The first celebrity has been unmasked on The Masked Singer UK season 3, with Heather Small being revealed to be Chandelier.

Chandelier was chosen to go home by judges Rita Ora, Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan and Davina McCall after landing in the bottom three with Mushroom and Firework.

Despite wowing with her vocals in her performance of Crazy by Patsy Cline, the audience chose not to save her in the first round.

Mo was especially wowed when Heather’s mask came off, expressing how much of a fan he is of the former lead singer of the band M People.

Heather revealed that she tried to conceal her voice in her first performance, as she thought her real voice would be too recognisable.

Masked Singer UK fans were astounded by the big reveal, with several admitting they had no idea it was the musician behind the mask.

‘Well, who on Earth managed to guess that Chandelier was Heather Small?’ one person tweeted.

‘Heather Small… I’m gobsmacked,’ someone else said.

One viewer remarked: ‘Heather Small? I am shooketh,’ while another said: ‘It is criminal that Heather Small was sent home first.’

The Masked Singer UK airs on ITV and ITV Hub.
