Lauryn Goodman preparing for fresh legal battle with Kyle Walker after being left ‘astonished’ by Man City star's 'load of nonsense' claims

Per The Daily Mail, Goodman has branded Walker's claim that her social media posts constitute harassment as "nonsense" and is now preparing for a new legal battle. Walker fathered two children with Goodman but is attempting to rescue his relationship with Annie Kilner, his childhood sweetheart.

In the meantime, he is said to be instructing lawyers to look into tweets from Goodman that have shared details of the pair's private life, as he fears a negative impact on his children with Kilner.

The Mail quote an unnamed friend of Goodman, saying: "Lauryn couldn't believe it when she became aware of this. She's astonished at the idea that using social media in some way could be construed as harassment. She's been told even songs or videos she puts up have been regarded as potential harassment. She thinks it's a load of nonsense, and she's planning to instruct her legal team to fight it with all they can."

Goodman has already lost one legal battle, over child maintenance, where she was branded "difficult, unreasonable and demanding" by a judge. She was also accused of using Walker as an "open-ended chequebook".

Walker is said to be considering his options away from the pitch. On it, he was on the bench against Chelsea at the weekend, and will hope to return to City's team against Ipswich Town this weekend.
