Charlotte has long insisted Penelope is Conor's child |
The Initial Allegations
Charlotte Chilton, a rising reality TV personality, became well-known through her participation in The Traitors, a high-stakes psychological game show. Following the show’s conclusion, Chilton made headlines by announcing her pregnancy and alleging that Conor Maynard was the father.
Maynard, famous for his chart-topping hits like Can't Say No and Vegas Girl, initially remained silent on the matter. However, as media speculation grew, Chilton publicly criticized him, accusing him of neglecting his responsibilities. She claimed that Maynard had distanced himself from her and their alleged child, stating that she had been left to raise Penelope alone without any support.
Maynard’s Response and DNA Test Results
For months, Conor Maynard neither confirmed nor denied Chilton’s claims, leading many to believe that he might be waiting for legal proceedings. However, on March 14, 2025, he broke his silence by releasing a statement on social media, where he announced that a paternity test had proven he was not the biological father of Penelope.
In his post, Maynard expressed both relief and frustration over the situation, stating:
“I want to clarify that after taking a DNA test, the results show that I am not the father of Penelope. While this has been an incredibly difficult and confusing time, I hope this puts an end to the speculation and allows all parties to move forward in a positive way. My heart goes out to the child, who should never have been caught up in such public controversy.”
His announcement sent shockwaves across social media, with fans expressing mixed reactions. Some supported him, while others questioned Chilton’s motives in naming him as the father in the first place.
Charlotte Chilton’s Silence and Legal Implications
Interestingly, Chilton has yet to respond publicly to Maynard’s DNA test results. While she previously threatened legal action against him for financial support, the new developments raise serious questions. If Maynard is not the father, does Chilton know the real identity of Penelope’s biological father, or was she mistaken all along?
Legal experts suggest that if Chilton knowingly misrepresented Maynard’s paternity, she could face legal repercussions. Filing a claim for child support against someone who is not the father could be considered fraud in certain jurisdictions. However, if she genuinely believed Maynard was the father, the situation becomes more complex.
Speculation About the Real Father
Now that Maynard has been ruled out, speculation has turned to who might actually be the father of Penelope. Social media is flooded with theories, with some users suggesting that another high-profile celebrity or a member of The Traitors cast could be involved.
Some fans have pointed to Chilton’s previous close friendship with The Traitors winner Harry Clark, claiming that the timeline of their interactions raises questions. However, Clark has distanced himself from the controversy, refusing to comment publicly. Chilton previously criticized him for "ghosting" her when she needed support the most.
Could Penelope’s father be someone else from the entertainment industry? Or is Chilton hiding something deeper? Until she speaks out, these questions remain unanswered.

The Public Reaction
As expected, the internet has had a field day with this drama. Many people have expressed sympathy for Maynard, who was unfairly thrust into a paternity scandal. Others have criticized Chilton for not verifying the father’s identity before making public claims.
Twitter and Reddit discussions are rife with debates about celebrity responsibility, media sensationalism, and the ethical implications of falsely identifying a child’s father. Some believe Chilton made an honest mistake, while others suspect she intentionally misled the public for attention.
What Happens Next?
With the DNA test results now public, the focus shifts entirely to Charlotte Chilton. Will she come forward with the identity of Penelope’s real father? Will another celebrity be dragged into the controversy? Or will this story fade away as an unsolved mystery?
For now, one thing is clear: the drama surrounding Charlotte Chilton, Conor Maynard, and baby Penelope is far from over.
