ITV The Masked Singer: New clues that Charlotte Church could be Mushroom are dropped on latest episode of her TV property show

With ITV's The Masked Singer UK reaching its series finale and just three celebrity participants remaining, speculation on who is behind each mask is gaining momentum.

After Traffic Cone and Rockhopper were unmasked to reveal Welsh singer Aled Jones and Destiny Child's Michelle Williams in the penultimate episode, just Mushroom, Robobunny and Panda remain.

These three will now compete in the final, amongst growing speculation that behind the mushroom mask is Wels singer Charlotte Church.

And the latest episode of Charlotte Church's Dream Build on the Really Channel and streaming on Discovery+ has done nothing to dispel the growing conviction on social media that Charlotte is indeed behind the mushroom costume as she goes foraging... for mushrooms.

The eight-part series follows Charlotte's journey of transforming fashion icon Laura Ashley's former home called Rhydoldog House into a health and wellbeing retreat.

Charlotte bought the Powys mansion in 2021 to renovate and update into her dream project, with the 33 acres of glorious land being the main reason why she fell in love with the property proposition.

This latest TV instalment of Rhydoldog's reimagining sees Charlotte teaching some of the onsite volunteers how to sing, standing in the grounds at sunrise.

Charlotte tells the participants about the different methods of singing that can produce different types of voices including a 'pop singer' voice.

She demonstrates how she can make her voice sound different depending on how she breathes and where the voice is projected from... could these be tricks she would use as Mushroom on The Masked Singer?

But maybe it's the final segment of the programme will get The Masked Singer fans over-excited.

Accompanied by expert forager Amy, Charlotte wanders off into her woodland to go looking for... mushrooms.

Charlotte says: "My relationship with plants and foraging and this sort of field is newly developing so having people close by who can guide us, teach us and help us identify things.

"I think it's a really important part of what I want to do here, I think it's a massive part of reconnecting people with nature, food and sustenance.

"So I think it's going to be a really important part of what I want to do at the healing retreat centre but for me I feel like I'm right at the beginning of a journey of discovery."

In the woodland Amy finds a stinkhorn mushroom at the egg stage, which she says are used in Asian cooking.

Combined with some beef steak fungus, and other added ingredients Amy has brought from her farm, when the group return from foraging in the forest, she cooks the group a 'wild lunch' feast.

Of course, any foraging comes with a very serious health warning not to pick and eat anything on your own without a known expert to guide you.

Charlotte says - "Now boys and girls, I've got Amy on hand, so don't go picking these mushrooms without your own expert guidance!" - unless of course you're picking Charlotte as being Mushroom on The Masked Singer.

Episode five of Charlotte Church's Dream Build is on Discovery's Really channel on Tuesday, February 8 at 9pm. All episodes are available to stream on discovery+. Find out more about previous episodes of Charlotte Church's Dream Build here.

The final of The Masked Singer UK, when the identity of Mushroom will be revealed, is on Saturday, February 12 at 7pm on ITV.
