Masked Singer fans convinced Air Fryer is an EastEnders legend
The Masked Singer UK fans believe an EastEnders favourite is in disguise as Air Fryer.
The Masked Singer UK 2024 fans think an EastEnders legend is hiding behind Air Fryer's mask.
Air Fryer, Bubble Tea, Owl, Piranha and Eiffel Tower took to the stage for school disco week, with guest judge Jennifer Saunders joining the panel to replace Rita Ora.
As the masked celebrities battled it out, sleuths believe that they may have guessed who could be behind Air Fryer's mask.
Fans have speculated that Air Fryer could be Tameka Empson, who has played the legendary Kim Fox in EastEnders since 2009, after some clues they think could be related to the soap.
In week two, a pair of hairdressing scissors and a mirror were shown during her clue package, which could be hinting that Tameka's character Kim works at a hair salon.
On Saturday night's episode (January, 20) one of Air Fryer's Clue or False rumours were: "I'll tell you what, that maths lesson had me going around in squares," which could have been another hint to her soap role as Kim lives in Albert Square.
Throughout the competition, Air Fryer has proven to be an exceptional singer and Tameka is an experienced theatre actress, having appeared in a number of musicals.
