Masked Singer UK fans rumble Jellyfish as Strictly and Corrie star

Jellyfish has been rumbled as a Strictly Come Dancing star and former Coronation Street legend on The Masked Singer UK.

The show returned today, with Joel Dommett at the helm as he hosted the programme in a pastel green suit. The four panellists - Jonathan Ross, Rita Ora, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan - were all on hand to offer their suggestions on who might be behind the masks during the fourth series of the popular ITV guessing game show.

Jellyfish was the second star to take to the stage and they impressed with an incredible performance of Sweet Child O'Mine.

In their clue package, Jellyfish appeared to be female as she said she was "all about love". She also said she has "unexpectedly won" before. Before she left the stage, she gave the judges one more clue in the form of a riddle.

"Give me good vibes only, that's a great salutation. Let's love and not hate, like a funny animation," she said.

Judge Davina had previously confessed in pre-show interviews that Jellyfish had made her cry on one occassion.

"Jellyfish is an extraordinary performer and has made us all feel pretty emotional," she said. Her co-star Rita Ora admitted she was drawn to both Jellyfish and Rhino, adding: "I think the characters I’m really drawn towards are Jellyfish and Rhino. And some of them really make me laugh, like Otter. Those three are the ones that stand out most to me."

Now fans of the ITV show are sure they know who is behind the Jellyfish mask - and they're a recent Strictly star and also had a longstanding role on ITV soap Coronation Street as Michelle Connor.

Giving their verdict, one fan said: "Jellyfish is Kym Marsh (as her character from Coronation Street was called Michelle) #MaskedSingerUK," as another added: "Michelle Connor from Corrie played by @msm4rsh. Jellyfish is Kym!! #MaskedSingerUK."

A third shared: "Kym Marsh played Michelle Connor in Corrie #MaskedSingerUK Jellyfish," with a fourth writing: "Morning TV? Kym Marsh hosts Morning Live, Knitting is Kym Marsh #MaskedSingerUK."
