SPENCER Matthews was crowned champion of E4's Five Star Hotel tonight - after his father was held on suspicion of historic rapes of a minor.
The ex-Made in Chelsea star was named Employee of the Season in the finale of the reality TV show, which challenged celebs to try their hands at running a resort.
But Spencer hasn't acknowledged his win on social media tonight, which was marred by the news that multi-millionaire hotel boss David Matthews, 74, was in court on Thursday.
Mr Matthews strenuously denies all the allegations.
The pensioner was arrested by cops from France’s child protection unit at Paris Orly Airport on Tuesday over two historic rape allegations.
After 48 hours in custody Mr Matthews — dad to Kate Middleton's sister Pippa’s husband James, 42, and Five Star Hotel star Spencer, 29 — then appeared at the city’s Palais de Justice on Thursday and was later questioned over the alleged rape of minor.
It was alleged to have have happened on the exclusive French island of St Barts — where he owns a £5,000-a-night hotel.
He has lived with wife Jane on the Caribbean retreat for more than 20 years.
Spencer is engaged to model Vogue Williams and is to become a dad father,
Five Star Hotel was filmed on a Greek island last year following six reality stars running a resort.
They battled it out to win employee of the season after being rated by their guests.
