Kyle Walker living in 'apartment block' after being kicked out by wife following Lauryn Goodman affair

Kyle Walker is reportedly staying in Manchester City-owned accommodation after being kicked out by his wife Annie Kilner.

The England defender’s home life is in turmoil as the Premier League season approaches, following revelations he fathered a second child with his ex-mistress.

Walker, 34, has been involved in legal battles over child maintenance payments. He appeared in court last month where his former lover Lauryn Goodman was accused of making “greedy” demands.

The ongoing situation has apparently strained his marriage to Kilner. He’s been ousted from their Cheshire mansion once more, despite the couple being seen on holiday together recently.

The Sun has reported he is now staying in an apartment owned by Manchester City, who are beginning the new season with a game against Chelsea on Saturday. 

Walker and Kilner married in 2022 and have four children together.

The pair have been together for many years but briefly separated in 2019 when it was revealed he had fathered a child from a fling with 32-year-old Goodman. 

After they reconciled, it was revealed in January that Walker had fathered a second child with his then mistress after another affair. 

She sent a text to Kilner in December stating: “Hey it’s Lauryn, I just wanted to quickly tell you that Kyle is the father of our daughter.”

The model was accused of “insatiable greed” by a spokesman for Walker after the family court battle. 

During the hearing, Goodman claimed that Walker tried to meet her “in secret” at a hotel just days after their legal row. 

The court battle played out shortly after Walker returned from the Euros where he played for England. He had also been seen on holiday with Kilner, suggesting the relationship with his wife was back on. 

But on Friday, the Sun revealed otherwise.

A “source” is quoted as saying: “He’s been staying at the club-owned apartments because he's got nowhere else to go. He thought Annie would have him back after they shared family holidays, but she wouldn’t agree to it.”
