Dick and Angel Strawbridge Express Deep Regret Over Buying French Chateau Amid Channel 4 Bullying Allegations
Escape to the Chateau stars Dick and Angel Strawbridge have voiced their deep regret over purchasing their French chateau, admitting they had “200 plus pages of reasons not to buy” the property.
Despite parting ways with Channel 4 last year after a “review” prompted by allegations of bullying, the couple returned to screens last night with a new series. The controversy arose after claims surfaced that Dick and Angel had ‘bullied’ producers during filming. The couple, however, have maintained that there are “two sides to every story.”
A leaked audio clip reportedly featured Angel in a ‘foul-mouthed rant’ directed at a producer. Nonetheless, the Strawbridges have made a comeback with their new show, Dick and Angel’s Secret France, which explores the country beyond their home.
The couple became famous for inviting viewers into their lives as they undertook the monumental task of renovating a dilapidated 45-room French chateau. In the opening credits of the new series, Dick is seen sifting through a stack of paperwork while touring the rundown property, stating, “200 plus pages of reasons not to buy the house.”
The new series aims to showcase a different side of France, away from their home renovation projects, highlighting the challenges and adventures they face along the way.
For ongoing updates and more insights into the Strawbridges’ journey, stay tuned to the latest episodes of Dick and Angel’s Secret France on Channel 4.
