Kyle Walker’s Marriage in Crisis as Wife Demands £15 Million After Affair Scandal
The relationship between Manchester City footballer Kyle Walker and his wife, Annie Kilner, is hanging by a thread as Kilner reportedly demands £15 million to even consider reconciling. Insiders have claimed the 32-year-old is seeking around half of Walker’s £27 million fortune, following his high-profile affair with influencer Lauryn Goodman.
Walker, who shares four children with Kilner, fathered two more children with Goodman in secret, a revelation that has deeply strained his marriage. According to reports, Kilner has already sought preliminary legal advice and has been told that she would be entitled to half of Walker’s wealth if they proceed with a divorce.
“It’s a s***show at the moment. Kyle and Annie are arguing about pretty much everything,” a source told The Sun. “She’s told him she will only consider giving it another go if he gives her half of his money first.” Kilner’s motivation seems clear: she does not want any of her share of Walker’s fortune to end up benefiting Goodman.
Both parties have reportedly consulted solicitors in the hopes of reaching a financial settlement. Walker appears willing to give Kilner the requested amount to ensure her financial security and that of their children, although it remains uncertain if this will be enough to salvage their marriage. Kilner is still contemplating divorce, uncertain whether their relationship can truly be repaired.
This turmoil follows another shocking event for Kilner: her sister, Sian, recently gave birth to a baby boy conceived during a secret affair with a father-of-four. Kilner has accused her sister of “doing a Lauryn Goodman,” comparing her actions to the situation that tore apart her own marriage. Kilner has refused to meet the baby or attend the hospital after the birth. Walker reportedly called Sian a “hypocrite” and has also distanced himself from her.
Amid all of this, Lauryn Goodman has remained unapologetic about her relationship with Walker. In a recent interview with ITV’s This Morning, she said, “I can’t say I have any regrets because my children are my world. They wouldn’t be here, they wouldn’t be the way they are.” Goodman admitted that her current relationship with Walker is non-existent and handled entirely through lawyers, but she hopes that, for their children’s sake, they can one day be amicable.
As the drama unfolds, it remains to be seen whether Kilner and Walker can find common ground, or if their marriage will ultimately end in a highly publicized divorce.
