To celebrate her 64th birthday, the singer said: "Today’s a special day — it’s my birthday! But I’ve got something exciting to share… I’m back and working on some wonderful new projects that I can’t wait for you to hear about!

"More news will be coming very soon, but I just wanted to say how much I’ve missed you all. Your support means the world to me and I’m more determined and excited than ever. 

Fans of the singer were thrilled to see the announcement of her return, with some commenting on her post to share their excitement. One fan said, "Can't wait to see you performing again!!" and another added, "Very happy to hear this. Welcome back!"

Following her viral performance, which propelled her to global stardom, Susan was widely tipped to win the show and earn a coveted spot on the Royal Variety Performance. However, she ultimately finished second to dance troupe Diversity, which featured the now famous dancing brothers Ashley and Jordan Banjo.
