According to Kyle Walker, he has never purchased customized football uniforms for the two young kids he has with Lauryn Goodman.
The 34-year-old Manchester City star, Riaan, 7, Reign, 5, and five-month-old Rezon are all shared by him and his spouse, Annie Kilner. Along with Kairo, 4, and Kinara, 13, months old, he also has Kairo from an affair with Lauryn.
When it was revealed that he had fathered two children with the model, he was enmeshed in a paternity scandal and a legal battle.
Lauryn dressed her son Kairo and daughter Kinara in complete football uniforms when England played in the Euros this summer, while the boys Kyle and Annie share were also spotted at the games wearing his No. 2 shirt.
She had earlier stated that the football player had bought Kairo and Kinara their jerseys, but a source has since told MailOnline that Lauryn had the shirts personalized instead of him.
“Kyle bought one plain kit for Kairo, and then Lauryn went out and bought another for Kinara,” they said in their explanation.
She got Daddy’s number and her own personalization put on them both. Kyle has nothing to do with that element.
A representative of Lauryn has been approached by MailOnline for comment.
Lauryn faced backlash for her decision to take Kairo to see his father Kyle perform in Germany.
The influencer was seen holding Kairo, who was waving an England flag, in her arms as she arrived at the Deutsche Bank Park stadium in Frankfurt, where England was playing Denmark in June.
Lauryn was commended by some social media users for attending the game, while others said she should have “stayed away.”
Annie attended all England matches, but it seems that she made a pledge ‘not to play happy families’ with her husband in Germany after Kyle acknowledged he was Kinara’s father.
Lauryn sat with her grandfather in a separate stand, while Annie joined other WAGs in supporting her husband.
In an exclusive interview with the Mail, Lauryn stated, “I can’t tell you how excited he was.” “He was bouncing around.”
She disclosed that her primary reason for traveling to Frankfurt was to fulfill a pledge Kyle had made to their kid back in 2022, while she was secretly expecting their second child and he was competing in the Qatar World Cup.
‘Kyle is getting older, and he understood there might not be any more opportunities, so he informed him on a FaceTime chat that he would make sure he was at the next event.
“I had no choice but to take Kairo to the Euros,” Lauryn declared. “I could not possibly break the pledge that Kyle made to his son.” I wanted Kairo to have a lasting memory of this as it might have been his last chance.
“We don’t come here to win over people.” It is all about Kairo, and what will fulfill him and be best for him.
“I refuse to be used as a prop, harassed, or made to feel like a bad guy.” My children have always been and will always be my top priority. Fortunately, I’m a capable mother and lady for them.
While Lauryn raised her son hundreds of miles away in Brighton, Kyle and Annie remained together in Cheshire despite his adultery and the birth of their son Kairo.
Then, it was discovered in December of last year that Lauryn’s daughter from last summer was also Kyle’s.
After Annie kicked Kyle out of their Prestbury, Cheshire, family home, he relocated into an apartment nearby.
But following Annie’s fourth son’s birth in April, they started to rebuild their marriage—apparently with the stipulation that Kyle stop communicating with Lauryn and their kids.
As part of Kyle’s maintenance obligations, Lauryn purchased a £2.4 million home in Hove, East Sussex, for her children, raising them as a single mother.
