The Escape to the Chateau couple have honed in on their fame since the show ended

Dick Strawbridge and Angel Adoree built a following after the success of their Escape to the Chateau series, which saw them up sticks and leave for a chateau in France, which they revamped into a thriving business.

While they enjoyed nine series of the Channel 4 programme, their documented journey came to an end in 2022, but the family are still very much in the public eye.


In fact, it's been revealed the couple have managed to double their earnings since the series wrapped up.

The Sun reports the husband and wife duo, 64 and 46, have more than £4 million in the bank. The publication reported the latest accounts filed at Companies House disclosed the eye watering amount.

Cashing in on their fame from the show, the couple have gone on to utilise their website and social media channels as well as publishing books and more.

They are also set to launch their UK-wide tour later this year, travelling across several areas along with their two children, Arthur and Dorothy.

It comes shortly after their US tour earlier this year. Speaking recently about their UK visit, the pair admitted they had some concerns regarding the children.

Speaking to Virgin Radio, Adoree announced: "We just found out that both the children can come with us for the whole tour, literally seconds ago!"

However, the news sparked concern among the parents as Strawbridge admitted: "Arthur is now starting college in September, big school, and we were a little bit concerned because he hasn't even started yet."

Elaborating on their children's unique lifestyle, he added: "We've never had any problems with Dorothy and Arthur while they've been at primary school because the headmistress there always says, 'It's education, take them away, they will learn so much from travelling around the place!'"

Strawbridge admitted however: "We were worried about senior school but he said yes, go for it!"

Adoree, 46, went on: "We've got lined up next summer a festival, the Jack of All Trades Festival," expressing their excitement for the new experience.

She continued: "We're in this new era now, where the children are growing up, we still have our wedding and events business, we're writing books, we have our podcast, we're doing tours.

"There's lots happening and all of that is really exciting but having those little nuggets of things that are going to take us outside our comfort zone as well is great."

The update came after Strawbridge defended his two young children missing school to experience the D-Day celebrations in France earlier this month.

Speaking on a recent episode of their podcast, Dick & Angel's Chat...Eau, the couple opened up on how much Arthur and Dorothy enjoyed the experience and admitted they had met other families with school-age children who similarly attended to show their respect.

However, some faced repercussions for this, with one dad who took his 14-year-old daughter out of school to attend the D-Day commemorations ending up being fined in the UK.
