The Masked Singer fans unearth awkward Charlotte Church tweet about the show

The Masked Singer UK final saw Natalie Imbruglia crowned 2022 winner after being unveiled as Panda, with Welsh singer and songwriter Charlotte Church coming runner-up as Mushroom.

Viewers at home and judges on the panel had been convinced Charlotte was behind the mask for quite some time, but in 2020 Charlotte seemed less keen to take part in the series.

"I'm not on that bloody show!" she hilariously tweeted during the first series after her name kept cropping up on social media.

During the final, viewers unearthed the tweet, with one writing: "What a difference two years make."

While another simply added: "You are now."

Charlotte had been hotly tipped to be behind Mushroom for quite some time, thanks to her incredible vocals and a string of clues that pointed to the star.

One Welsh clue from Mushroom read: "I stole the show from my modryb."

After her reveal Charlotte told how the clue referenced her time on the Jonathan Ross show where she stole the limelight from her aunt. Modryb is Welsh for auntie.

"I knew it was Charlotte Church, she did incredible," wrote one viewer. "So sad she just missed out on the win."

While another added: "Charlotte church was robbed! She should've won. Her voice is absolutely stunning!"

Following the finale, Charlotte said: " I absolutely loved being your Mushroom, what a joy to be a part of something so focused on singing, which I love! Congrats to the darling Panda and everyone else who took part!"
