The Chase star Darragh Ennis ask fans to 'pray' for him with 'dead eyes' selfie

The Chase star Darragh Ennis took to Instagram this week to ask his fans to "pray" for him.

The 41-year-old Irish entomologist and neuroscientist couldn't resist sharing a snap on the 'gram as he enjoyed a holiday in super sunny location.

In the selfie, Darragh is grinning from ear-to-ear and showing off his curly locks as he stands on the balcony of his accommodation.

Behind him is the ocean as well as a clear blue sky and plenty of trees - but it's unsure exactly where he is.

Clearly feeling sarcastic, Darragh simply captioned the post: "Look at those dead eyes. #PrayForBones."

His 12,000 followers were quick to comment on the photo with one person writing: "Love him, he’s so darn cute. Love his curly hair."

Another person said: "With that view behind you, no-one could have dead eyes."

Someone else tried to guess his location and commented: "Dead gorgeous eyes. Looks like Ibiza to me?"

Darragh is no stranger to posting on Instagram and loves to keep his fans in the loop about what he's up to.

In April 2020, Darragh was announced as the sixth chaser on The Chase (ITV)

He also likes to give them a glimpse at life behind-the-scenes for a Chaser and recently shared a backstage video on TikTok and Instagram.

In the short clip, Darragh is in the studio and heading to his dressing room as he prepares to film another episode of Beat The Chasers.

In April 2020, Darragh was announced as the sixth chaser on The Chase, alongside Mark Labbett, Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha and Jenny Ryan.

His Chaser-debut episode was aired on November 19, 2020 and brought in 4.9 million viewers, making it the most watched episode of The Chase ever.

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV and ITV Hub.
