Conor Maynard's 'one night stand' with Charlotte Chilton as DNA 'truth' revealed

Singer Conor Maynard released a statement on Instagram after revealing he took a paternity test regarding the daughter of The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton

Conor Maynard and The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton were thought to have parented a child together, but the singer has said that is not actually the case.

On Friday, he took to Instagram to reveal the results of a paternity test. He wrote: "Earlier this week, I took a paternity test regarding Charlotte Chilton's baby girl, Penelope, in the presence of her legal representative. "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."

He added: "All I would ask is that people act with kindness in response to this news - there is a child at the heart of all of this and that should not be forgotten. I wish Charlotte and her family all the best. Conor."

It comes after the musician, who is known for his many Drake covers on YouTube, had a one night stand with Charlotte after meeting her at a club on the night of the final of The Traitors. She previously announced she was expecting her first child and claimed that Conor was the father.

In June last year, she said that Conor was the father of her unborn 'miracle' baby, having fallen pregnant as the result of a one night stand. She had previously suffered seven miscarriages undergoing IVF with her ex-wife, Laura.

Appearing on Loose Women in July last year, Charlotte opened up about her pregnancy and revealed that she was doing it completely alone after Conor reportedly made it clear that he did not want to be apart of their baby's life. She told the panel that she had been in touch with Conor, but he had failed to respond at the time.

She said: "I'm always torn with what's best for the baby. For me and my mental health, and the damage that Conor has done to me, I absolutely wouldn't want him in my life. But, I'm an adult and I understand what I've entered into here and if that's how it has to be then I have to suck it up and put her first.

"I would like it for her at some point in her life, but I don't think there's really much point at this stage, but in the future maybe - that might be nice for her. But it's got to be all Penelope's decision."

In October 2024, she made the sweet announcement that she he had welcomed her baby. She captioned her social media post: "Princess Penelope has arrived and we have been enjoying our ‘Penelope bubble’ so much,I am going to be off the radar for a little longer, whilst I enjoy these magical moments with my precious girl!! Thank you to all that have checked in to make sure I am ok!! My heart is full xx."

The following month, she spoke to OK! about giving birth. She opened up about her relationship with her family since the arrival of her baby, saying: We went through a real 'hate' phase when I first got pregnant but we're friends again now and she's been great.
