Escape to the Chateau's Dick and Angel say they are 'anxious' over son Arthur

Escape to the Chateau stars Dick Strawbridge and Angel Adoree are "anxious" as son Arthur reaches a major milestone. The Channel 4 stars, who left the show back in the winter of 2022 amid a row over on-set behaviour, are currently on a UK-wide tour.

At the live shows, the pair - who share son Arthur and daughter Dorothy - explained the pair will be joining them for the duration of the tour. Angel said: "If you're going to do a tour, you have to do it properly." Husband Dick said: "The best bit is it's just like a family outing."

He told DevonLive: "Arthur starts senior school and his Headmaster said, 'Yep, great, Arthur can come with us for the whole tour'. The primary schools have always been very supportive, and the headmistress there." Angel said: "Yeah, they love it.

"They encourage it to a degree because there's so much knowledge that the children pick up - history, geography, just socially, etc. But we were a bit anxious, especially me." Dick said: "The idea of Arthur not being with us for all of the tour is pretty rough."

Dick commented "We are British living in France, we are not French and it gives us a very different mindset. And I've got a lot more experience of travelling around all of the UK and all the places we go to, I've been there at some stage."

He went on: "And the fact that Arthur and Dorothy, and, dare I say, Angela, because Angela is sort of a London-centric girl, we get to see the UK, and I get to show them bits they haven't seen before." He commented ahead of the run of dates - which at 33 is their largest tour yet: "So for us, that is really quite special."

Forever Home is the charismatic couple’s biggest tour yet, with 33 dates starting on 6 October in Angel’s hometown of Southend-on-Sea and ending on 17 November, in Brighton.
