Lauryn Goodman, 33, has candidly spoken about the relationship that footballer Kyle Walker, 34, has with their eldest child. The couple are parents to son Kairo, four, born in 2020, and daughter Kinara, one, who arrived in 2023.
Fans were taken aback by the news of Kyle's children, given that the Manchester City defender has been with Annie Kilner since 2010, married her in 2022, and is now amidst divorce proceedings. Kyle and Annie share four children together, and there's speculation that he's prioritising his children with Annie, seemingly 'neglecting' Kairo and Kinara.
"I'm hopeful their dad will come back to them and continue to build his relationship with them," Lauryn revealed to Closer in a recent interview, during which she discussed her family situation. She expressed concern that time might be running out for Kyle to bond with his children, particularly Kairo—affectionately called Kai—who is "starting to understand now."

The reality TV personality from 'Celebs Go Dating' shared: "He asks for his daddy and he's starting to realise maybe it's his choice... I always say that Daddy is busy playing football, but he's not believing my excuses anymore."
Lauryn voiced her hope that everyone involved can "move forward and do what's right for all the children," maintaining "faith" that the best outcome for her kids will prevail, reports [the Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/lauryn-goodman-shares-heartbreaking-update-34290886).
Amidst the tension of a complex love triangle, Lauryn has expressed her desire for reconciliation for the sake of the children involved. However, she recently insinuated that issues remain with Annie by sharing an incident on the podcast 'Yours Sincerely'.
The Mirror attempted to reach Annie's representatives for a statement.
