Film director Matthew Vaughn this week denied rumors that he is the father of actress January Jones’s baby, said the New York Post. Jones, 33, who announced she was pregnant in April, has yet to reveal the father’s identity. The website EOnline.com last week ran a story stating that Vaughn, who is married to model Claudia Schiffer, had a “very close relationship” with the Mad Men star on the set of the new X-Men film. Through his lawyer, Vaughn called the paternity suggestion an “absolute lie.”
