KYLE WALKER was “ribbed endlessly” by his football pals over Lauryn Goodman – and is now “struggling” after being dumped, a source has claimed.
The England star was dumped after wife Annie Kilner was sent a message about a “second love child” with Instagram influencer Lauryn.
Lauryn had a brief relationship with footballer Kyle in 2019. The pair then had a son called Kairo in April 2020.
The model – who gave birth to a baby girl in July – had long been dogged by rumours that Kyle is the father of both her kids.
And now a source close to Kyle has told how his teammates had been ribbing him over the rumours.
The source told The Sun: “Kyle is really going through it at the minute so his football mates are holding back.

“But over the last three years he’s been ribbed endlessly by them.
“It’s a big part of the culture to have this kind of banter and over the years Kyle has been on the receiving end of so many jokes about Lauryn. He laughs it off and takes it all.
“At the moment he’s been struggling with it all and everything that is happening with Annie.
“But the mates he goes out with will be turning the jokes back on as soon as it passes.”

Annie, 30, had long suspected he was the dad of Lauryn’s daughter, born in July, after he bought the model a £2million mansion.
And on Boxing Day it’s understood she received a message from Lauryn saying: “I don’t have two baby daddies — I have one.”
Annie banished the £160,000-a-week player from the family’s £2.4million home and has since ditched her wedding ring.
The couple met as teenagers in their home city of Sheffield.
But their troubles began after he made a £50million move from Tottenham to Manchester City in 2017.
In 2019 it emerged he had romped with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in his Bentley.
Model Annie kicked him out but gave him another chance.
He was moving his stuff back in when he had a brief fling with Lauryn and she fell pregnant. Kyle moved out of the family home and began renting a luxury £8,000-a-month apartment in nearby Hale, Cheshire.
He pleaded with Annie to take him back but was then exposed for breaking Covid rules by hosting a £2,200 orgy with two hookers.
Lauryn gave birth to Kairo in April then publicly unmasked Walker as his dad.
Annie took him back again and he proposed with a £250,000 ring.
The couple wed in December 2021 at Mottram Hall, Cheshire.
It comes as the player romped with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in his Bentley 4×4 and was caught having a Covid busting orgy with two hookers.
Last March the City star was seen on CCTV exposing himself in a bar and snogging a woman.

He dirty-danced with the woman — not his wife — and a female friend after he arrived at the Manchester venue drunk with male pals.
Walker later voluntarily attended a police station for an interview for indecent exposure.
