Steve left “Escape to the Chateau” to pursue other projects and spend more time with his family.
Steve, also known as “Steve the Builder” on the show “Escape to the Chateau,” became a familiar face to viewers as he helped Dick Strawbridge and his wife Angel Adoree renovate their 19th-century chateau in France. His skills and personality made him a favorite among fans. However, after several seasons, Steve decided to step back from the show.
The decision for Steve to leave the show was not due to any on-screen drama or fallout but was a personal choice. He wanted to focus on his own business endeavors and prioritize his family life. Steve runs his own building and renovation company, and the demands of his business, coupled with the intense filming schedule of “Escape to the Chateau,” led him to reassess his commitments.
While Steve’s departure was felt by both the Strawbridge family and the audience, the show continued to follow the family’s journey as they tackled the ongoing challenges of renovating and maintaining their expansive property. Steve’s contribution to the early stages of the chateau’s transformation was significant, and his work has left a lasting impact on the property. Fans of the show have expressed their appreciation for Steve’s work and his warm, approachable demeanor on social media and through various fan forums.
