HOME BODY : 'MY PARTNER IS A PERFECTIONIST - I AM NOT!
There must be plenty of British youngsters who dream of living a life like Nick Grimshaw. Back in 2012, Nick landed one of the coolest jobs around, as host of the Radio 1 breakfast show.

Since then he’s steadily built up a presenting career on TV. Paparazzi pictures show him hanging out with A-list pals like Harry Styles, and the guestlist for his 30th birthday party in 2014 included the likes of Millie Mackintosh, Abbey Clancy, Daisy Lowe and Dermot O’Leary.

His latest TV project, The Great House Transformation, sees him team up with pal Emma Willis. “I always have a nice time with Emma,” Nick smiles.

It’s a perfect fit for Nick, 37, who has always had an interest in art and design and sold one of his paintings as part of a secret charity auction.
