      “For me to be here on this stage with this trophy in my hand is a big success to him as well.”
      Before the event Walker posed for stylish snaps at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House hotel in nearby Mayfair.
      It came hours after Annie was spotted for the first time since discovering Walker fathered a second love child with Lauryn Goodman.
      The long-suffering wife, 30, was pictured smiling behind the wheel of her luxury Mercedes 4×4 driving through Cheshire this morning.
      And yesterday, Walker and Annie – who is six months pregnant – were pictured together for the first time since the split as Annie handed over Roman in Prestbury, Cheshire.

      She wrote: “I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight.
      “Sadly, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together; I have decided to take some time away from Kyle.
      “I do not wish to comment on the position any further. For now, I ask that the privacy of myself and our three young children is respected during this difficult time.”
      And, her fuming dad has also begged her not to go back to the footballer – or he will disown her.
      Annie is considering divorce and has even hired Coleen Rooney’s victorious Wagatha Christie lawyer, Paul Lunt.

      Lauryn with Walker’s daughter pictured on Thursday
      Sources said confirmation he had fathered a second child with model Lauryn Goodman had “broken” her.
      She has privately vowed to divorce the England ace and has even hired Coleen Rooney’s victorious Wagatha Christie lawyer, Paul Lunt.
      But the ongoing scandal has also sparked a major family rift – with sources warning of more heartache to come.
      One told how Annie’s dad has not spoken to Kyle since April 2020 after he was unmasked as the father of Lauryn’s first child, Kairo, now three.
      MORE ON KYLE WALKER
      The pair agreed to bury the hatchet at Christmas and even celebrated together at the Walker family home.
      But 24 hours later Kyle’s secret second baby was revealed.
      The source said: “Annie’s dad hadn’t spoken to Kyle since Kairo was born three years ago.
      “He refused to have anything to do with him.
      Most read in Football
      “They had only just got back on speaking terms in the last few months and he agreed to join the family for Christmas in Prestbury.
      “It will almost certainly be the last time.
      “When Lauryn’s messages dropped on Boxing Day, Annie’s dad hit the roof.
      “He loves his daughter with all his heart and can’t bear to see her in such pain.

      “He’s now told her he will disown her if she takes him back this time.
      “They had previously encouraged her to give it a go, despite everything, but this is the final straw.”
      The source added: “Kyle’s mum and dad are sticking by him.
      “And Annie’s parents are desperate to stand by her.
      “There’s no way she will go back to him – their marriage is over.”
      Annie spoke movingly of her upbringing in a 2020 interview with the Sun on Sunday.

      It comes as…

      She fondly recalled: “I was brought up by a loving family with good, solid morals.
      “My mum and dad are obsessed with each other and I wanted the same with Kyle.
      “But without me there he struggled to resist the temptations.
      “Like a lot of men he wanted to have his cake and eat it.”
      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.

      She had previously agreed to stand by the Manchester City ace despite his 2019 fling with model Lauryn.
      A source said the marriage had been on the rocks for months after Lauryn, 32, taunted her online about the identity of the baby’s father.

      The insider said: “Annie didn’t want to believe it, but she was obviously suspicious after his previous love child.
      “If it is true, how can he be so stupid to do it again?
      “I feel sorry for Annie and the kids. The truth is she loves him.”
      Friends said there was “no chance” Annie would reconcile with Walker.
      Most read in Football
      The love rat defender, 33, is no longer living at his family’s sprawling £2.5million pad in Cheshire.
      Lauryn – who gave birth to a baby girl in July – has long been dogged by rumours that Kyle is the father.
      She was seen for the first time since the couple’s split on a coffee run in Sussex while cradling her daughter. 
      Lauryn juggled car keys, a coffee and her phone while wearing black flared leggings, a black fleece and Adidas shoes.
      SHOCK SPLIT
      Walker’s shock split with Kilner comes after a series of sex scandals involving the Three Lions full-back who captained his country for the first time in November.
      The pair first met in their home city Sheffield when she was 15 and he 17.
      He moved from Sheffield United to Tottenham and established himself as a first team regular.
      But Walker was dogged by a series of controversies after his £50million move to City in 2017.
      Annie 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 Instagram influencer Lauryn Goodman, 32, 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 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.
      Last March the City star was seen on CCTV exposing himself in a bar and snogging a woman.

