‘The Masked Singer UK’ revealed its latest unmasking during Saturday’s third live show. 

During Time Machine week, five acts took to the stage to perform songs from five decades: 1950s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and 2010s.

Ultimately, the bottom two saw Cat and Mouse face off against Knitting, with the former act eliminated from the contest following a rendition of There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back by Shawn Mendes.

After revealing their masks, judges Rita Ora, Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall and Jonathan Ross were stunned to discover the duo was none other than Spandau Ballet star Martin Kemp and his wife, former Wham! and Pepsi & Shirlie star, Shirlie Kemp.

However, no one was more surprised than their son Roman Kemp, with the presenter taking to social media to share his disbelief. 

In footage of the family watching the show, he’s seen jumping off the sofa and shouting: “Shut the fuck up!

“Oh my God, I knew it!” he continued. “You’re a liar! Look at you both there! You are such a liar!”

He later tweeted: “I JUST SHOUTED THE PHRASE “TAKE IT OFF” TO MY PARENTS I CANT UNDO THAT.”

Meanwhile, Shirlie revealed how the pair hid their involvement from their kids, tweeting: “And to think, our kids thought we were on a romantic getaway…”

After they were voted off the show, they told host Joel Dommett they were “doing it to embarrass” their kids.

So far this series, footballer Chris Kamara and singer Lulu have also been unmasked, with Jellyfish, Otter, Knitting, Phoenix, Fawn, Jacket Potato, Pigeon, Rhino and Rubbish remaining in the competition.

Fans at home already believe they’ve rumbled the identities of Knitting and Rhino.

‘The Masked Singer UK’ airs Saturday nights on ITV1.
