Hat-P-41b

The candidate stellar companion was detected simultaneously with the planet discovery in 2012. A multiplicity survey in 2015 did confirm a dim stellar companion of later-K to early-M spectral class, with the probability of being a background star of 14%. By 2020, it was concluded the candidate companion star is probably gravitationally bound.
