Charlotte Chilton has has ruled out the possibility of one of her The Traitor’s co-stars being the father to her daughter. It’s claimed that she and a male co-star slept together after a party last year leading the man to believe he could be Penelope’s dad.

Charlotte had previously insisted that singer Conor Maynard was the father of her daughter after the pair had a one night stand following a wrap party for the show. Speaking previously, she claimed that the R U Crazy hitmaker had refused to have a relationship with her daughter.

But a male co-star is believed to be “burying his head in the sand” over the paternity of Penelope and hasn’t yet taken a DNA test but believes he could be the little girl’s father. On Wednesday, Charlotte said on social media she cannot address the situation surrounding Conor – who previously stated a DNA test ruled he wasn’t Penelope’s dad.

While an unnamed male co-star has reportedly expressed his concerns, sources close to Charlotte has flat out denied this and said it’s “not possible” for him to be the father. “A former contestant on the Traitors has told pals he and Charlotte slept with each other following a celebrity party in early 2024,” a source said.

Speaking to the MailOnline, they added of the anonymous male: “They both had a lot to drink and ended up spending the night together. Charlotte has said it’s not possible he could be the father but he’s admitted to feeling stressed over the situation. Still, no paternity test has been done.

“Right now, the feeling is that he is burying his head in the sand.” Charlotte, who was previously married to a woman, gave birth to her daughter Penelope in October last year – months after appearing on the show, which saw former army man Harry Clark bag a whopping six-figure cash prize.

Last month, Conor took to social media to share a bombshell statement following Charlotte’s claims that he’d fathered her daughter and refused to have a relationship with the pair. He said: “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.

“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.” Following Conor’s statement, Charlotte was said to be ‘suspicious’ over the results of the test.

Speaking to The Sun, a source close to Charlotte previously said: “Charlotte has always been adamant about who Penelope’s father is and her daughter is the spitting image of Conor. She is bitterly disappointed about the results and her legal team are looking into how they move forward to ensure Conor takes a second test.” They added that it had been an “exhausting fight” between the pair.

Meanwhile, Conor’s spokesperson rejected claims that the test could have been tampered with or provided false results. They said in a statement: “It is very difficult to understand how the location of the paternity test would have changed the results. To be clear, this test was conducted by a registered nurse in the presence of Charlotte’s legal representative.

“The results have clearly drawn a line under the matter, and we can only hope that Charlotte can find a way to move forward.” Meanwhile on Wednesday, Charlotte told fans: “A lot of people want me to address the comments regarding Conor. There will be a time and a place for this.

“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.”
