Lauryn Goodman has sparked speculation that Kyle Walker is the biological father of her two children after his wife Annie Kilner announced their split.
Rumors have been circulating about the paternity of Lauryn's daughter – who she welcomed with “another footballer” in August.
She shares her eldest child, three-year-old son Cairo, with the footballer after they began a brief romance during his temporary split from Annie in 2019.
Kyle, 33, is also father to Riaan, Roman and Reign from his 12-year relationship with Annie.
While Lauryn, 32, has not publicly revealed the identity of her daughter's father, a series of cryptic social media posts confirming that her daughter shares the same initials as the footballer left fans wondering if it was Kyle was.

In an Instagram post on Wednesday evening, Annie confirmed her separation from the footballer
When she first welcomed her daughter – whose name she has not yet revealed – she insisted in an Instagram post: “Please don't believe everything you read. Yesterday I received a lot of messages just to clarify that I have not yet had a child with “I have had a child with another footballer,” the news articles said.
“I know there is speculation about the little one’s father, and as I have stated publicly, the time is right.”
Fans were quick to question whether she had stressed that it wasn't “another” footballer, as Kyle was actually the father of both children.
She also revealed that her daughter's last name starts with W, writing in her Instagram bio: “Mummy to @kairowalker & KW.”
It took Lauryn a year to publicly reveal her son's name, but she had a necklace with his initials, “KW,” which matched his father's.
Observant fans then noticed Lauryn liking a number of comments asking whether Manchester City player Kyle was the father of her second child.
Followers also believe she has dropped a number of “hints” in recent months.
Lauryn's followers noticed that she was wearing the slogan “I'm A Lion” on her chest in a photo of her daughter and wondered whether it was a reference to the English footballer.
The reality star did little to dispel the speculation as she liked a comment from a fan who wrote: “I'm a Leo so five is the magic number now.”
Lauryn also liked the comment: “I'm really shocked!” Because Kyle Walker must be the father with all these clues!! But is he in a relationship with two women?! My goodness, all the poor kids involved.'
One comment read: “You realize you can silence people, both babies' last names are Walker.” “Stop being fat,” Lauren also liked.
The TV personality previously said: “I know there is speculation about the little one's father and as I have said publicly when the time is right.”
Last month, Lauryn shared a cryptic Instagram post in which she revealed she was “taking back control” of her children's lives.
Alongside a picture of her two children with their faces covered, she shared: “The new year begins anew.” Taking back control of our lives. No more puppets on a string.
“We've missed our Insta family for sharing our journey and can't wait to get back to sharing our daily lives with you all once I explain what I need to do.” “I'm sorry about that “We left you for a while, it was a hard ride.”
The 32-year-old Ex On The Beach star hasn't revealed the identity of her daughter's father since her daughter's birth in August last year, but keen-eyed fans believe she's dropped some clues

Fans also said that Lauryn's children had “the same beautiful hair”, with the TV star saying: “Not those curly locks, mine are totally straight.”
Fans were quick to point out that her children had similar curls, and after Lauryn revealed that they didn't inherit her hair from her, one follower asked, “So Kyle is the daughter's father too?” They're twins that way look alike, speak your truth, don't let anyone silence you for money!!! ❤️'
Another fan then shared: “Someone at Annie's.” [Kilner] Page said who the father is!!'
Lauryn replied that it was just someone who “thinks they know,” adding, “If they send me 'Nathan Wood' in my DMs, I have no idea who that is. “I think people are just stupid at this rate.'
When Lauryn gave birth to her daughter in August, a source told The Sun on Sunday: “Lauryn hasn't said who the baby's father is.”
“Her friends think it’s a football player and have asked her directly – but she won’t tell anyone.”
“The little girl is adorable. Very calm and constantly eating. She has a lot of hair – a full head, just like Cairo had when he was born.”
Lauryn announced in March last year that she was expecting her second child.
She shared a photo of herself and her son Cairo on Instagram, which showed Lauryn's baby bump as she posed in a bikini during a beach vacation.
“For your information…it's a BABY! The family was completed in 2023. The fertility bracelet is still going strong – find the mother and child collection at @lovecrystalhealinglife,” she captioned the post.
Web has contacted representatives for Lauryn and Kyle for comment.
Annie announced her separation from the footballer in an Instagram post on Wednesday evening.
She wrote: “Unfortunately, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together, I have decided to take a break from Kyle.”
“I do not wish to comment further on the position. “For now, I ask that the privacy of me and my three young children be respected during this difficult time.”
Kyle secretly married his childhood sweetheart Annie in 2021.

