Conor Maynard says he isn't the father of The Traitors star's baby after ‘taking paternity test'

Yahoo14-03-2025

Conor Maynard has said he is not the father of The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton's baby after 'taking a paternity test'.
Chilton, 32, shocked fans last year when she announced Maynard, also 32, was the father of her 'miracle' baby, Penelope. However, the Can't Say No singer has constantly denied being the child's father.
Taking to Instagram today, Maynard told his fans that DNA results have now confirmed this to be true.
He said in a statement: '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.
'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.'
Chilton - a recruitment manager from Warwickshire - found fame on Season 2 of The Traitors, which was won by Harry Clark, who introduced the pair at the show's wrap party.
She had previously endured years of failed IVF rounds with her estranged wife Laura in a bid to have a child and believed that she was infertile before falling pregnant naturally with Maynard.
Chilton has openly spoken about Conor's absence from their lives, stating during her pregnancy announcement: "She [Penelope] is not a dirty secret, and I won't be silenced."
Last year, Maynard broke social media silence to open up about his mental health.
He took to Instagram Stories to beg his online followers for their advice about whether or not he should use prescribed medication to help with 'anxiety'.
The popstar penned: 'Has anyone here ever been prescribed Diazepam, but their anxiety is so bad that they're literally too anxious to actually take it?
'Please reach out if you've ever been in this position. Can't believe I'm even posting this, but at this point, I'm not sure what else to do.'
Representatives for Charlotte Chilton have been contacted by the Evening Standard.

Is Paradise season 2 releasing in June 2025? Everything we know so far

By Aman Shukla Published on June 9, 2025, 17:30 IST Last updated June 9, 2025, 11:45 IST Hulu's hit dystopian thriller Paradise has fans eagerly awaiting news about its second season. With its gripping plot and stellar cast, including Sterling K. Brown, Julianne Nicholson, and James Marsden, the show has captured widespread attention. But is Paradise Season 2 releasing in June 2025? Here's everything we know so far. Paradise Season 2 Renewal Status Hulu officially renewed Paradise for a second season on February 20, 2025, before the first season's finale aired on March 4, 2025. The announcement came via the show's Instagram account, with Sterling K. Brown sharing the exciting news in a video responding to fans clamoring for more episodes. Creator Dan Fogelman also celebrated the renewal on X, thanking fans for their enthusiasm and theorizing about the show's twists. With the renewal confirmed early, production moved quickly, ensuring fans won't face a long wait for the next chapter. Is Paradise Season 2 Releasing in June 2025? As of June 9, 2025, Hulu has not confirmed a specific premiere date for Paradise Season 2, and a June 2025 release is highly unlikely. Series creator Dan Fogelman has stated that production began in April 2025, with scripts already written. In interviews with Deadline and Variety , Fogelman expressed frustration with long gaps between seasons and aims to release Season 2 in early 2026, potentially aligning with the January 2025 premiere window of Season 1. While some sources speculate a possible early 2026 debut, no official confirmation points to June 2025. Fans should expect new episodes between January and summer 2026, depending on production timelines. What Will Paradise Season 2 Be About? Paradise Season 2 will pick up where the Season 1 finale, 'The Man Who Kept the Secrets,' left off. The first season revealed that Paradise is a city-sized underground bunker in Colorado, housing survivors three years after a catastrophic climate event. The finale resolved the mystery of President Cal Bradford's murder, identifying Trent (Ian Merrigan), a former construction leader, as the killer seeking justice for workers poisoned during the bunker's creation. It also disclosed that 55 million Americans, including Xavier's wife Teri, survived the apocalypse outside the bunker, a secret kept by Sinatra to maintain control.
