Lauryn Goodman’s children cheered on their father Kyle Walker at the Euros quarter final as they watched the game from home on Saturday.
The influencer, 33, became embroiled in a paternity scandal earlier this year when it emerged the married footballer, 34, fathered her eight-month-old daughter, four-years after they welcomed son Kairo.
Lauryn dressed the kids in matching England shirts with Kyle’s number on the back as well as the word Daddy and captioned the post: ‘Come on England, always supporting’.
Meanwhile Kyle’s wife Annie Kilner joined him at the game in Dusseldorf and watched from the stands as she fed the couple’s two-month-old son Rezon – after arriving in Germany via a £35K private jet.
Annie also shares Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five, with the England Vice Captain, and the boys have also been seen at the matches wearing Kyle’s No. 2 shirt
The WAG has been present at every England match so far, however she has apparently vowed ‘not to play happy families’ with her husband in Germany.
Last week Lauryn shared a cryptic message from a supportive follower after watching Kyle play a previous match at the Euros.
She’d flew out to Germany to him on while his wife Annie Kilner also supported from the stands.
Lauryn shared and captioned the message – which was sent to her privately – with a heart hands emoji.
It read: ‘I would love to know if every other English fan has been questioned about why they went to the England game because there seems to be a lot of hate on you for going yet what is their reason for wanting you banned?.
‘Kairo has to miss out because it makes some people uncomfortable. The internet is wild honestly xxx.’
The person added: ‘I wait every month for your blogs, love how honest and real you are, keeping being you and doing what you’re doing.
‘Your kids will always know how amazing you are and how much you’ve done for them.’
Kairo is the son of Kyle, the England vice-captain and Manchester City star, whose exploits off the pitch have, in recent times, generated as many headlines as anything he’s achieved with his boots on.
In January, it was revealed that Kyle, 34, who is married to childhood sweetheart Annie, with whom he has four sons, had fathered another baby — a little girl — with influencer and reality TV personality, Lauryn.
Since then, there’s been a bitter war of words between all three parties, as Kyle fights for his marriage and Lauryn battles for acknowledgment of her children by their father.
Unlike the rest of the country, he wasn’t remotely bothered about the 1-1 draw against Denmark on Thursday: he just wanted to see his father as it was the first time he’d ever seen him play in the flesh.
Before then, Kairo had settled for hoping to find his father’s image in a packet of stickers for his Euros sticker book.
‘I can’t tell you how excited he was,’ Lauryn said in an exclusive interview with the Mail. ‘He was jumping up and down.’
And it was for that reason that Lauryn was determined to take Kairo to Frankfurt’s Deutsche Bank stadium.
Lauryn dressed him appropriately in his favourite outfit, a replica England shirt with his father’s number 2 and ‘Daddy’ written above.
Lauryn revealed to the Mail that her main motivation behind the Frankfurt trip was to keep a promise Kyle had made to their son in 2022 — when she was secretly pregnant with their second child — and he was playing at the Qatar World Cup.
‘Kyle told him on a FaceTime call that he would make sure he was at the next tournament because [Kyle] is getting older, and he knew there would perhaps not be any more opportunities.
‘There was no way I wasn’t going to take Kairo to the Euros,’ Lauryn said. ‘There was no way I was not going to uphold the promise that Kyle made to his son. This could have been his last chance so I wanted it to be something that Kairo 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. My children are my number one priority and they always will be. Luckily I’m a strong woman and mother for them.’
The scandal began when Lauryn met Kyle in 2019, when he was on a break from Annie.
Despite his infidelity and the birth of son Kairo, Kyle and Annie stayed together in Cheshire while Lauryn raised her son hundreds of miles away in Brighton.
Then, last December, Lauryn dropped another bombshell: that the daughter she had given birth to last summer was also Kyle’s, conceived when the two had briefly met up to settle paperwork over their son.
Annie threw Kyle out of their family home in Prestbury, Cheshire, and he moved into in a nearby apartment. However, after Annie gave birth to a fourth son in April, they have begun to mend their marriage, reportedly on the condition that Kyle cut off all contact with Lauryn and their children.
There are conflicting reports about whether Annie has forgiven Kyle yet. Sources claimed she only went to the Euros for the sake of the children, and certainly won’t be staying in Germany ‘playing happy families’. Instead, she is flying out for individual games.
Meanwhile, Lauryn is bringing up her children up as a single mum at a £2.4million house in Hove, East Sussex, which Kyle bought for them as part of his maintenance commitments.
