She also shared a series of other snaps from her time on the show, from pictures of her behind the mic, to glamorous photos of her walking into the studio.
Vicky continued: “As a proud Geordie I have absolutely loved presenting This Is Heart in the North East – it has honestly been a dream come true- the most incredible adventure.
“From having it on my vision board to actually hosting the Great North Run, to skating with Disney On Ice gang at Arena Newcastle and the endless laughs we’ve had along the way!
“I will miss the time spent up here, the extra time it allowed me to spend with my family and friends in the north and mostly I will miss my amazing team.
“And honestly, I can’t wait to see what everyone achieves next.”
The reality TV Queen then revealed model and presenter Kelly Brook would be stepping into her shoes.
She went on to say: “I wanted to thank every single one of our listeners… we love you!!!
“You’re the best and I’m so grateful for all your texts, calls and messages! We smashed records with our ratings- time after time and that is because of you guys. So Thankyou!!! You’re amazing!”
She added: “We are leaving you in the super capable hands of the gorgeous Kelly Brook and Jason King who are AMAZING!!!”
Vicky said she will would be leaving in style as she prepares for one more week at the station.

Another added: “Am gutted! What am I going to listen to on the way home from work now.”
Shortly after landing the radio job two years ago, Vicky told how she hoped to follow in the footsteps of Amanda Holden.
Vicky exclusively told us : “Amanda Holden is my absolute girl crush.
“I am obsessed with her.
“So any links or comparisons between myself and her I will always take as a huge compliment.
“I love Jamie, Amanda and Ashley on Heart, it’s one of my favourite breakfast listens, so yes the dream for me is definitely to have my own show and to join the Heart family permanently.”
Vicky Pattison added: “So let’s see how it goes, hopefully I will impress and all the northern listeners like me.
“I am feeling really nervous but super excited.”
Vicky’s move into radio had been on the cards for a while, with the former Geordie Shore star secretly attending test trail sessions with bosses at Heart.
An insider said: “Vicky has a great connection with the nation and is instantly personable but sometimes on radio it can be hard to connect.
However, it only took a few tests before bosses realised she was a natural.
“Obviously behind the scenes there are producers to help her with the technical side of things so all she has to worry about is being herself. So far everyone is really impressed.”
