THE Masked Singer fans have shared theories that Firework is EastEnders legend and former I'm A Celeb contestant Rita Simons.
Rita, 44, starred in EastEnders as Roxy Mitchell for ten years before leaving in 2017.
In The Masked Singer's latest episode, a reference to 'Chicago' left viewers in a tizz thanks to the famous musical of the same name.
The main character is called Roxie Hart, leaving sofa detectives at home cheering when they spotted a connection.
Taking to Twitter, one viewer mused: "I think Firework in #TheMaskedSinger is Roxy from EastEnders, can't remember her real but the clues make sense"
Another wrote: "Firework could be @OfficialRita Rita Simons – Roxy from eastenders #MaskedSinger"
One more said: "Yes!! Roxy from EastEnders!"
Rita – who is also known for taking part in I'm A Celebrity in 2018 – left EastEnders on New Year's Day five years ago along with Samantha Womack, who played her sister Ronnie Mitchell.
Their dramatic exit storyline saw the sisters drown in a swimming pool.
Rita is also the niece of the billionaire and Apprentice star Lord Sugar.
