ITV The Chase contestant stuns fans as she admits age

A Chase contestant shocked fans tonight as she revealed her age.

Retired property agent Sharon chatted to host Bradley Walsh before going up against The Dark Destroyer, Shaun Wallace, who was tonight's Chaser.

Sharon, originally from Glasgow, told Bradley how she was a French property agent and had worked for years helping people buy property overseas.

Speaking about what she wanted to do if she won some cash, Sharon said: "I want to go on a Mediterranean cruise with my husband Jonathan to celebrate a big birthday, we've both had a big birthday recently."

But fans were stunned to discover the big birthday she was referring to was turning 60, in tonight's repeat episode.

And many of them took to social media to express their shock.

New episodes of The Chase are set to air tomorrow, much to fans joy, after they grew tired of the repeats caused by lockdown.
