Chris Kamara has shared the heartwarming moment he was revealed as The Masked Singer in front of his grandchildren.
The ever-popular 'Kammy' found TV fame displaying his personality on Jeff Stelling's Sky Soccer Saturday and became a household name in the TV presenter world. However, this year he revealed that he is struggling with speech apraxia, something which massively effects his line of work.
Kamara quit Sky after 24 years, with slurred speech making it difficult for him to continue reporting. However, he has continued working on radio and in television. According to ITV, he kept his role in The Masked Singer a secret so that he could surprise his family.

The children chanted "take it off" before Kammy was unveiled as the man behind 'Ghost', and the boy on his lap shouted "It's Grandad!" and the girl in the foreground exclaimed "It's my Grandad!". Kamara was cracking up in the background.

According to ITV, Kamara said, "My grandkids love the characters and we love to play along. I can't say I'm particularly good with my guesses though."
He also revealed that he had "done the show for them". The judges on the show thought The Masked Singer would be Scouse comedian John Bishop or TV presenter and comedian Iain Stirling. Chris gave clues that he had brought out two albums, and done duets with Robbie Williams and Danny Jones.
The judges, who include Rita Ora and Jonathan Ross, were completely blown away by the reveal, as presenter Joel Dommett exclaimed, "I love you man".