The couple married in December 2021 after a 12-year relationship during which they had three children (pictured at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar).
Last month it was claimed the couple had fallen out over his relationship with Lauryn after embarking on a brief romance with the TV personality during a previous split in 2019.
There is a long-standing feud between the two women.
A source said at the time: “Kyle and Annie have been arguing.” She said she had had enough because of all the ongoing issues with Lauryn.
“There was another legal meeting between her and Kyle this week. It's a real burden for them.
“Annie hasn't done anything wrong except trust him. “She wants to keep things together.”
But Kyle said after the speculation that he was still with Annie after legal meetings with Lauryn that reportedly put a strain on their relationship.
He told The Sun outside the couple's Cheshire mansion: “We haven't broken up. 'I'm here at my family home, aren't I?'
The footballer is still in touch with Lauryn and is said to have bought her and her children a “£2.5million seaside villa” in September.
But Lauryn has accused Kyle's wife Annie of treating their boy like an “outcast” and acting like he is a “dirty secret” after she commented on Kyle having “three sons instead of four”.
Annie and Kyle had a complicated past and split in 2019 after he was embroiled in a cheating scandal.
At the time, he was dumped by the former glamor model after an alleged series of affairs with reality TV star Laura Brown.

A friend of the Ex On The Beach star claimed Laura confessed to Annie about the alleged sexual encounters that took place in the back seat of Walker's £200,000 Bentley Bentayga.
Annie reportedly kicked the footballer out of their £3.5million mansion following the scandal before they later got back together.
An insider told the Sun that after Brown found out Walker had a girlfriend, he texted her: “He's a rat, he was always funny and a nice guy to me but when I found out he was actually with you and the kids was me.” “I'm not the girl who meets with him all the time. I know you’ve been together for a long time, but that’s no excuse for him.”
She told a friend at the time: “I felt exploited.” Because he is a rich footballer, he felt he could treat me however he wanted.”
Kyle met Annie when he was 18 while playing for his hometown club Sheffield United, when the glamor model was just 16.
It wasn't the first time the couple's long-standing love was rocked by cheating allegations.
Walker was reportedly caught sending messages to Playboy model Carla Howe while he was with the England team in France during Euro 2016.
Earlier this year, Kyle reportedly bought his ex Lauryn and her children “a £2.5 million seaside villa and has already spent £40,000 on curtains alone.”
Lauryn previously accused Annie of treating her son like an “outcast” and acting like he was a “dirty secret” after she commented on Kyle having “three sons instead of four.”
She wrote on Instagram: “2023, what a special year, made history. “I understand we skipped a few chapters here… @kairowalker always supports us.”
However, Annie seemingly hit back at Lauryn's post with a snap of her own, which showed her sons Riaan, Roman and Reign on the field with their father and captioned the snap, “3 is the magic number.”
She added: “Win the Champions League with your dad.” All those memories you can have with your dad.
“Nothing and no one will ever take that away from you. We got you 3.”
Furious at the post, Lauryn then lashed out at Annie, branding her an “evil stepmother” who is trying to “erase existence” of her son.
The argument began after Manchester City's recent treble win when Lauryn showed a photo of Cairo in his father's team kit.
Lauryn hasn't chosen a name for her little girl yet. The source added that she would like a name that starts with the letter “K,” just like the newborn's older brother, Cairo.
The internet personality asked her social media followers for their opinion on girls' names that start with “K.”
It took Lauryn a year to publicly reveal her son's name, but she had a necklace with his initials, “KW,” which matched his father's.

Lauryn became pregnant with Cairo while in a brief relationship with athlete Kyle during his temporary split from his wife Annie.
Lauryn recently slammed Annie after she allegedly took a “vengeful dig” at her son.
The two women are no strangers to feuding over Kyle fathering Lauryn's child, with WAG Annie herself sharing three sons with the athlete.
