Dick Strawbridge and Angel Adoree reflected on some of the hobbies the family has been enjoying recently in their latest podcast episode.

The Escape to the Chateau stars like to keep fans up to date on their life since their Channel 4 series ended, and their following are always keen to find out what they have been up to.


The couple, along with their two children Arthur and Dorothy, starred in the hit series from 2016 to 2022, with the family having left the UK to renovate a French chateau with the aim of transforming it into a home and business.

In the latest episode of their podcast, Dick & Angel’s Chat…Eau, the couple discussed some of the things they’ve been up to since the autumn months started.

Strawbridge, 65, mentioned how he had taken the children fishing, asking Adoree, 46: “Who was the best fisherperson in our house?”

“Well, aside from you, Dorothy,” she replied, making clear the surprise this had come as to the clan.

“Yeah. As a definition of who’s the best fisherperson, who catches the biggest fish?” Strawbridge probed, to which Adoree once again answered “Dorothy”.

“And it’s ridiculous!” Strawbridge commented. “Dorothy started catching the biggest fish the first time she got given a princess fishing rod from Disney.

“It was about three foot tall, it was bright pink with princesses on it and she got herself a seven-pound corp, it was ridiculous wasn’t it?”

“It was,” Adoree responded, adding: “I mean Dorothy has got this absolutely wonderful patience – Arthur doesn’t have the same…”

“He’d probably like fly-fishing actually,” Strawbridge shared before Adoree went on: “But recently you did fishing with the kids by the seaside.

“I was there but I think I had gone for one of my exercise walks – and Arthur was the one that caught the fish then, wasn’t he?”

“Yeah he got his first bass,” a proud-sounding Strawbridge confirmed before adding: “Dorothy seems to be the one getting the big carp to be fair.”

Dorothy, 10, sparked a frenzy with fans of the family during the summer as her dad shared some sweet snaps of them both enjoying a Taylor Swift concert.

The youngster debuted dyed purple hair similar to her mother Adoree’s as she appeared in a selection of snaps enjoying the special evening.

The first snap showed the two smiling for a sweet selfie outside Wembley Stadium on Thursday as Swift returned to London for the next leg of her Eras tour.

Another photo showed the father and daughter in a screenshot taken whilst on a video call to Adoree, with the three smiling.

Strawbridge even went as far as painting his nails with his daughter, with one picture showing him donning sparkly pink nails. They captioned the post: “Sneak peek…happening now!! #swifties #swiftie #swiftiefamily #swiftiedad #taylorswift.”
