Lauryn Goodman grins on set of Celebs Go Dating after signing up as a latecomer amid drama with footballer Kyle Walker
LAURYN Goodman grinned on the set of Celebs Go Dating today after signing up as a latecomer.
Influencer Lauryn, 33, famed for her drama with footballer Kyle Walker, 34, was seen visiting a London café to meet with producers before cameras started rolling.
She put on a trendy display in a casual black shirt and matching shorts, which she teamed up with flip flops.
Chloe Goodman‘s estranged sister threw a white handbag over her shoulder and framed her face with oversized sunglasses.
Lauryn was seen laughing and joking with a friend on FaceTime, having arrived early.
Lauryn will be getting love advice from experts Paul Carrick Brunson, Anna Williamson and Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn on the E4 show.
She’ll be joined by the star-studded cast – Chris Taylor, Helen Flanagan, Ella Morgan, Jamelia, Stephen Lustig-Webb and Tristan Phipps.
Lauryn has been involved in a very public feud with Kyle since their fling in 2019 was brought to light.
She welcomed their son Kairo into the world in April 2020, after they slept together while Kyle was on a break with his wife Annie.
Last year, it was revealed Lauryn was pregnant again and then gave birth to a daughter in August 2023.
After much speculation, it was revealed that Kyle was also the father.
Kyle and Annie, who got together when they were teenagers, only tied the knot in 2022, but split in January.
The pair share four kids, Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, five-year old Reign and their baby son who she gave birth to in April.
Yesterday, The Sun revealed England’s WAGs have united behind Annie amid fears Lauryn will also be at today’s last-16 game against Slovakia.
Megan Pickford, wife of goalie Jordan, Anouska Santos, girlfriend of Luke Shaw, and Tolami Benson, partner of Bukayo Saka, have vowed to protect Annie, 32.
A source said: “They have her back.”
Annie and three of her four sons with Man City ace Kyle are taking a private jet to tomorrow’s match against Slovakia.
Lauryn may also be in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, with Kairo, her four-year-old son with the defender.
The pair also have a daughter, who is ten months old.
Annie narrowly missed her rival at the 1-1 draw with Denmark in Frankfurt on June 20.
Pal Megan Pickford, wife of goalie Jordan, was said to have been appalled by Lauryn’s attendance at that game.
Also in Annie’s corner are Anouska Santos, girlfriend of Luke Shaw, and Bukayo Saka’s partner Tolami Benson.
A WAG source said: “They have all known Annie for a long time.
“They stick together and want Annie to know she is not alone.
“They have her back.”
Annie has kept a dignified silence since discovering in January that Kyle had fathered Lauryn’s second child.
She kicked him out of their home, and the player has been trying to repair the damage ever since.
The source added: “Meghan, Anouska and the other Wags can’t begin to imagine what Annie is going through.
“It must be so hard, but even more so because it’s so public.
“Annie is dealing with what Kyle has done and wants to do that privately.
“But she’s also put her feelings to one side to take their boys to the matches.
“Yet, all the while, she has no idea if Lauryn will be there.
“It’s a terrible situation and made worse by Lauryn who appears to be trying to promote herself as a Wag.
“She’s deluded.”
Another source said: “There’s a sense of bewilderment about why Lauryn would go to the match.
“Kyle has nothing to do with the children and no emotional relationship with them.
“They’ve never been to any of his previous matches.
“I’m sure they support England and no one would begrudge them going.
“But why do it so publicly?”
Influencer Lauryn, 33, stunned Kyle and Annie after taking Kairo to the 1-1 draw with Denmark in Frankfurt on June 20.
Kairo wore an England shirt with No2 and “Daddy” on the back.
They flew out with a journalist and Lauryn posed for photos before kick-off, insisting: “There was no way I wasn’t going to take Kairo to the Euros.
“I wanted it to be something he could remember for ever. 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 said she had not even given a chance meeting with Annie a second thought.
She added: “I wasn’t fearful at all that I was going to bump into her.
“It doesn’t cross my mind.
“I couldn’t care less.
“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.”
Three of Team Annie — Tolami, Anouska and Megan — featured in a picture posted yesterday by Jarrod Bowen’s partner Dani Dyer.
It also included Ollie Watkins’ girlfriend Ellie Alderson and was taken before Tuesday’s 0-0 draw against Slovenia.
ANNIE AND KYLE'S RELATIONSHIP
Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker started dating in their teens.
The brunette beauty said: “When we started going out it was love at first sight.”
They were together for over nine years before splitting in May 2019.
Walker then became a dad for the fourth time after a short-term relationship with Lauryn Goodman.
Despite the challenges in their relationship, Walker and Kilner put their troubles behind them and got married at the beginning of 2022 after the England star proposed with a £250,000 engagement ring.
In March 2023, the pair were spotted kissing in public, with life seemingly back to normal.
The couple then split in January 2024 after Goodman revealed the footballer was the father of her two children.
