Escape To The Chateau's Angel Strawbridge has opened up on the feud between herself, show producers and Channel 4 after they parted ways last year.
In May last year, she and husband Dick were sacked by Channel 4 'following a review into their conduct'.
A review was launched following a foul mouthed rant by Angel as she appears to get frustrated with one of the producers filming the TV programme at their home in France.

The rant, which was leaked and obtained by Deadline, was from 2021 and Angel could be heard swearing as she said: "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**ked up little c**t."
Now Angel has spoken out as she revealed she 'won't apologise' for the rant but she would 'like to erase' it.
Speaking on Elizabeth Day's podcast How To Fail, Angel explained: "I was the one in the wrong for losing my temper, but do you know what, I will not apologise - he was so disrespectful in our house, he was so upsetting to me, my family, and I stand by what I did.

"If I was to apologise and say 'I'm sorry for using bad language and chucking you out' I would just be disingenuous to me."
She continued: "Would I like to erase that? Yeah, I'd love to. But I would also like to erase what he was doing because my rage just didn't pop out of nowhere.
"It grew over time and it was provoked and therefore I'm not ashamed of what happened in the end, I just wish it hadn't happened."

Referring to the fall out between herself and producers for the show, she added: "The actual incident, it actually happened a long time ago - so it happened about six years ago.
"We had so many amazing people filming Escape to the Chateau, but in this particular quite small time frame, we had someone that wasn't particularly very nice.
"His behaviour was completely unacceptable, but it didn't just happen in one little moment, it happened over lots of different occasions."

She then explained how various incidents had built up before she launched her rant as she said: "There was this one incident, and I actually truly believe that because he knew he was caught, I think in my heart that is why he set up this filming.
"Because the way that he was acting was how he'd never acted with me before. You don't accidentally film someone when you're not filming. Completely happened secretively and on purpose.
"He broke all of the kids' fishing rods and the next day I was upstairs and he came up in a really very out of character way for him and was really in my face, in a really angry like he'd lost it kind of way.
"And then I just say like 'get out of my f**king house'. I can't even remember what I said. I think I said a really bad word beginning with c, I think that's how pissed off I must have been."

In May last year Channel 4 revealed they had cut ties with the couple following an independent investigation into the couple. Production company Two Rivers Media, who started working on the show after the 2021 incident, also confirmed it will no longer be working with Dick and Angel.
In May last year, Angel and Dick released a statement to fans as they claimed it was their decision to leave the programme. They said: "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."
For their part, a Channel 4 spokesperson told Mail Online: "Following a review, we have taken the decision not to work with Dick and Angel on any new productions in the future."
