    WHEN Annie Kilner and Lauryn Goodman both attend the Euros this summer it could be the most awkward run-in in Wag history.
    Forget the game, this has the potential to be far more interesting.
    It’s shaping up to be the most raucous event since the 2006 Wags were dancing on the tables of Baden-Baden.
    There is only one person to blame for this drama and that is Kyle himself.
    I sympathise with Annie as she’s just given birth.
    And Lauryn has every right to go to the Euros because she has children with Kyle.
    If he was to score a goal or be man of the match you would want your child to be there to say they saw that.
    But I can only see this unravelling further.
    This very sorry affair will surely go global. I can imagine a documentary or even a movie being made.
    Whatever you think about footballers and their wives, people are gripped.
    This could get bigger than handbags at dawn or, dare I say, Wagatha Christie.

    A spokesperson for Kyle said: “Lauryn continues to pursue wild and untrue stories whilst Kyle and Annie attempt to move forward away from any drama.“All comments are being dealt with privately and through the proper legal channels as the couple do not wish to engage in further public dispute, particularly where children are involved.” Yesterday Kyle captained Manchester City in their 1-0 win over Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley.Prem stars won’t know what’s hit them’, as wronged pair Lauryn Goodman & Rita Johal set for TV show about life of WAGSSources close to the player said: “Kyle categorically did not invite Lauryn, or any member of her family, to the Euros. “He is fully focused on taking his country all the way to picking up the trophy. He is grateful for all the support.”READ MORE SUN STORIESSources say Annie has sought legal advice over some of Lauryn’s posts, with a view that they could be harassment. We approached Lauryn’s people for comment. More
