Massive financial rewards not enough to lure Kilner
Could potentially end up appearing on two shows later in 2025
According to The Daily Mail,the 33-year-old model and influencer was reportedly "ITV’s top target" for the upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother, which will be filmed in Spring. Despite the lucrative offer and strong interest from show producers, Kilner has opted not to take part. A major reason behind her decision is her nine-month-old son, Rezon, whom she does not want to leave for the extended filming period of three weeks.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
While Celebrity Big Brother may not be on her radar, Kilner is believed to be more keen on participating in other major reality shows such as ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! or the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing. She has reportedly drawn inspiration from Coleen Rooney, who gained significant media attention and public support through her appearance in I’m A Celebrity. Kilner also enjoys Dancing on Ice, making it another potential option for her in the future.
WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
A friend of Kilner explained why she had no interest in Celebrity Big Brother, stating that the high-pressure environment and the nature of the show were key deterrents.
"It's a format which is all talking and pressure, and people don't tend to come out of it all that well," one said. "Annie, I am sure, was flattered by the offer but she isn't going to be taking this one up."
DID YOU KNOW?
TV executives are particularly eager to sign Kilner because she has yet to publicly address the turmoil surrounding her marriage to Walker, who has been involved in a high-profile scandal. Walker, a father of six, has had two children with social media influencer Lauryn Goodman, leading to widespread speculation about the state of his marriage with Kilner.

WHAT NEXT?
Despite the turbulence in their relationship, there are indications that Kilner and her children could relocate to Italy if Walker’s loan spell at AC Milan extends beyond the current season. For now, however, she remains focused on family life and spending time with her nine-month-old son Rezon.
