Lauryn Goodman reveals hopes to 'build bridges' with Kyle Walker and 'do right by all the children' as she reflects on her tough year

1 week ago 6

Lauryn Goodman has shared her hopes to 'build bridges' with Kyle Walker and 'do right by all the children' in a new interview on Tuesday. 

The TV personality, 33, spoke candidly about her 'very tough' year after amid the paternity scandal and public scrutiny which followed.

The footballer, 34, who shares four children with his wife Annie Kilner, had an affair with Lauryn, and fathered a son, Kairo, four, and daughter, Kinara, 16-months. 

Reflecting on the year, in an interview with Closer, Lauryn explained:  'I’m hopeful their dad will come back to them and continue to build his relationship with them. I hope for Kyle’s sake it is sooner rather than later, because Kairo is starting to understand now. 

'I always say that Daddy is busy playing football, but he’s not believing my excuses anymore.'

'I hope we can all just move forward and do what’s right by all the children. I have faith and hope that bridges will be built for the sake of Kairo and Kinara, because at the end of the day, we share two wonderful children together and life is just too short.'

Meanwhile, mother-of-four Annie instructed lawyers last month to begin legal proceedings as she prepares to fight for half of the Manchester City defender's £27million fortune. 

Annie has said she 'just can't forgive him for what he's done to her'.

The couple separated last December after Kyle was revealed to have fathered his second child with Lauryn, who texted Annie to reveal the news.

The documents were served on him 10 days ago, and MailOnline understands Kyle had moved back into their family home in Cheshire - but not into Annie's bed.

The footballer, who earns an estimated £175,000 a week, is said to have been sleeping separately from Annie in a room on the third floor of the house.

The couple separated last December after Walker was revealed to have fathered a second child with model Lauryn, who texted Annie to reveal the news.

As their tumultuous relationship hit a new low, a source told MailOnline: 'Things are as bad between them as they have ever been. It wasn't like a normal marriage.

'They have barely been speaking to each other. She is divorcing Kyle because she just can't forgive him for what he's done to her. She can't get over it. She has tried.'

Reflecting on the year, in an interview with Closer, Lauryn explained: 'I’m hopeful their dad will come back to them and continue to build his relationship with them' 

They added: 'Kyle seems to have accepted it's over. He's been happier in the last week or so. Like the weight of the world's been lifted from his shoulders.'

Childhood sweethearts Kyle and Annie met in Sheffield as teenagers but the footballer has been embroiled in a series of sex scandals over the years.

It comes as the ongoing war and paternity scandal shows no sign of stopping, with Lauryn continuing to speak about it on her podcast.

Earlier this month, she reacted to accusations by fans commenting on Annie's social media that she 'brainwashes' the children she shares with Walker.

Speaking on her Yours Sincerely podcast, Lauryn revealed that a fan had told her that Annie had been 'liking' negative comments about Lauryn and her children - despite her also routinely liking many of her followers' comments.

She told co-host Lisa Andrews: 'I did get a message today saying that comments are being liked on her page about me apparently brainwashing my children. Can we touch on that?

'Come off it, what am I brainwashing my child about?'

Turning to Lisa, she asked: 'Do I ever... You're here, and you're around me so much. I don't bring up his dad [Kyle] to him [Kairo], do I?

Meanwhile, mother-of-four Annie instructed lawyers last month to begin legal proceedings as she prepares to fight for half of the Manchester City defender's £27million fortune 

As Lisa confirmed that Lauryn 'never' mentions her ex in front of her son, the Celebs Go Dating star continued: ' We literally get on with our lives. We are a little family unit.

'It's just crazy to me that people think I'm just sat there trying to get him to rehearse stuff or whatever. What good would that do my child? I'm all about how my child is going to feel in the future.

'These are things his dad is going to have to deal with in the future because Kairo and Kinara will 100% want to ask him some questions.

'And unfortunately, I don't think the answers he'll give will be good enough because they'll be able to see through him and that's my personal opinion.'

A source told MailOnline at the time: 'Annie gets thousands of comments and likes of overwhelming support and she often goes through and likes some of them to show fans she appreciates their messages.

'But both Annie and Kyle would never want to bring children into what Lauren has made a public circus with her weekly podcast. Annie and Kyle are trying to get on with their lives and wish that Lauryn would do the same.'
