The Chase's Jenny Ryan supported after 'last day' announcement

The Chase's Jenny Ryan has received support from fans after making a "last day" announcement on Instagram.

The chaser, who is also known as The Vixen, joined the popular ITV show back in 2015. Jenny also wrote questions for the pilot episode back in 2009, and was recommended to producers by fellow chaser Anne Hegerty who had competed on quiz teams with Jenny.

Last week, Jenny told Good Morning Britain hosts Ben Shephard and Charlotte Hawkins she and her fellow Chasers will study endlessly for the show and treat it "like a professional sport". She said: "You have to keep on top of the news, everything is changing everyday.

"There's something new to learn all the time so you have to be in work mode and keep up with the things that are changing in the world."

She later addressed rumours chasers sometimes "throw" a game out of pity for the contestants. Jenny said: "We can't afford to let our competitive instinct drop at any point. We are there to win every single match.

"We might feel guilty afterwards if we prevented a few extra quid going to charity maybe but we still have to keep up that will to win and we're as focused as ever."

On Friday, Jenny shared an update with her many social media followers. A collage she posted featured herself alongside her fellow chasers and host Bradley Walsh.

Captioning the post, she said: "It's the last day of voting for your faves! Let the @officialntas know who you want to see nominated for the 2023 awards by making your selections on their official website today...

"By chance the gang at @itvchase are longlisted in Best Daytime and Best Quiz. Just saying."

Fans wished Jenny well in the comments section. Cara said: "Have voted. Go on girl!" while Karen said: "We love you Jenny, good luck". Louis said: "Best of luck, Jenny. You’ve been on top form this series catching a 21, 20 and missing out on a 22 by one step twice."

Bobby said: "Good luck! My fave chaser!"
