Traitors star hits out after being accused of fathering Charlotte Chilton’s baby in new Conor Maynard response

The Traitors paternity saga has taken another dramatic twist - as another former star has now been accused of fathering Charlotte Chilton's child.

The mum, 34, was a contestant in season two of the hit BBC show and has long claimed that musician Conor Maynard is her daughter Penelope's biological dad.

The little girl was born in October last year and according to Chilton, she is the result of a sexual encounter she had with the 'Vegas Girl' singer at the wrap party for The Traitors.

However, Maynard - and two DNA tests - have said otherwise.

Despite science supporting his denials about fathering the baby, Chilton has continued to claim that 'the only person who can be my daughter’s father is Conor Maynard'.

She has insisted she had not been intimate with anyone else during the time that Penelope was conceived - and has even suggested there might be a 'strange genetic' explanation behind why DNA tests don't support this theory.

Maynard - who even dropped a 'Billie Jean'-style diss track about the scandal - appears to have now ran out of patience.

In his latest social media post, he responded to Chilton's latest claim by instead pointing the finger at another star who appeared on The Traitors, who he suspects could be Penelope's real father.

Maynard shared a clip explaining that he received a message from the former wife of Jonny Holloway, who was on the competition series at the same time as Chilton.

It read: "Hi Connor, I'm not sure you're going to see this message. But my ex husband is Jonny Holloway, one of the Traitors. He told me he slept with Charlotte around the same time as yourself/she fell pregnant."

The singer, 32, said he had sought the woman's permission before sharing the news publicly, before continuing: "I don't and have never wanted to expose and air out someone's private matters.

"But surely you guys understand there comes a point when I have to defend myself. There is a high likelihood that Penelope is someone else's daughter.

Maynard went on: "I'm not sat here saying, 'There it is, I've cracked it, Jonny is clearly the father!' I'm not saying that. But what I am saying is that there is other people who could be Penelope's father.

"And while it is not 100 percent Jonny, it is 100 percent not me."

As we warned, it's quite the update.

Holloway, who hails from Luton, starred on The Traitors as a Faithful last year before being banished in the fifth episode.

In an Instagram video shared earlier today (4 November), he responded to the claims made by Maynard - while in the back of a moving van which was brimming with his belongings.

"Oh hello, it’s Jonny Holloway," the TV star began.

"Imagine waking up - when you’re in the middle of moving house from a separation that happened before The Traitors started filming - to see that your ex-wife is insinuating you’re cheating on her."

Chilton has not yet publicly addressed Maynard's allegations about Holloway.

LADbible has contacted both Chilton and Holloway for comment.
