Masked Singer's Katherine Ryan gives Jacket Potato clue after losing sing -off
Katherine Ryan has revealed her guesses at who her fellow secret celebrities on The Masked Singer are after she was revealed as Pigeon on the ITV singing competition.
The 39-year-old comedian was revealed as the character on Saturday evening’s show, after weeks of putting fans off the scent by adopting an Essex accent.
Katherine had the judging panel completely fooled, with most convinced it was either Gemma Collins or Stacey Solomon as the rapping grandmother character.
The Canadian comedian, who gave birth to her third child in December, said that a big part of why she chose her puffed up Pigeon costume was its ability to disguise her baby bump.
However, her pipes weren’t enough this weekend as she landed in the bottom two alongside Jacket Potato, who the judges Davina McCall, Jonathon Ross, Rita Ora and Mo Gilligan ultimately decided to save instead.

“I don't have any guesses but I feel almost competitive about that. Like my competition was, is Pigeon funnier than Otter?
Katherine was heavily pregnant at the time (ITV)“And it really, really riles me up when people would say how funny Otter was. I was like, who is she?
