Angel Adoree accuses Dick Strawbridge of being 'in denial' over eldest children as she slams parenting habit
Escape to the Chateau Dick and Angel Strawbridge on finale
ITV
Angel Adoree and Dick Strawbridge butted heads during an extra episode of their podcast – Dick & Angel... Chat-eau – with the former slamming her husband's parenting skills.
Whilst travelling across the country, Adoree and Strawbridge visited Scotland and reunited with the former Channel 4 star’s daughter Charlotte, 38.
Alongside his two children – Arthur, 11, and Dorothy, 10 – with Adoree, Strawbridge has two children, Charlotte and her older brother James, 40, from his first marriage to Brigit Strawbridge Howard.
Whilst discussing how nice it was to be reunited with Charlotte, Adoree noted how she witnessed her competitive side – something they all inherited from Strawbridge.
During the extra 30-minute episode, Strawbridge explained a certain part of the show and said: "There is a quiz that takes part in the first half of the show.
"And Arthur and Dorothy are such lovely, loving children, they helped Charlotte, their big sister to get some of the answers and she won."

"And she is very competitive Charlotte so she wanted to win," Adoree interjected before Strawbridge continued: "So she was in the top four places in the competition.
"But then only when she came to see us in the interval did she realise that the people who won the quiz, some of them come up on stage to compete, so she came up and was our jack of all trade Edinburgh competitor."
Reflecting on Strawbridge’s parenting habit, Adoree jibed: "It was a lot of fun and I feel like, Charlotte being your daughter...
"I know you say that the kids get all of this from me, but it is because you are in denial, their competitiveness, I don’t care what you say, comes from you."

"I have no problems with that," Strawbridge laughed before his wife continued: "We didn’t have, me, my mum, my dad and my brother, we didn’t have that competitiveness.
"And I was never particularly any good at anything so I never won at anything, I didn’t have it. You have made me competitive because you are so competitive."
The 65-year-old teased: "Another success story for Dick Strawbridge."
Touching on Charlotte’s childhood and what Strawbridge missed out on teaching her, Adoree noted: "So Charlotte is very competitive.
"And she really was really irritated that she couldn’t do the electrics and she grabbed the microphone off the kids and confessed the reason she didn’t was because her daddy didn’t teach her to do electrics!"
Laughing, Strawbridge agreed and admitted: "I taught her how to change the tyre on her car and the oil, I taught her all those sorts of things but not the electrics, I am a bad daddy."

During their discussion, Strawbridge also revealed that he was worried about Dorothy and Charlotte spending so much time together due to their "Common traits".
Adoree was mindful not to offend her stepdaughter, but added: "I don't know whether I should say anything or stay silent."
"I've got to tell you, they both like to be in charge," Strawbridge explained, to which Adoree agreed: "Yep."
