Maya Jama 'in only one episode' of The Masked Singer's next series amid Love Island exit
Maya Jama's career has gone to another level following her successful appearance on The Celebrity Traitors.
After reaching the final as a Traitor, along with a stellar performance in Netflix's The Gentleman, the sky is the limit for the star presenter.
Not only has Jama stepped down from hosting Love Island but, according to The Sun, she will hardly feature on the upcoming series of The Masked Singer.

The television personality replaced Rita Ora as a judge on the popular guessing game show in January 2025, where she sits on the judging panel alongside Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan.
The Sun reported that Jama will only appear in one episode of the series despite being one of the main panellists, as the outlet also suggests that the presenter may not return for the upcoming season, expected to film in late 2027.
Digital Spy has reached out to ITV for comment on this matter.
While she seems to have paused her working relationship with ITV, Jama has cemented her status with Netflix.
Variety reports that she has signed a deal with the streaming platform following her role on the second season of The Gentleman.
"I'm absolutely buzzing to be working with Netflix!,” Jama's statement read. “There are some really exciting things coming and I can't wait for everyone to see what we've been working on.
“I can’t give too much away just yet, but I'm so excited for this next chapter. Watch this space!”
Anne Mensah, Netflix's vice president of UK content, added: "Maya is fabulous. She has an infectious energy and an ability to captivate audiences.
“We adored working with her on The Gentlemen, and we're absolutely delighted for her to be an even bigger part of the Netflix family."
The Masked Singer UK airs on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
