there as an object. I’ve chosen to be on TV but my children, or my family, or people I date, for them I feel it’s unfair to have a go at them".
He added to The Sun : "What upset was the judgment of her without knowing anything about her. Or what her motivations might be. I found that upsetting and unfair and felt I needed to say something about it."
The Who Dares Wins star added that he doesn't mind when people complain about him, but it feels 'unfair' when trolls go after people in his life.

Some trolls nastily claimed that Katie is only with Nick for his money when she in fact earns more.
Speaking to Daily Star previously, he said: "Some of the nasty things that are said, and the implication that because she is younger that she is only interested in me for the money or whatever.
"She has two kids, she owns property, has three businesses on the go, is wealthier than me. It is upsetting that they talk about people I am with."
Katie, who is almost half of Nick's age, is a mum-of-two and owns two businesses. One of her companies is called Boa Boa, which sells lingerie and racy sex toys.
While the other is called Boobbix and sells lactation products for breastfeeding mums.
