Doubts are being cast over Kyle Walker’s marriage to Annie Kilner, with the Manchester City defender in danger of losing part of his £27m fortune.
The England international has been fighting to save his relationship with long-time partner Kilner, but fathering two children with former Love Island star Lauryn Goodman has formed divides that may be beyond repair.
The Daily Mail claims that Walker’s marriage could be over, with Kilner struggling to forgive and forget her husband’s infidelity – with Goodman refusing to fade into the background after launching a child maintenance case and threatening to release more damaging stories.
THE GOSSIP
According to the Mail, divorce could cost Walker around half of his accumulated wealth – which is said to stand at around £27m ($35m). It is reported that Kilner will “almost certainly” get the £3.5m mansion that she shares with the couple’s four sons.
WHAT SOURCE SAID
Walker, who earns £160,000-a-week at City, has been funding Goodman and their two children. A source has told the Mail: “Everyone around Kyle knows just how much a divorce would cost him. So does he. And he’s fully aware that footballers have very short shelf-lives in earning terms. He is 34 now so, realistically, there are only about four more years left for him as a professional player and, after that, he will have to carve out a new career. If he splits from Annie, she would be entitled to half, and he would have six children to support between both women.”
WHAT NEXT?
Walker linked up with Goodman in 2019 during a temporary split with Kilner. It was announced in the winter of 2022 that he had fathered another child outside of wedlock, with the experienced full-back admitting to making “idiot choices”.
