Who is the Viking on the Masked Singer?

In the Viking’s VT on the show, they described themselves as an “explorer” and a “curious kind”.

The mystery celebrity shared: “We discover answers, and in my career, throughout this competition, I’ll be looking for a voice.”

The celeb kept emphasising the word “King” in Viking, which could mean they are a former King of the Jungle on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!

After the impressive rendition of Fleetwood Mac hit Songbird, Viking provided a clue in which he said he wears “another kind of armour”.

What are the latest fan theories?

Masked Singer viewers believe it could be James Blunt underneath the helmet and massive beard as he once served in the army.

One viewer tweeted: “Viking maybe James Blunt he wears another armour guarding the Queen #MaskedSingerUK.”

While another added: “I think the Viking is James Blunt. He said he had a different kind of armour… he was in the army… and I recognise the voice! #MaskedSingerUK.”

Fans also thought it could be Love island presenter Iain Stirling, as one wrote: “I already can tell you Viking is Ian Stirling.

“Vikings are Scottish though there also Nordic. Scotland are Clans. Please reply and agree! I’ve noted this in my own detective pad!”
