The Traitors star Jonny Holloway urges followers to ‘avoid manipulative, lying women’ and insists he ‘will never lie for someone’ amid tangled paternity row with former friend Charlotte Chilton

by

Jonny Holloway, known from the show The Traitors, has warned people to steer clear of dishonest and manipulative women. He says he’ll never lie for anyone, especially after getting caught up in the drama surrounding Charlotte Chilton‘s child’s father.

As a longtime follower of this story, I’m completely stunned by the latest developments! It seems like there’s serious doubt about who Penelope’s father really is. Originally, Chilton claimed Conor Maynard was the father after a brief encounter, but now, after two paternity tests, people are suggesting it might actually be the former soldier! It’s a huge twist and I’m eager to see how this unfolds.

Maynard, who has consistently maintained he isn’t the child’s father, has now accused Holloway – his co-star from the first UK season of The Traitors – of being the biological father.

Holloway, who already has two children with his former wife Lauren Ward, recently criticized Chilton in a brief video posted to Instagram on Thursday.

The former soldier shared his New Year’s resolutions, stating he would steer clear of trouble, avoid dishonest people, and ensure he always had a solid argument.

You know, I always admire people who can handle any situation with grace and humor. I recently saw something truly remarkable – a man named Holloway, after finishing a point, playfully drew attention to his leg. It turned out he’d lost it below the knee in Afghanistan, ambushed while serving his country. It was a powerful moment, showing how he’s turned a deeply challenging experience into something he can acknowledge with a smile.

He shared in the video’s caption: ‘It sometimes feels like my life isn’t real, but I can honestly say I’m being as genuine as possible. I refuse to lie for anyone.’

Interestingly, Holloway chose to include a clip from Conor Maynard’s new song, “Cherry On Top,” in his post. The song’s lyrics directly reference Maynard’s complicated situation regarding the parentage of his child with Chilton.

Even though two paternity tests suggested Maynard wasn’t the father of Chilton’s daughter, Chilton continues to insist she didn’t have a relationship with Holloway. She believes the singer was seeing someone else when she became pregnant.

In a recent interview with the Daily Mail, the former soldier admitted to having intimate relations with a fellow contestant on the show Traitors. However, he also stated that he was unable to follow through due to excessive alcohol consumption.

He stated, ‘If I were the father, I would gladly raise that child as my own.’ He explained that the encounter happened during a night of heavy drinking.

I was very drunk then. I’ve repeatedly requested a DNA test, but no one has responded.

I was raised with strong values and a real sense of discipline, thanks to my time in the military. It’s incredibly important to me to be a good father, and I always strive to treat everyone with respect. That’s just who I am – a man who believes in doing the right thing and being there for my kids.

Holloway is now seeking a DNA test to confirm his story and prove he isn’t the father 

In a recent video for his Instagram followers, he acknowledged that the timeline didn’t quite make sense, saying, ‘I know the dates don’t add up.’

‘The person who pulled me into this has changed some details and it insinuates that I’m the father.

Look, I’m telling you, there’s no way I’m the dad. I’ve said it before, but the timing just doesn’t work. And honestly? I was completely wasted at the time, I barely remember anything. It just…it couldn’t be me.

‘”He” didn’t want it to happen… obviously that’s not something I really want to talk about.’

He explained that his name and his children, including Penelope, have been publicly connected to this situation.

I need a DNA test to prove I’m not involved. I know this whole thing sounds crazy, but that’s all I can say about it.
