My relationship with Kyle Walker turned toxic – he gaslit me and threatened to not see our kids, claims Lauryn Goodman
LAURYN Goodman has claimed her relationship with Kyle Walker turned toxic when he gaslit her and threatened to not see their two kids.
Model and social media influencer Lauryn also accused the football love rat of “grooming” her into a “false sense of security”, being controlling and repeatedly lying to her about their relationship.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday, Lauryn, 32, was left fighting back tears as she spoke about how tough her life has been because of the Manchester City and England right back.
She claimed: “He groomed me into a false sense of security. He gave me a very different picture of his life that was far from the truth.
“He told me that Annie (Walker’s wife) used to be horrible about my son too. He would gaslight me, gaslight her. I don’t know what was lies and what was the truth.
“He tried to control me too. If I didn’t do as he wanted he would threaten not to see the children. I wanted them to have their dad in their lives so I did as he said.”
Lauryn and Walker were already public about their three-year-old son Kairo following a brief relationship when the footballer had split from his childhood sweetheart Annie Kilner.
But the pair’s second child – a nearly six-month-old girl – was conceived during Walker’s seemingly happy marriage to Annie.
Lauryn kept the identity of the girl’s father a secret despite her giving birth last summer, until she was recently confirmed as Walker’s.
The bombshell revelation caused Annie to announce last week she was separating from the full back after being married for two years.
Kyle and Annie have three sons together but are now living separately after the love rat defender moved out of the family’s sprawling £2.5million pad and into a flat in Cheshire.
Lauryn, who lives in Brighton, said everything started to unravel just before Christmas.
She said: “It came to a head on December 23rd.
“Kyle and I had been to a legal meeting earlier that month and I knew he was lying to me – and lying to her.
“Somebody had told me that Annie was pregnant and I asked him. He laughed and said, ‘You’re miles off it… and you’re actually mental’. That was the kind of thing he’d say to me.
“When things were good with her it was bad with me, and when things were bad with her they were good with me.
“He played us off, he had two lives.”
Lauryn recalls telling Walker that the situation had turned “too toxic” before saying: “I needed him to stop gaslighting me and I blocked him.”
After Annie kicked him out of their house, the footballer responded online.
In an Instagram statement, Walker said: “Annie is an amazing woman and I can only apologise for the upset I’ve caused her.
“She’s been part of my life for so long and that will never change for the sake of our children.
“I would ask for privacy for all of our family, and especially our young children, whilst we work through these difficult times.”
Walker has been dogged by a series of controversies after his £50million move to the blue side of Manchester in 2017.
Annie first kicked him out in 2019 after Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown said they repeatedly romped in his Bentley.
She took the £160,000-a-week defender back but gave him the boot again when he revealed Lauryn was having his baby.
Walker moved into an £8,000-a-month flat nearby Hale, Cheshire -— but was then caught breaching lockdown rules by having an orgy with two sex workers.
The defender and a pal agreed to pay escort Louise McNamara, 21, and a 24-year-old Brazilian call girl £2,200 in cash.
He told the girls his name was “Kai” before reportedly pulling out gold-coloured Shine condoms.
He apologised before breaking lockdown rules a second time just weeks later during visits to see his family.
Despite fathering another child, the couple reunited after Annie vowed to stay together for the sake of their three young kids.
Before last March, Walker was seen on CCTV exposing himself in a bar and snogging a woman.
Pals of Annie have said there is “no chance” Annie would reconcile with Walker after this latest scandal.
