Sharing a picture collage showcasing some of their wallpaper fabrics and bedding designs, Angel penned in the caption: "A very good morning to you!

"We are pretending it's summer here at The Chateau and ignoring the wind and rain! With the children being in full holiday mode, it's actually given us a great excuse to spend some time in the house. A clear favourite has been Arthur & Dorothy's workspace/games room that we created in the attic at the end of last year. It's right next to my Trèsorerie, so we have all been busy making, and I feel completely inspired."

She went on to reveal that the couple have launched their "biggest Wonderful Wednesday ever", which includes 35 per cent off their entire homeware range. 

Taking to the comments section, fans expressed their delight over the post. One person wrote: "Fantastic Angela!!!" while another added: "Ooooohh! Off to the website I go!!"

The new update comes after the couple returned home after some time away "building sandcastles and making memories" with their two children.

The family recently enjoyed some time away from the chateau

Dick and Angel made headlines in recent months after it was reported in May that the pair had been dropped by Channel 4

The broadcaster, which aired their popular reality programme, Escape to the Chateau, for six years until the end of 2021, cut ties with the couple, according to a report from Deadline

The outlet stated that the decision was made following an independent investigation into Dick and Angel's conduct on the programme.

The couple moved into their home, Chateau De La Motte Husson, in 2015

Taking to Instagram, the reality stars thanked fans for their ongoing support, writing: "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."

They went on to say that they were "proud" of who they are and "feel we must do what we believe to be correct". "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 added.
