Charlotte Chilton, former Traitors star, has been forced to respond to ongoing rumors claiming that a fellow contestant from the show is the father of her baby.
The speculation came after pop star Conor Maynard revealed the results of a paternity test, ruling him out as the father.
The rumors about the identity of the father have been circulating ever since a man, whose identity remains undisclosed, reportedly told friends that he could be the father of Charlotte’s daughter, Penelope.
Denial of Paternity Test Results and New Speculation
According to sources close to the situation, the man—whose name has been kept confidential—believed he could be the father after claims surfaced that he and Charlotte were intimate during early 2024.
Despite these rumors, the man has yet to undergo a paternity test, with insiders stating that he seems to be avoiding the situation.
Charlotte, however, has consistently denied that this individual is the father, adamant that no paternity test has been conducted.
This follows a recent statement from Conor Maynard, who revealed last month that a paternity test he took in the presence of Charlotte’s lawyer showed that he is not the father of her five-month-old daughter.
Despite Conor’s statement, Charlotte has publicly contested the accuracy of the test, claiming that the results were “inaccurate” and vowing to continue speaking out.
The After-Party Encounter and Growing Tensions
Charlotte’s refusal to accept the test results is rooted in new rumors about a possible encounter between her and the Traitors contestant at a celebrity after-party in early 2024.
Reports suggest that both had consumed alcohol and ended up spending the night together.
While Charlotte insists that this man is not her child’s father, the speculation continues, with sources noting that the man is stressed over the ongoing drama.
However, the man has yet to take a paternity test to settle the matter.
Charlotte, who gave birth to Penelope in October, was part of The Traitors season two alongside several other contestants.
Her time on the show made headlines, particularly when she publicly revealed that she had been married to a woman before falling pregnant after her encounter with Conor at the after-party.
She initially alleged that Conor was the father of her child, but Conor quickly dismissed the claim, leading to further public dispute.
Conor Maynard’s Public Statement on Paternity Test
Conor Maynard took to Instagram to put an end to the ongoing speculation. In a post shared with his 2.9 million followers, Conor confirmed that the paternity test he took, conducted by a registered nurse and overseen by Charlotte’s legal representative, had confirmed he is not Penelope’s father.
He expressed relief that the rumors could now be put to rest, stating, “Today I’ve received the test results which confirm that I am not Penelope’s father.
I am glad that the speculation can finally be put to an end.”
Despite this, Charlotte has raised questions about the timing and location of the paternity test, suggesting that the change in the test location might have impacted the results.
Her doubts about the test’s accuracy have fueled the ongoing public battle over Penelope’s paternity.
Charlotte Holds Back on Further Comments for Now
As the drama continues to unfold, Charlotte shared a post on Instagram expressing her gratitude for the support she has received.
In her statement, she explained that she is not currently allowed to speak out fully about the situation but assured her followers that she would address the issue when the time was right.
“A lot of people want me to address the comments regarding Conor.
There will be a time and a place for this,” Charlotte wrote, adding, “Unfortunately, I am not allowed to do this right now… Just know I love all the support I have received, and I appreciate all the love we continuously have been receiving! Love, Charlotte and Penelope.”
The identity of the former Traitors contestant involved in the rumors remains protected for legal reasons, and they have declined to comment on the situation when approached by MailOnline.
