But the 32-year-old has kept the father's identity under wraps - until now.
In an emotional post on social media, she claimed the British singer was Penelope's birth father and named him.
Charlotte continued: "I've really toyed with whether this is the right thing to do or not.
"I've sort of hidden a lot of things in protection of somebody else through this process.

"I decided that the best thing is to always be open and honest. Essentially, I have not named the father in protection of him."
She added: "I'm prepared to do this alone, but I'm not prepared to have my daughter have to grow up and not be able to say who her father is, or should I say, birth father, or hide it from her.
"She deserves to know where she comes from. I'm not a secret, she's not a dirty secret. I won't be treated like one anymore, I won't be silenced."
She added: "Conor is his name. I met him after The Traitors wrap party and we started seeing each other and Penelope arrived in my tummy!"
