Shock U-turn! Lauryn Goodman wants ‘peace talks’ with Annie Kilner & unity between mothers of AC Milan loan star Kyle Walker’s children

Former Love Island contestant Goodman is mother to two children with England international Walker who were conceived outside of his relationship with long-time partner Kilner. Said infidelity has put considerable strain on a marriage that has faced plenty of divorce speculation.

Goodman has refused to fade into the background, as she continues to fight her corner, and remains a constant thorn in Kilner’s side. She has been giving Walker the chance to restore trust, although more unfortunate headlines made on the back of a loan move to Italy have been doing that cause few favours.

According to OK Magazine, Goodman is ready to sit down and talk through her differences with Kilner. A source has said: “She doesn’t want this. She wants to start building bridges and engage in some kind of peace talks with Annie. She wants to bring them together and unify them somehow. The constant fighting is silly. It’s not been fair for anybody, especially for the children.”

While Goodman is willing to hold peace talks, Kilner is reluctant to be dragged further into what has already become a protracted soap opera. OK’s insider added: “As far as Kyle and Annie are concerned, they are continuing on with their lives and trying their best to avoid any public spats.

“Annie is just moving on. If it’s anyone’s war, it’s Lauren and Kyle’s – but it’s not Annie’s. She won’t engage with Lauren. Of course, the past was difficult, but it’s been a year – and Kyle, Annie and their boys are carving a new ending away from it all. She is focusing on her children, not herself, and navigating life with Kyle, waiting to see what the next steps are with his contract.”

It has been suggested that Kilner could star in a documentary all about her new life in Italy alongside Walker – although a permanent move there is yet to be made. Goodman, meanwhile, has considered leaving England herself, with Dubai or Portugal being mooted as potential landing spots.
