Never mind the Golden Globes or Winter Love Island, there’s one thing that’s dominating pop culture conversation at the moment. Yes, The Masked Singer.

The ITV series - which is the first UK version of the South Korean hit - began airing over the weekend and fans were soon guessing who the mystery celebrities taking part are.

One of the stars whose name has cropped up on multiple occasions is Ashley Roberts - and during Tuesday’s (January 7) Heart Radio breakfast show, the Pussycat Dolls singer fuelled speculation she’s one of the performers.

Host Amanda Holden quizzed Roberts - who presents the programme’s showbiz segment - on her alleged involvement in the ITV competition and playing coy, she replied: “I mean I’ve had a crazy busy schedule lately…”

“I love a costume,” she teased. “I mean, you know I do like to have a little dress up.”

Picking out one of the characters Roberts could be performing as, Holden’s co-host Jamie Theakston pressed: “So you’re not denying this, well I’m just going to put it to you. Are you Daisy?

“I think you need to watch the show and find out don’t you? Don’t you? Don’t you?,” Robert replied, adding: “I don’t know who it is. I really don’t.”

Holden then noted that Roberts wasn’t “making eye contact” with her while Theakston claimed she was “being shifty.”

Each episode of The Masked Singer sees one celebrity revealed with Patsy Palmer and Alan Johnson - yes, the former home secretary - being unmasked at the weekend.

Fans on Twitter have been busy trying to guess who the remaining 10 performers are with everyone from Gary Numan to Emilia Clarke being touted as possibilities.
