Charlotte Chilton, star of The Traitors, has continued to insist that Conor Maynard is the father of her baby. It comes after two DNA tests said he was not the father, and after the musician took to social media to blast the TV personality and suggest that another Traitors star is the true father.
Charlotte gave birth to Penelope almost two years ago. Conor insisted that he wasn’t his father, while she claimed otherwise. Conor and Charlotte engaged in a heated argument, which involved taking a DNA test that revealed he was not the father and then taking another with the same result at Charlotte’s request.
Conor Maynard is the only person who can be my daughter’s father, Charlotte said in a recent interview when she broke down in tears.

Conor then appeared to mock Charlotte’s interview, by posting a video in which he said: “Here’s an invisible tissue for your invisible tears.” He captioned the video with: “My response to the most recent news…” He then played a new song, in which he tells the subject of the song to “please shut up”.
Later, he claimed once more that another Traitors star may be Penelope’s father, which she claimed is impossible because they didn’t get together.
Conor is the “only person” her daughter could have been, according to Charlotte, who she “categorically knows.” She continued to explain the DNA tests by stating that she had conducted extensive research and that she had suggested a medical complication called “chimerism” was to blame.

Actress and model Nicola Peltz has gushed over her own family as she issued another snub to her in-laws following her husband Brooklyn’s dad David’s knighthood

Nicola Peltz has issued another blow to her famous in-laws as she continues to distance herself from her husband Brooklyn’s family. The actress and Brooklyn were once tight knit with the Beckham clan, having attended countless family events and public appearances together.
However, rumours of a rift swirled earlier this year when Brooklyn and Nicola skipped his dad David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations. They have not been seen with David and Victoria since Christmas last year and have stopped interacting with each other on social media.
In a tough blow for the Beckhams, Brooklyn and Nicola renewed their vows this summer with just her family present. Now, the couple have dealt another swipe as they failed to celebrate David’s long awaited knighthood. The football icon was officially made a Sir by King Charles on Tuesday in a ceremony at Windsor Castle. He celebrated with Victoria as well as their children Romeo, Cruz and Harper.

Sadly, Brooklyn was the only one missing from the once in a lifetime moment, which has done little to quash the feud rumours. Hours after David’s celebration, Nicola returned to social media where she gushed over her own family, but offered no congratulations over the honour.
She shared a photo of a bunch of flowers sent to her by her sister Brittany. Alongside the post, Nicola said: “Omg @brittanyleahpeltz thank you so so so much these are breathtaking.”
Brooklyn has also failed to acknowledge his dad’s achievement on social media, while brothers Romeo and Cruz shared their own sweet tributes. Model Romeo shared photos from the big day as he wrote: “No one deserves this more than you, love you so much xxx. Congrats Sir dad @davidbeckham.”
Reports have claimed Nicola is still ‘not ready’ to make peace with her in-laws, despite David attempting to reach out to her and Brooklyn since June. Victoria is also said to be trying to make peace with her son and his wife.
However, all attempts at a truce have fallen flat so far. “Nicola’s not ready to make nice,” the source revealed. It has been claimed the fallout first stemmed from Nicola and Brooklyn’s 2022 wedding.
Nicola allegedly refused to wear a wedding gown designed by her mother-in-law Victoria. The actress-model told Variety in 2022 that she wanted Victoria to design her bridal gown, but months before her big day, Victoria realised ‘her atelier couldn’t do it.’
She decided to walk down the aisle in a Valentino couture dress instead. “She didn’t say you can’t wear it; I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it. That’s where it started, and then they ran with that,” Nicola said of the feud origin.
Brooklyn has continued to stand by his wife amid the reports and issued a defiant message earlier this year. Posting a video of him and Nicola riding on a motorbike through Los Angeles, he gushed: “My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you’re the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby.”

