Annie Kilner is pregnant! Footballer Kyle Walker to welcome his seventh child as wife reveals she is expecting their fifth baby – after he fathered two with lover Lauryn Goodman

We’ve learned that Kyle Walker and his wife, Annie Kilner, are expecting their fifth child together.

The 33-year-old wife of a Burnley defender, who already has four sons with him, is expecting another baby in June. She shared the surprising news with loved ones over the Christmas holidays.

The couple’s announcement that they are expecting a baby strongly suggests they’ve overcome recent difficulties in their marriage. They were close to divorce after Walker had affairs with Lauryn Goodman.

Annie’s pregnancy will likely be very upsetting for Lauryn, as Lauryn shares two children with the former Manchester City and AC Milan player.

Annie and Kyle have shared with their sons – Roman, 11, Riaan, 7, Reign, 5, and Rezon, 1 – that they’re expecting another baby in the summer. The new baby will also have a name starting with the letter R, though they haven’t decided on the final name yet.

According to a source speaking with the Daily Mail, Annie really wanted a baby, hoping it would bring their family closer and strengthen her marriage.

According to a source, Kyle returned from Italy last year, and Annie has since expressed her desire to have another child, wanting a sibling for their sons.

‘She believes that a baby help put all their troubles behind them.

Everyone was surprised by the news, especially considering they were still working through some challenges in their relationship. While a new baby can sometimes strain a marriage, all their loved ones are thrilled and are offering Annie all the support they can.

According to a source, Annie and Kyle’s four sons are thrilled about the arrival of their new brother or sister and have been discussing it frequently.

Kyle and Annie, who were childhood sweethearts, got married in 2021. However, their relationship began to fall apart in January 2024 when it was discovered that Kyle had a daughter, Kinara, with another woman, Lauryn.

On December 26, 2023, an influencer unexpectedly told Annie she was pregnant with her second child. The influencer’s husband already shares a five-year-old son, Kairo, with Annie, having fathered him during a short separation they had previously.

Kyle’s actions led to him being asked to leave the home he shared with Annie. Shortly after, she filed for divorce, ending their marriage.

Annie is much happier during this pregnancy than she was with her first, Rezon. Last time, she was dealing with the shock of discovering Kyle had a child with another woman, Lauryn, which caused her a great deal of stress.

This time feels completely different for Annie. She and Kyle have worked hard to repair their relationship and rebuild trust, and she sees a new baby as a chance for a fresh beginning for their whole family.

Last year, Walker went to Italy to play for AC Milan, hoping to distance himself from the ongoing public attention around his personal life with Lauryn.

Kyle played for AC Milan, one of Italy’s biggest clubs, but didn’t earn a long-term contract. He then returned to England to play for Burnley, a team that had just been promoted to the Premier League.

Honestly, seeing Kyle back playing up North was amazing, not just for the team, but for him. It let him come home, back to our beautiful Cheshire mansion with Annie and the boys. You could just feel the spark between him and Annie reignite – it was like everything was finally falling back into place. It was so good to see them reconnect, truly. I’ve been following his career for years, and this felt like a huge step for their family!

It’s unclear whether Lauryn knows Annie is pregnant. Their falling out started after it was revealed that Walker had a child with another woman, an influencer.

Lauryn has been criticized for seemingly prolonging her disagreements with Annie and Karl by discussing them online. She even announced plans to move to Italy, claiming it was to be nearer the children’s father, which some believe was to maintain public attention on the situation.

According to a source, Annie and the people she’s closest to are preparing for Lauryn’s reaction to this situation.

Considering her past behavior, we’re worried she won’t react well and things could become difficult.

In 2024, Lauryn and Kyle went to court to decide on child support payments, and Lauryn did not win the case.

Judge Edward Hess strongly criticized her, accusing her of excessive greed. He stated she tried to exploit her partner, who earns approximately £160,000 weekly, treating him like an unlimited source of money and consistently threatening him to get her way.

She requested a £31,000 artificial lawn, £30,000 for air conditioning, a £70,000 car allowance every three years, a vehicle for her nanny, and £150,000 per year for child support.

The judge criticized Lauryn for a message she sent to Annie on Boxing Day, stating it was meant to upset Annie, the father’s wife, and it succeeded in doing so.

I don’t believe the mother’s claim that she sent the text message to try and build a positive relationship with the father’s other partner.
