Conor Maynard claims he is NOT the father of The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton's baby after 'taking paternity test'

Conor Maynard has claimed he is not the father of The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton’s baby after taking a paternity test.

Charlotte, 32, revealed last June that Conor was the father of her ‘miracle’ baby. She became pregnant after a one-night stand, following a tough journey of seven miscarriages while undergoing IVF with her former wife.

She claimed he ghosted her after finding out she was pregnant and has refused to acknowledge baby Penelope as his own. 

However, Conor has made a shocking revelation by stating that a paternity test indicates he is not the biological father of the child as claimed by the BBC personality.

In a post on Instagram, Conor disclosed, ‘I underwent a paternity test this week concerning Penelope, Charlotte Chiltern’s baby girl. The test was conducted in the presence of her legal advisor.’

‘Today I’ve recieved 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 continued: ‘All I would ask is that people act with kindess 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.’

MailOnline has contacted a representative for Charlotte for comment. 

At the time of her shock announcement claiming that Conor was the father back in June, speaking to OK!, Charlotte said: ‘He knows [I’ve given birth] I’ve not heard anything, I had real torment over whether to contact him when she was here or not.

‘And I figured I don’t want to speak to him, but he has a right to know. I knew if I didn’t reach out people would say I hadn’t bothered’.

Charlotte also spoke candidly about her post natal anxiety and the fact that Penelope looks just like her alleged father.

‘There have been days where I’ve been in tears because I’m sitting here thinking, ‘I’ve got a daughter that looks f**king identical to you’.

She went on to discuss whether she wanted Conor to be part of her daughter’s life, stating: ‘If she wants to walk away from him, that’s fine, but she needs to make that decision for herself when she’s older, I’m not going to deny her contact if he decides he wants to see her.’

Conor’s bombshell claim comes just after Charlotte opened up about the financial hardships she faces as a single mother.

In an exclusive chat with MailOnline, Charlotte explained not just the mental but practical implications of the fallout, confessing she’s been forced to work around the clock as a new mum just to make ends meet.

Charlotte – who has launched her recruitment consultancy business – explained: ‘You struggle financially to make ends start in a new business.

‘You don’t take a salary very often in your first year – and I’m trying to do this whilst I’ve got a newborn baby – do you look after a newborn and do recruitment? It’s very difficult to manage.’

Charlotte continued: ‘Penelope has got everything she needs don’t get me wrong, she’s got nice clothes, we’re booked into baby massage, she’s learning to swim, but that’s because I put her first. I go without so she can have these things.

‘If someone else were to chip in, what else could I provide for her? What else could I do? Be a mum who’s present instead of a mum that’s working every hour and is exhausted all the time because she’s trying to make ends meet.’

Charlotte – who recently moved back in with her parents – went on: ‘All my friends and family break their backs to offer us support.

‘Whether it’s been staying with my parents while I save to buy a property, or them paying bills at some point – honestly, it’s been that tough.

‘Or friends taking her off my hands for the day so I can go to client meetings because I can’t afford childcare.’

Charlotte found fame on season two of The Traitors, which was won by Harry Clark who pocketed £95,150, and then introduced Charlotte to Conor at the show's wrap party

It came after Conor broke a month-long social media silence in December to claim a previously undisclosed battle with anxiety was the cause for his sudden silence.

The singer begged Instagram followers for advice as he weighed up the possibility of using prescribed medication to alleviate his symptoms.

The following day, Charlotte appeared to take a dig at Conor as she used her social media to share a photo of a sertraline box, writing: ‘100mg for the last year, going strong.’

Sertraline – also sold under the name Zoloft – is a commonly prescribed anti-depressant that can also be used to treat anxiety disorders.

Speaking about the impact her fallout with Conor has had on her mental health, Charlotte revealed: ‘It’s made me feel worthless and it took a lot to build myself back up.

‘I was asked to do projects and brand deals but I didn’t have it in me to do that so he’s lost me money as well! I’m also paying for therapy – another added cost.

‘It feels like he cost me my life but I’m rebuilding it and with a really good purpose and focus. I really want to be an advocate for women that are being treated unfairly and for kids that are not being loved or looked after.’

Charlotte found fame on season two of The Traitors – which was won by Harry Clark – who introduced Charlotte to Conor at the show’s wrap party.

Harry is dating Conor’s sister Anna Maynard, and was previously said to ‘not be taking sides’ in their row.

Yet Charlotte has told how Harry abruptly stopped talking to her following her pregnancy news and even left The Traitors’ cast Whatsapp group.

‘I’m so angry at Harry because why the hell did you set me up with this absolute scum?’ she fumed. ‘But nevertheless, I have got the most gorgeous daughter out of it.’

Harry walked away with the prize fund of £95,150 after successfully tricking his fellow contestants into thinking that he was Faithful, when he was in fact, a Traitor.
