The character was tonight unmasked as EastEnders legend Natalie Cassidy - aka Sonia Fowler.
Speaking afterwards, Natalie said: "It's been one the best jobs I've ever done. Absolutely amazing.
"My fourteen year old she's either going to say, 'mum I'm really proud of you or this is the most embarrassing thing me for me ever!'"
It comes as fans had guessed Natalie was Bush for several weeks - with many thrilled to be correct.

One wrote: "So bear was example and bush was Natalie Cassidy. I was right!"
Another added: "Who had Natalie Cassidy as a singing bush doing Thank you For the Music on the 2025 bingo card-and just over a week before anniversary week as well."
Natalie follows in the footsteps of EastEnders on-screen sister Patsy Palmer - who was Butterfly back in series one.
To keep the secret, she had previously adamantly denied being Bush after fans guessed her identity.

She added: "We have worked together for a whole year.

Viewers had similarly sussed out his identity early on - and were delighted to be proven right.
One penned: "AGGH EXAMPLE WAS BEAR! See? To all the people who argued with me online saying it’s not example!!!
Who has left The Masked Singer 2025 so far?
Much to the delight of telly fans, The Masked Singer is back in 2025.
Twelve celebrities have been hidden behind intricate costumes, with their identities concealed.
Sadly, not all of this year's whacky and wonderful characters can make it to the end of the show, as there can only be one winner.
Here's who has been unmasked so far:
Snail - this singer certainly fooled the judges as the mask was lifted to reveal Andrea Corr. Jonathan Ross admitted to being a huge fan of The Corrs
Kingfisher - everyone was convinced this was Harry Hill, but the mask was lifted to reveal artist Sir Grayson Perry, who is known for his alter-ego Claire
Teeth - this character baffled judges and viewers with their changing voice. They were finally unmasked as former Bake Off host Mel Giedroyc. None of the panel managed to guess it was her
Tattoo - despite Davina McCall saying "you sound the same" after this character was unmasked, none of the judges guessed it was 80s singer Carol Decker, whose hit China In Your Hand was a No1 hit for five weeks
Toad In The Hole - a massive diva strop saw the character storm off the stage after the judges voted them off. They later returned to be unmasked as singer Macy Gray
Pegasus - the mythical horse was revealed to be Prue Leith, with judge Jonathan Ross correctly guessing her identity
Spag Bol - this character was first to be unmasked and was none other than Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway.
Plus there was one extra unmasking this season, with Giant Joel - a caricature of host Joel Dommett - unveiled as double-double Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah.
"I kept on saying it’s him but no one believed me."
Another wrote: "’I'm a massive fan of Example and I own all of his CDs. I would have slapped myself if I didn’t get him right."
Bush and Bear's departures mean just Wolf, Dressed Crab and Pufferfish advanced to next week's Grand Final.
