supportive messages as she sent a message during her final breakfast show. The Liverpudlian has fronted the early morning programme for listeners in the region for over a decade.
However, it was announced earlier this year that Hits Radio, formerly Radio City, will stop broadcasting the show this summer and be replaced by a national programme. Leanne currently hosts
the breakfast show alongside Joel Ross, as the two were teamed together when parent company, Bauer Media, merged Radio City's breakfast show with Rock FM's last year.
Their last show in the 6am - 10am slot is currently being broadcast on the airwaves. Leanne took to Instagram to share a message with fans as she reflected on her two decade plus career on
the radio.
She said: "For the last time our 96.7 will broadcast from Liverpool & a scouser will sit behind the mic. The things we’ve been through together!
"22 years of life on the radio with you all is what I’ll cherish my whole life. Thank you. How lucky am I to have had you lot to talk to.It’s the end of our amazing adventure. Completed it
mate."
