‘Pathological narcissist’
A very un-WAG-like insult from soccer star’s former lover after his self-serving interview
SOCIAL media influencer Lauryn Goodman has accused Manchester City soccer star Kyle Walker of being a ‘pathological narcissist’ after he played down their affair.
She claims to have had a ‘longstanding, intimate, loving and affectionate relationship’ with the England international defender.
The row follows an apology from Walker to his wife Annie Kilner, 30, after he fathered a second child with 33-year-old Ms Goodman.
Walker, 33, suggested he and Ms Goodman ‘were never in a relationship’ and that the two children they have together were conceived during one-night stands.
But a spokesman for Ms Goodman said ‘she is disappointed by his deluded version of events – which is dramatically different to her own recollection of their long-standing, intimate’ relationship.
The spokesman added: ‘She is confused as to how he has seemingly forgotten their many highly personal conversations and memories made with their children as a family.
‘The story he is putting out to the public is not the reality.’
The soccer star is currently living alone while Ms Kilner, pregnant with their fourth child, looks after their three children Riaan, Roman and Reign. He issued an apology to his wife, admitting that ‘what I’ve done is horrible’. He told The Sun: ‘I take full responsibility. I made idiot choices and idiot decisions.’
Walker spoke of his pain at not being able to see his three children with Ms Kilner. He also recalled the conversation with his wife about the first child he had with Ms Goodman, Kairo, in 2020.
Calling her from Manchester City’s training ground, Walker said: ‘I had a one-night stand with someone.’ After naming Ms Goodman, he added: ‘She says she’s pregnant and it’s mine.’
Ms Kilner kicked him out but later took him back for the sake of the children, saying: ‘How can I hate the man my kids love so much?’
But in early 2022, Walker saw Ms Goodman in London and claims they had a second one-night stand, leading to the birth of a daughter and to his wife sparking an official separation. He admits Ms Goodman’s second pregnancy was ‘the straw that broke the camel’s back’ in his marriage with Ms Kilner.
A spokesman for Walker said: ‘Kyle has spoken fully and honestly about his mistakes and the true situation involving Lauryn. He has instructed lawyers and will not be making any further comment on the wild and untrue stories she is promoting in search of publicity and financial gain.’
