Escape To The Chateau's Angel Strawbridge has broken her silence after an explicit rant from herself was leaked.
Just a matter of days ago, she and husband Dick were sacked by Channel 4 'following a review into their conduct'.
That came before a leaked recording obtained by Deadline heard Angel describing a member of the Escape To The Chateau as a 'f**ked up little c**t'.
Angel questioned two producers about a delay to her schedule, with her anger evidently growing throughout the clip.

She even accused one of the individuals of posting a photo to Instagram of a man she bellied had a likeness to her husband.
"Who is that inspired by when you’re f**king working at the chateau? Just tell me that and then you can f**king leave and this is me f**king angry because I think you’re a f**kind up little c**t," she said in the clip originally from 2021.
At the time of Deadline's report, the couple did not respond for a comment and have previously denied they bullied or were aggressive to any members of crew.
Now, the TV couple have released a statement for the first time since leaving Channel 4.
Taking to Instagram, Angel and Dick paid tribute to their fans before adding that their future 'truly could not look more exciting' despite their controversial exit from Channel 4.
They wrote: "Thank you for inviting us into your living rooms. You have watched our children grow up and shared our adventures.
"It was a Strawbridge Family decision early last year to conclude Escape to the Chateau, but we have loved every moment and, despite the many challenges, we refused to give up on our dream, and in doing so have filled the chateau with love and laughter, and, most importantly, have created the most wonderful home for our family.
"We know there are lots of stories in the press right now. It’s not worth us even trying to comment or give context, because anything can be made into a good headline. We understand. There are two sides to every story and from the incredible support we have received, most of you know that."
The couple went on to say they are 'proud' of who they are, before adding: "Whilst we have indeed parted ways with Channel 4, we are hugely grateful to them and their teams for their support and creativity over the years."
They concluded the statement with: "The future truly could not look more exciting and we thank you for your continued love and support. "
