Conor Maynard responds to a participant of Traitors in a new clip: a song about the DNA test scandal.

Conor Maynard reacts to the drama with fatherhood and Charlotte Chilton

According to The Sun: Pop star Conor Maynard has harshly reacted to the scandal with Traitors contestant Charlotte Chilton, as their dispute over fatherhood continues.

The 32-year-old singer, who has been at the center of this conflict for over a year, seems to mock 34-year-old Charlotte in a new teaser for his upcoming track 'Cherry on Top'.

In the video Conor posted on social media, he staged a parody of a press conference, surrounded by journalists with funny newspaper names such as Traitor Times, Not My Sun, and The Legal Guardian — hinting at Charlotte and her publicity regarding fatherhood.

Fake journalists ask Conor awkward questions, many of which relate to his dispute with Charlotte. One query reads:

“Conor, is it true that you still can’t say no to women?”

This is a nod to his 2012 hit 'Can’t Say No' and recent child drama.

Moreover, one journalist asks:

“Conor, how much did you pay to change your DNA?”

This is also a reference to Charlotte's claims that the paternity test results were false.

The discussion continues, as one journalist jokes:

“Can you spell the word 'fertility'?”

Another adds:

“Well, the child looks exactly like you.”

In conclusion, a journalist named Billy Jean from One Night Standard asks:

“Conor, you’ve been in the center of a lot of drama and accusations over the past year and a half. Do you have anything to say in response?”

Conor takes a deep breath and looks into the camera before the teaser for 'Cherry on Top' ends, confirming the release of the track on September 26.

This ironic mockery comes after a long saga of fatherhood tests that concluded earlier this year.

A test in early 2025 confirmed that Conor is not the father of Charlotte's daughter, Penelope, despite her claims.

The dramatic twist in this story occurred when Charlotte demanded a retest for paternity, claiming that “an unknown man was present” while Conor was giving his initial DNA sample.

But, unfortunately for Charlotte, the new results confirmed once again that the singer is not the father.

Conor appeared on ITV's This Morning in May, where he shared that he is experiencing one of the hardest years of his life.

He also spoke about the decline of his mental health, telling This Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Paddy McGuinness:

“It has been hard to stay silent.”

Conor explained why he chose to voice his position now, emphasizing:

“Realistically, one of the main reasons is that now is the right time.”

He added:

“As you said, last year was really tough, and mental health has always been a serious issue in my life.”