Nikki Sanderson, the star of Hollyoaks, has praised her “fabulous” boyfriend for boosting her self-assurance as she poses in a bikini for the first time in 20 years.
The actress, 41, is famed for playing Maxine Minniver on the Channel 4 show from 2012 and featured in some major storylines, including domestic violence and miscarrying a baby.
In April 2025, Maxine departed the village in a taxi after making plans to escape the country alongside her daughter, Minnie.
Away from the small screen, Nikki is dating former Emmerdale star Anthony Quinlan, who played Peter Barton on the ITV soap between 2013 and 2020.
According to reports, the pair reportedly began to straddle each other in 2021, and it seems like they are on the verge of a strong relationship.
Speaking to Closer Magazine, Nikki paid a loving tribute to Anthony, crediting him for boosting her confidence and passion for fitness as she posed in a bikini.
She cited Anthony’s positive influence as evidenced by his dedication to nutrition and health, and how he has taught her a lot about strength training.
In her words, “Keeping fit was never really a priority in my twenties or thirties; now I’m training three times a week and can’t get enough of walking.”
Physically and mentally, it is “so underappreciated.” Even if it means circling my home to get the last 10,000 steps in, I aim for 10,000. The fact that my partner is very fit, of course, helps.
Anthony and Nikki have two careers, one of which is acting, Boxed Off, and Boxed Off, which he has developed with her to help her “get in the best shape.”
She continued, “Anthony really boosts my confidence and strengthens me in every way.”
We are incredibly happy, complement each other, make a good team, and like him, marvel. He simply makes me feel happy, secure, and loved.
Taking to Instagram, Nikki shared the stunning photo of herself dressed in a blue bikini, showing that she feels fit beyond 40.
She remarked, “My first bikini shoot in nearly 20 years, where I exclusively spoke with @closeronline about my health and fitness at age 41.”
One commentator wrote, “You look incredible! You look incredible! ” was quick to flood the comments section for the soap star’s fans and friends.
The ultimate goal is “Strong, happy, and healthy,” according to another statement, and you look wonderful.
Away from Hollyoaks, Nikki played the role of Candice Stowe in ITV’s Coronation Street between 1999 and 2005. A year later, she appeared in Holby City as Monica Southworth.

Billy Redden, with his distinctive haunted expression, became one of the most recognisable faces in Hollywood after starring in 1972 movie Deliverance, but his life went in a different direction

At 15, Billy Redden might have expected a career on the silver screen after appearing in Oscar-nominated movie Deliverance.
But despite being one of the most unmistakable faces in Hollywood for a brief period in the 1970s, his life went in a wholly different direction, a far cry from the bright lights of Tinsel Town.
Now 69, he’s unrecognisable after “struggling really hard to make ends meet”.
Deliverance, a disturbing thriller directed by Brit John Boorman, was a smash hit when it came out in 1972. It was nominated for three Oscars – Best Picture, Best Director and Best Editing.
Young Billy’s appearance in the film was brief, but arguably the most memorable.
He was hand-picked by Boorman, who was scouting local schoolchildren in Georgia, US, for the iconic Duelling Banjos scene. He wasn’t a trained actor nor could he play the banjo, but Boorman thought his haunted expression made him perfect for the role.
A musician hid behind him to create the illusion, but Billy’s awkward stare made him a movie star overnight. In the film, he played “backwoods mountain boy” Lonnie, who gets into a musical duel with a businessman on a canoe trip.
Deliverance raked in millions and became a timeless classic, but Billy saw little of the profits. Paid only a modest fee for his work, he returned to small-town life once the cameras stopped rolling.
Initially, he tried to capitalise on the fame and organised tourist trips down the Chattooga River, which was featured in the film. He later worked a string of jobs, including store associate at Walmart, dishwasher and cafe hand.
Billy also appeared in “banjo man” in a number of other movies, including Outrage: Born in Terror, Blue Collar TV, and Blastfighter, a 2003 motion picture.
Billy discussed his financial difficulties in the 2012 documentary, The Deliverance of Rabun County.
He stated to the producers, “I’d like to receive all the money I believed I’d make from this movie.” I wouldn’t currently be employed by Walmart. And I’m having a lot of trouble making ends meet.
He continued, “We’re not a bad people up here; we’re a loving people,” and defended the county’s reputation. A decent town is located in Rabun County. There isn’t much crime happening, and it’s actually peaceful. Basically, everyone and everyone get along.
Close friend Kip Ramey claims Billy has “mounting medical bills” and lacks social security support and has since retired for several years.
In 2023, he started a GoFundMe page to support the Hollywood legend and raised tens of thousands of dollars, the Spokesman.com reported.
TOWIE legend Amy Childs has revealed that her brother Will has been involved in a ‘major car accident’ but just grateful to have her family around her especially after such a hard year

