Lauryn Goodman in tears as she takes a dig at Kyle Walker in the new tell-all podcast
Lauryn Goodman became a household name herself after her affair with Kyle Walker came to light, now she’s revealing all.
The 33-year-old has two children with the football star and recently started her own podcast to discuss single parenting.
In the second episode of Yours faithfullyLauryn was in tears as she discussed the impact it had on her children, Kairo and Kinara.
While Lauryn remained tight-lipped for years about the father of her children, with her first born in 2020, it soon emerged that it was actually Kyle Walker who has four children with his wife Annie Kilner.
Her 13-month-old daughter Kinara was also fathered by Kyle whose partner Annie Kilner was also pregnant with his child.
But Lauryn is managing parenting alone and revealed the issues she and her son are dealing with now that he’s in daycare, claiming Kyle has nothing to do with their kids.

On his first day of school, Lauryn says he acted like a “true gentleman” by going up to other kids and telling them it was nice to meet them before going to class.
But Lauryn and her co-host and close friend Lisa Andrews discussed how Kyle “had no idea” it was his son’s first day of school, while Lauryn said she “didn’t keep him informed.”
The mother says she is having difficulty with some of the tasks the class has suggested, especially an assignment about the family.
“I’ll tell you why I welled up today,” Lauryn says.
She explained that they had an assignment to do throughout the day summer holidays, a book about family and what the children did during the holidays, so they could talk about it with classmates.
She asked the teacher what the best move was for the book: whether to include photos of Kyle and his family or avoid the subject entirely.
“I don’t want Kairo, I don’t even want to get angry,” she said as her voice broke and tears formed in her eyes.
“I don’t want Kairo to sit there in the classroom while everyone with their family and father is handing out a book and feel some way when those kids are talking clearly about their families.”
She opted to keep the photos out and instead included images of Kyle’s parents taking the kids to the zoo.
But she revealed the difficult dilemma she faced when Kairo started asking questions about his father.
Kyle Walker’s sit-down interview with The Sun
By Paul Sims
ENGLAND CEO Kyle Walker admitted in January that he made “idiotic choices and idiotic decisions” about his secret child and bitterly regrets betraying his soulmate wife Annie.
He said this in a sit-down interview with The Sun.
“What I did is terrible and I take full responsibility.
“I made crazy choices and crazy decisions. I can’t begin to think or imagine what Annie is going through. I tried to ask her, but there is pain and hurt.
“The man who is supposed to love her, care for her and be there for her did this.
“There have been days in this ordeal where I just wanted to curl up in a ball and go to sleep.
“The only person to blame for that is me. I have roles and responsibilities that I am aware of and I have made stupid choices. But I have to admit my mistakes – I owe it to everyone.
“My actions have caused a lot of pain to many people. I’m sorry, because as a family this is not the intention.
“I am a private man but I accept that I am a public figure and I have to address what I have done.
“It didn’t help that it was played out in the media. But I have chosen to speak now in the hope that I can at least explain myself and offer my wife and children the privacy they so desperately need and deserve.
“When I met Annie at the age of 17, I never thought my private life would be like this. I never thought I would become a father of six children.
“I have achieved more in football than I ever thought I would achieve. But to personally hurt what I truly believe is my best friend, that hurts a lot.
“How can I hurt someone I love so much? That’s something I have to find within myself.
“I have to find out why I did this and why situations arose. I’m human and I’ve made mistakes both on and off the field.
“The players off the field are definitely more damaging and painful for me.
“Football has been my life since I was six, but my family comes before anything on this planet. Right now they are in a lot of pain.
“My son sleeps with me every night and not to have him. . . I’m used to being away with England for long periods of time.
“We say goodnight via FaceTime. But to know that I’m not with him because of my mistake – mistake is probably the wrong word, my choices – that’s what hurts me.”
“I just don’t want to cause him any abandonment issues,” she explained as she navigated and gave him the right information.
Lauryn took their eldest son, Kairo, to Germany to watch his father play for England at this year’s European Championship, but left early, telling the Daily Mail: “We left five minutes early to avoid upsetting Kairo and would be confused because his father went to his father.” siblings, but not him.
“It would have been so sad for him and I wasn’t going to risk that.”
Lauryn has also been embroiled in a years-long feud with her sister Chloe Goodman and was even locked out of her wedding to footballer Grant Hall last year.
It is thought the once close sisters became estranged following the revelation that Kyle had also fathered Lauryn’s second child, born in 2023, while he was still married to Annie.
