The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton has been shopping for her baby girl amid her first pregnancy, shortly after confirming the celebrity identity of the little one’s father.

Earlier this week, the reality star, 32, who appeared in series 2 of Claudia Winkleman’s BBC game show, revealed to Metro.co.uk that pop star Conor Maynard, 31, is her unborn daughter’s dad.

It came after a powerful video on social media showed Charlotte in tears, saying she ‘won’t be silenced’ after being made to feel like a ‘dirty secret’ when Conor said he didn’t want to be part of the baby’s life.

What followed was an outpouring of support for Charlotte, who recently ended a ‘toxic relationship’ and conceived her baby – whom she will name Penelope – after meeting Conor at a Traitors wrap party.

Pictured with her mum this weekend, the self-proclaimed ‘single pringle’ headed to The Baby Show in Manchester.

This was the first time Charlotte has been seen publicly since sharing Conor’s identity and alleging that she was warned against speaking out due to potential bad PR.

Putting on a brave smile, the mum-to-be dressed in comfy attire of black leggings and a white flowing top, covering her bump.

She styled her brunette locks in curls and wore a red lip, smiling as she browsed for essentials ahead of her due date.

Cradling her belly as she walked, Charlotte was later also seen heading home with armfuls of goods.

Taking to Instagram, she then reposted an image from The Baby Show with the text: ‘Thank you for having me and treating me like a queen!!’

Alongside a beaming selfie with her mum, Charlotte added: ‘So nice to have a mum and daughter day today!!’

Speaking to us previously, Charlotte explained how she’s determined to ‘stand up for [herself]’.

Recounting events leading up to her pregnancy, Charlotte detailed her shock when the test was positive, as she has miscarried before and had struggles with IVF, hence why she didn’t inform Conor of the pregnancy right away.

After a few weeks, she contacted him and said he was ‘lovely’ in response.

However, she soon felt his tone change and conversations became more unpleasant.

After Conor – who now has a girlfriend – expressed that he wasn’t ready to be a dad, Charlotte gave him space and hoped he would change his mind. Alas, he did not.

‘The minute I started talking about co-parenting and being understanding of his work schedule, he obviously was a bit disappointed that I was doing that,’ she shared, adding that she sent him pictures of her 12-week scan.

‘I messaged, “Feel free to respond whenever you’re ready” as I was annoyed at that point.’

She then shared: ‘I’m doing this on my own. I don’t need him. I don’t need his money. I would only want him involved if he wanted to be… Ultimately, when she’s older, it’ll be her decision.’

Conor has not contacted Charlotte since she spoke out about him being the father of her child.

‘I don’t know whether it has got back to Conor, but I just wanted to get out there and to just, kind of, say this is not acceptable.’

Remaining positive, Charlotte said that ‘families come in all shapes and sizes.’

‘I love my step dad. One day, if I marry a man or a woman, they could be there for her. No matter what, she’ll be surrounded by love.

‘I didn’t plan this situation, but it is a miracle.’

Conor is also yet to post anything on social media or issue a statement addressing the claims.

He is the brother of Anna Maynard who is dating Harry Clarke (winner of The Traitors earlier this year), which is how he came to meet Charlotte originally.

Reps for Conor Maynard have been contacted for comment.
