Was Mr. Rochester Adele’s father?

I’ve watched many versions of Jane Eyre and read the book, but it seems it was never confirmed that he was Adele’s father (unless I missed something). In this version, Adele and Mr. Rochester have almost the same hair and eye color, suggesting he could be her father. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? (Also, the little girl who plays Adele in this version is so adorable!).

In the book Rochester refuses to believe Adèle is his daughter because she does not resemble him and her mother was sleeping around. I think there is definitely a chance he's her father, but I guess that just like Rochester, we can never be sure about it.
