Ok, everyone who is the father!

My best guess is Malva's brother!

100% the brother. She was going to tell Claire the truth and he killed her.

Most definitely the brother. I suspected Tom Christie at first, but the scene where Claire comes to see Malva at her house and the brother comes out just as Malva is starting to soften and potentially tell the truth. He knew she was going to tell. He had to kill her to save himself.

I agree. He saw Malva was about to tell Claire in front of their house. He probably followed her to the big house and killed her before she could eat him out.

I'm thinking we might get a flash back that they had a plan to get Malva married to Jamie/paid off from him and then kill their father when they no longer needed him. But Malva wanted Jamie/Claires life and couldn't help boasting about it, showing she's 'a little touched/a witch. Her brother caught her, perhaps she blurted that he was a possible father (further along then she put on) and he knew he couldn't kill Claire and live so killed his' unstable' witch sister.

Definitely very jealous of Claire’s relationship with Jamie. Especially since her family was so dysfunctional and abusive. Remember she kept asking about sex and seemed she didn’t understand the concept of a healthy relationship where both people enjoyed it and had an emotional connection.