TOWIE’s Amy Childs has revealed that her brother Will, who also appeared in the show, has been involved in a “major car accident” and been rushed to A&E. The long-running star, 35, was joined by her sibling earlier this year on the ITV2 reality show and took to her social media to reveal that he was lucky to be alive after a tragic incident took place.
Amy posted a picture onto her Instagram Story on Wednesday which showed her mother Julie standing behind Will, who was seated in a wheelchair fresh from his hospital dash.
She wrote: “Someone was looking over my brother. A major car accident, his car is a complete right off. Been in A&E but he is coming home. I love you so much Will Childs. We have definitely been thrown a lot of stuff our way this year. But we are all here to tell the tale, my family my everything.”

Will, who works on the family’s flower stall in Romford, joined The Only Way Is Essex at the end of the last series, more than a 15 years after his sister appeared in the very fist episode of the programme. Upon his casting, an insider told The Sun: “Over the last 15 years, TOWIE has always featured the cast’s family and friends. The cast and producers are happy that Amy’s brother has featured in the upcoming series.”
But Will has been known to fans of Amy ever since she shot to fame, and he has been an active presence on her social media over the years. The latest incident is yet another heartbreak for former Celebrity Big Brother star Amy, who is engaged to Billy Debosq, but told earlier this year of how her wedding had to be postponed because of her mother’s illness.
At the time, she said: “It’s been intensely stressful. None of us was expecting Mum to have a heart attack – it turned our world upside down.” Amy, Billy, their two-year-old twins Billy and Milly, and Amy’s children from previous relationships – Polly, nine, and Ritchie, eight – were enjoying a family holiday in Tenerife when Amy received the bombshell news.
“We got the awful phone call from my dad that Mum had a heart attack when we were out there, and we decided to fly home that same night. I was in shock. Mum was at home when it happened and suddenly got this excruciating pain in her chest. She was rushed to hospital in an ambulance and they said she’d had a severe heart attack.
“It was so frightening. She had a stent put in and was in hospital for six days. She’s now home but she’s being monitored daily and is on a lot of medication. It’s so tough for her – she sometimes struggles to walk upstairs.” Amy went on to tell OK! that the hardest part for her is that it’s difficult for her to spend as much time with her grandchildren because she needs to rest. It’s heartbreaking. She was only 59 – it happened just before her 60th birthday. We cancelled all her birthday celebrations, but we’re hoping to do something later in the year.
“We’ve all been worried sick. It’s been horrendous and just shows you never know what’s around the corner in life. My mum and I are inseparable, best friends. We call each other five times a day. She always jokes that she never cut the umbilical cord when it came to me, so it was just devastating.
Amy and Billy then made the heartbreaking decision to postpone their big day, which was booked for September at the stunning Cliveden House Hotel in Berkshire. At the time, she explained: “I’d already booked the florist, the entertainment, and I’d started looking at some gorgeous wedding dresses. But it all got too much, to be honest – so we decided to move it to next year.
“It’s upsetting, but I know we’ve made the right decision. Right now, we’re focused on looking after Mum. When we come back from filming TOWIE, we’ll start thinking about getting another date booked in. We want to have the most beautiful day so it’s worth waiting for.”
Amy,then shared that she has pushed the wedding back to next year despite initially having planned to have it in the autumn, but is convinced that it will be a ‘lovely’ day when it eventually happens. . She said: “The wedding’s gonna be lovely. I’ve organised nothing, not organised the venue, not organised my dress. So good luck to me next year getting married!
“We were supposed to get married this September but we’re doing it next year and I’m really excited, but I’ve got nothing organised!”
Amy previously claimed that she had ‘everything sorted’ for the big day, apart from the dress, and that it was all slightly set back when her mum was rushed to hospital following a heart attack so they had to wait until things were better.
She told OK! “We got everything sorted. The only thing I didn’t sort out was the dress. I was looking at designers – I had a stylist. In the end, my life was turned upside down with my mum and that was really tough.
“Mum is better. She needs a lot of rest. She had no symptoms before the heart attack and I think that is what has shocked her the most. At least she had my dad there.”
