Escape to the Chateau’s Angel Adoree fights back tears as hosting wedding at home takes personal turn

ESCAPE to the Chateau star Angel Adoree was left in floods of tears on Sunday night as she and husband Dick Strawbridge hosted their first wedding in two years.

Escape to the Chateau on Channel 4 returned last week with a new episode after the couple have been away for two years.

The pair’s wedding business was put on hold because of people pushing back their wedding dates due to the coronavirus pandemic.

But as the pandemic restrictions lifted the pair were soon back to doing what they love, preparing their French home for wedding celebrations.

As they got ready for Natasha and Victoria’s special day, Angel couldn’t help but get emotional about their first wedding after two years.

As she sat down, Dick asked if she was excited to be back in business and Angel smiled back.

Angel began to look at the number of wedding guests attending and the jobs that needed to be done.

While going through the plans she started fighting back the tears as she reminisced on her and Dick’s wedding eight years ago.

Angel said: “I am happy, I feel like I am getting on top of things as well. It has been a bit foggy! I have been a bit out of practice but I have everything now.

“58 people for the first wedding. They are arriving Friday late afternoon. Saturday there are seven bridesmaids and then everybody else at 11:30.

“They are getting ready in the honeymoon suite and botanical suite and they are not going to see each other until they meet on the stairs!

She then giggled saying: “Oh God, I feel quite tearful thinking about it! I just think it does feel like it is the first wedding, it feels like our wedding.”

Elsewhere in the episode, the pair took a break from the wedding planning and reflected on their work.

Escape to the Chateau airs Sunday, from 8pm on Channel 4.
