Jonathan Knight is formally off the marketplace! ET's Lauren Zima spoke with the New Kids on the Block band member and Farmhouse Fixer superstar on the set of the HGTV series concerning the show's second season and getting married to his longtime love, Harley Rodriguez, in secret.

"It is so exciting," Knight gushed of the sequence. "I mean, I've been trying to get a show on TV for so many years, and actually, HGTV told me we're not gonna do the celebrity thing, and I was like, 'Oh.' And then a few years later, things change, and they're like, 'Yes, this is perfect,' so it's been great."

"It's such a passion of mine, fixing up houses," he persisted. "I would post on Instagram pictures of projects I did, and fans would always ask me, 'What is your other job besides the New Kids?' and I just think it's so great to be able to showcase what I do, and people can watch."

While he has a zeal for fixing up homes, what Knight loves maximum in regards to the HGTV collection is with the ability to breathe new existence into previous homes -- with one of the vital farmhomes he fixes relationship back to the 1700s.

"I started my career doing new houses and condos, and I just got sick of, like, vinyl-sided houses in subdivisions," Knight explained. "And to me, they don’t have as much character as an old house, and history, so, I kinda pulled back from that and teamed up with a friend a mine, and we just started buying all these old houses and just bringing them back to life."

Though Farmhouse Fixer helps to keep Knight busy, he's nonetheless touring with the New Kids, letting the OG boy band heartthrob experience the most productive of both worlds.

"I'm about to turn 54, and I would have never thought in my 20s that at 54, I'd still be touring with the New Kids, and I would have a hit TV show on HGTV," he mentioned.

Knight's profession accomplishments are not the one purpose for celebration. He also printed to ET that he in the end tied the knot together with his fiancé.

"We did," Knight admitted when requested in regards to the ring on his finger. "But everybody just assumed we're married, so, I never say yes or no 'cause I don't wanna lie."

While the pair wed in secret, they have got but to have fun their nuptials, because of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.

"It's coming," he added.
