And the EastEnders star later took to Instagram to post a clip of them all watching the show together.

Natalie's loved ones are seen screaming after the big reveal and turning to look at her in shock.

As she held her youngest daughter Joanie, seven, Natalie laughed when she was asked: "How have you done that?"

She wrote alongside the video: " When you think something is really scary and you can’t think of anything worse - but you know it will be fun... DO IT.

"I am not a singer, but I was made to feel like one! I had the most amazing time doing this show.

"I was absolutely petrified, but everyone looked after me and I felt so loved. To see the kids so excited when I was unmasked was the best thing ever. So happy the secret is out!"

Natalie is also mum to daughter Eliza, 13.

The reveal came after Natalie left soap fans stunned earlier this month when she made the decision to quit EastEnders after 32 years as Sonia Fowler.

Opening up about the shock career move, she later told The Sun: "I’m 42 this year, I just feel like it’s time to be brave.

“You don’t want to get to 70 and think, ‘I never tried that’.

“I’ve loved this programme with all my heart. I started at ten, it’s in my bones, it’s in my heart."

Natalie made the decision following a heart-to-heart with the soap’s top boss Chris Clenshaw six months ago.

She said: “I’d been thinking about it for a little while. I had a wonderful chat with Chris back in the summer. It’s just exciting."
