Who are the confirmed judges for the new season of The Masked Singer?

The rumours are rolling in and that can only really mean one thing – yep, The Masked Singer is about to be back on our screens for a whole new season.

Although much is still under wraps about air dates and what mysterious animal or mythical beast will get behind the mic, it seems that we're being drip-fed details, with each week bringing a new juicy fact.

This week it's all about the judges – who are they, where are they from and what do they do with themselves. It's recently been confirmed that we're going to see new faces that will likely cause a stir and some familiar ones returning too.

Watch the FBoy Island trailer. Story continues after post.

So without further ado, these will be our judges for the upcoming season of The Masked Singer.

The Masked Singer judge 2023: Abbie Chatfield

The first to confirm she'll be returning for another wild season of reality guess who is Abbie Chatfield.

After appearing on the seventh season of The Bachelor Australia, Abbie became a huge television personality, scoring a gig on radio and launching her own podcast titled It's A Lot.

Since then Abbie has gone on to become somewhat of a feminist icon, openly discussing sex and taboo topics which she has been praised for. 

We cannot wait to see the energy she brings to the new season of The Masked Singer.

The Masked Singer judge 2023: David Hughes

The only male judge to be on this year's panel is none other than David Hughes – but you probably best know this comedic fella by his nickname 'Hughesy'.

If we're going off the previous seasons, it's likely that the show will air in the latter half of the year, but until then we will keep you updated with all The Masked Singer news.
