Dick and Angel Strawbridge admit it's 'been humbling few days' after leaked rant
Escape to the Chateau 's Dick and Angel Strawbridge partied with fans as they opened up about "a humbling couple of days" following their axing from Channel 4.
The couple fronted the popular show since 2015 as they renovated a dilapidated 45-bedroom French chateau into their family home and business.
They worked with the broadcaster for nine seasons and a variety of spin-off shows before Channel 4 told the Mirror they had decided to part ways with Dick and Angel "following a review" after years of working on the hugely successful show together.
The decision came amid claims they 'bullied' producers whilst filming, but Dick and Angel insisted there are 'two sides to every story'.
