Kyle Walker was pictured arriving for a court showdown with ex-lover Lauryn Goodman, days after England’s defeat to Spain in the final of Euro 2024.
Walker has two children with Lauryn, namely; Kairo, 4, and an 8-month-old daughter, whose name is yet to be revealed.
The Manchester City man is understood to be prepared for a court battle with the reality television star.
Lauryn Goodman was spotted donning khaki trousers alongside a striped shirt, with Walker wearing a black suit as they arrived in court separately on Tuesday, July 16.
Spain got the better of England 2-1 in the final of Euro 2024, with Kyle Walker playing the entirety of the intense affair, as the Three Lions lost back-to-back European Championship titles.
Reports indicate that Walker flew home alongside England’s Euro 2024 contingent on Monday, July 15, 2024, following the painful loss to La Roja. A day later, he was in court to defend his role in the life of the children he shared with Lauryn.
Kyle Walker In London For Court Battle With Ex-lover Lauryn Goodman
Instead of traveling to Manchester, Kyle Walker was forced to remain in London due to a court battle with ex Lauryn Goodman.
Lauryn had posted Kairo’s reaction to England’s loss, revealing that the four-year-old was desperate to have a discussion with his father.
The young lad responded to his mother after She informed him that Gareth Southgate’s side had been defeated.
He said: “I don’t want them to win, I don’t want Spain to have won. That’s not kind… can’t I call my dad?”
Lauryn Goodman then replied: “Oh bub” and captioned the footage with the words, “Little man is gutted”.
Lauryn Goodman Takes Son Kairo Walker To England’s Euro 2024 Group Game
Recall Goodman had travelled to Germany earlier in the recently concluded 2024 European Championship with Kairo to watch one of England’s group games.
Kyle Walker’s wife Annie, was also present in the stadium with their four boys, as security officials kept watchful eyes over Lauryn to prevent her from attempting something sinister.
Meanwhile Lauryn later maintained that there was no way she wouldn’t have taken her son to the 2024 European Championship.
Lauryn Goodman stressed that she wanted to make Kairo happy and that’s why she brought him to Germany to watch matches of England.
She said: “This could have been his last chance so I wanted it to be something that Kairo could remember forever.
“We are not here to please other people. It’s about Kairo and what is best for him and what is going to make him happy.
“I won’t be scapegoated or bullied and made to feel like a villain.”
Lauryn Goodman On Kyle Walker’s Wife Annie Kilner
33-year-old Lauryn Goodman shared that she wasn’t scared that she could accidentally bump into Walker’s wife Annie Kilner, reiterating that she was at the stadium because of Kairo.
Lauryn added: “I wasn’t fearful at all that I was going to bump into her. It doesn’t cross my mind, I don’t give it a thought at all. I couldn’t care less.”
She further said: “I just get on with things. I was there for Kairo, no one else, and if anyone has an issue with it, that’s their problem, not mine.”
English WAGs are said to be solidly behind Annie, who is believed to be worried by the extent Lauryn Goodman could go to take Kyle Walker from her.
Walker snubbed Lauryn during the Euro 2024 group game between England and Denmark, with the influencer and model taking to Instagram to put out a cryptic post.
The post read: “I was extremely sad for how someone treated me, but then I remembered how kind I am to people, that’s a reflection of me.
“How people treat me is a projection of their character, and not a reflection of my value.
“May I always remember that I’m taking my power back.”
Possibly, the court case over Walker’s lack of involvement with her kids could be her way of getting back at the footballer for how he has treated her in recent years.
