Many more fans flooded the comments section to congratulate the Strawbridges on the tour update. One person wrote: "You are all so amazing and love that you allow us all to be part of your journey. All the best to you always!"

A second added: "We can't wait to see you, safe travels on your new and exciting adventure." A third said: "You guys are the brightest sparks and each time I see an episode hit the TV screen, happiness washes over."

The couple announced earlier this week that they'd be heading to Australia and New Zealand next year. "In February 2023 all four of us will be leaving The Chateau on a 'jet plane' with grandma and papi and coming to see you!" they said on Instagram.

"Australia and New Zealand were the first overseas countries to adopt 'Escape to the Chateau' and follow our adventures, which we really appreciate!!

"We cannot wait to come and say hello in person, thank you for the love, have a giggle, and maybe even a drink! It's an honour to have the opportunity to embark on this adventure, and we cannot wait….we are all crazily excited, it’s in our chats every day, and Dorothy has already started planning outfits- for everyone!"
