Kyle Walker and wife Annie Kilner 'put past behind them' after birth of fourth baby
Following the arrival of their fourth child, Kyle Walker and his estranged wife Annie Kilner are said to be forgetting the footballer's past mistakes and focusing on their family. The couple welcomed their fourth son together in April.
Kyle, 33, and Annie, 30, split towards the end of 2023 after it was revealed Kyle had fathered a second child with influence Lauryn Goodman. He has been living in a rental property near the family home he shared with Annie and their sons - Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five.
However, after welcoming their fourth child it seems the pair may be ready to put the past behind them. It's claimed they are "focusing on their children" and Kyle has been "on hand to support Annie".
A source close to the couple told the Mirror: "Kyle and Annie are over the moon and anything in the past isn't important right now. They're focusing on their four children as they take priority over everything.
"Yes, they've had hurdles, which Kyle has accepted he was in the wrong but they just want their children to come first. He's been recovering from an injury and captained England and Manchester City all while being on hand to support Annie after they welcomed the little one. Family and focusing on Kyle's career is all that matters to them both."
OK! has contacted representatives for Kyle and Annie.
The footballer was by Annie's side as she gave birth to the couple's fourth son, whose name is yet to be shared. News of their baby's birth broke earlier this week, with sources claiming the pair "couldn't be happier".
Speaking about Kyle and Annie's new arrival, a friend said: "The whole family are absolutely thrilled about the baby. It is a relief and a source of joy for them all. They want to move forward with their lives away from the drama from here on."
"The baby came over the weekend and we believe Kyle was with Annie in the hospital to support her as was always planned. Kyle has been a very involved father, and a very good father, throughout everything that has happened," they continued to the Daily Mail.
The new arrival is Kyle's sixth child, having also welcomed son Kairo, three, following a fling with Lauryn in 2019 while he had broken up with Annie. And earlier this year Lauryn revealed that he was also the father of her second child - a daughter born in August 2023 - and that she had fallen pregnant while he was married to Annie.
Kyle later confirmed that he had welcomed a second child with Lauryn, and publicly apologised to Annie. He told The Sun: "What I’ve done is horrible and I take full responsibility. I made idiot choices and idiot decisions."
He added: "I can’t begin to think or imagine what Annie is going through. I’ve tried to ask her but there’s pain and hurt. The man that’s meant to love, care and be there for her, did this."
