The Masked Singer has come to its conclusion in a nail-biting final that saw Moth triumph over Conkers and Toastie, but who was behind the mask?
It was finally revealed that Moth had been Sugababes singer Keisha Buchanan all along, with the iconic songstress triumphing over This Morning presenter Ben Shephard, who was Conkers, and singer Mica Paris, who had performed as Toastie.
Mica was eliminated first after singing Eurythmics' Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves, while Keisha was able to triumph over Ben thanks to her performance of Only Girl (In the World), which was released by Rihanna.
Speaking about her win after her unmasking, Keisha said: "I can't believe I got through it. It was so gruelling but beautiful. I did a song that I've never done, like Whitney [Houston], I've never sung a Whitney song! Aerosmith, that was the scariest one."
She added: "Whitney and Aerosmith were the hardest because I knew her, I never wanted to do her songs because I loved her so much. She was an amazing person. And Aerosmith, I just can’t rap to save my life, so it was such a challenge."
Fan reaction
Taking to social media after the episode aired, one fan enthused: "KEISHA BUCHANAN WON THE MASKED SINGER UK!!!" while a second added: "MOTHER KEISHA WINNING THE MASKED SINGER I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT."
A third penned: "YESSSSSS!!!! The winner of Masked Singer UK Season 7 is Moth, which was revealed as Keisha Buchanan. I am so happy Keisha won, she's got such a beautiful voice she deserved to win so much. Congratulations Keisha Buchanan."
Another focused on Ben Shephard finishing as the runner-up, as they teased: "Ben Shephard deserves runner-up purely for being on the panel on the second episode and then interviewing the contestants every week on This Morning and still keeping up the act."
As ever, fans had been divided as to who was behind the mask in the run-up to the final, with some speculating that Conkers could have been Robbie Williams or former Olympic athlete Tom Daley.
