“When I was 17, I had a fantastic idea that I might meet the love of my life on a date in a chicken shop,” her IG caption began.
“I’ve spent my entire twenties sitting across from the most incredible people, people I’d always dreamt of meeting. All of them charmed me (some more than others), and I definitely charmed them.
“To me, the show is my very own romcom, and I have loved creating so many stories for you to watch. I am so grateful to everyone who has followed me on this journey and found some joy in these episodes.”
“I never thought I’d stop Chicken Shop Date, I thought maybe it would be a part of me forever, and in some way it always will, but I feel like it’s now time to move on from this adventure and onto a new one,” she continued.
“But before I say goodbye forever, I want to celebrate everything Chicken Shop Date has been for me with a few final dates…coming very soon.”
Alongside the heartfelt caption, the post featured a series of the iconic red checkered napkins with messages including “All good dates must come to an end” and “Chicken Shop Date: The Final Series Coming Soon”.