      The model – who gave birth to a baby girl in July – has long been dogged by rumours that Kyle is the father.
      She was seen for the first time since the couple’s split on a coffee run in Sussex while cradling her daughter. 
      Lauryn juggled car keys, a coffee and her phone while wearing black flared leggings, a black fleece and Adidas shoes.
      Lauryn had a brief relationship with footballer Kyle in 2019. The pair then had a son called Kairo in April 2020.
      They conceived the youngster during their short relationship when Kyle was temporarily split from Annie Kilner – who finally dumped him this week.
      In November 2021, Kyle and Annie – who have three sons together – got married, before announcing their separation. 
      In March 2023, Lauryn revealed that she was expecting her second child – and kept tight-lipped about her daughter’s paternity, only revealing he “is a footballer”.
      Yesterday The Sun revealed Annie, 30, was sent a message “out of the blue” on Boxing Day alleging that Kyle was the father of Lauryn’s second baby.
      Most read in Football
      Tearful Annie confronted the Man City full-back and the pair argued before she ordered him to leave the family home.
      A source said: “It absolutely floored her, he’d humiliated her once and now she suspected he’d done it again with the same woman.
      “It came out of the blue on Boxing Day- couldn’t have been a worse time to receive such a claim about her husband.”
      Another source told how the marriage had been on the rocks for months after Lauryn taunted her online about the identity of the baby’s father.

      They added: “She didn’t want to believe it, but she was obviously suspicious after his previous love child.”
      The source said Kyle had moved into a luxury apartment in Prestbury, Cheshire, but continues to see the three kids he has with Annie.
      Friends said there was “no chance” Annie would reconcile with the shamed player who has remained tight-lipped.
      Annie wrote on Instagram yesterday: “I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight.
      “Sadly, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together, I have decided to take some time away from Kyle.

      The Sun can also reveal that Annie dumped Kyle over claims he had fathered a second love child with model Lauryn Goodman, 32.

      The pair have son Kairo, three, following a fling in 2019 while he was briefly separated from Annie.
      Lauryn gave birth to a girl last July and has been dogged by rumours Kyle is the dad.
      Sources say Annie was “floored” after receiving a message on Boxing Day which made the same claim.
      The source added: “He’d humiliated her once and now Annie suspected he’d done it again with the same woman.

      “It came out of the blue, it couldn’t have been a worse time.”
      The couple had a showdown and Annie kicked him out of their £2.5million mansion in Cheshire.
      She has had a series of heart-to-hearts with Coleen, wife of former England striker Wayne.
      Annie has “lawyered up” with legal whizz Paul Lunt, who acted for Coleen in her libel battle with Wag Becky Vardy.
      Annie has also recruited top PR agent Rachel Monk.
      Incredibly, Kyle ditched his spokeswoman and also hired Miss Monk to manage the scandal.
      Annie had previously agreed to stand by the Manchester City ace despite his 2019 fling with model Lauryn.
      Annie branded his betrayal “obscene” but insisted on ­keeping their family together. But she finally snapped after their ­Boxing Day row.
      Another source said the marriage had been on the rocks for months after Lauryn taunted her online about the identity of the baby’s father.
      The source added: “Annie didn’t want to believe it, but she was obviously suspicious after his previous love child.”
      The source said Kyle has moved into an apartment in Prestbury, Cheshire, but still sees his and Annie’s three kids.
      The source added: “If it is true, how can he be so stupid to do it again? I feel sorry for Annie and the kids. The truth is she loves him.”
      Friends said there was “no chance” Annie would reconcile.
      Kyle, who captained the Three Lions against North Macedonia in November, has remained silent.
      She announced their separation on Wednesday following a series of secret legal meetings.
      Annie wrote on Instagram: “I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the ­intensity of the media spotlight.
      “Sadly, after many years of ­marriage and three wonderful children together, I have decided to take some time away from Kyle.”
      She added: “I do not wish to ­comment on the position any ­further.
      “For now, I ask that the ­privacy of myself and our three young children is respected during this difficult time.”
      The couple wed in November 2021 but have been together for 15 years after meeting as teenagers in their home city of Sheffield.
      Annie loyally followed Kyle when he signed for Tottenham, and when he made his £50million move to Manchester City in 2017.
      But sex scandals followed — including a sordid 2019 fling with TV reality star Laura Brown.
      Annie took him back, but within weeks Lauryn was pregnant with Kairo.
      He confessed to Annie in a phone call from training in ­February 2020 and Kairo was born that April.
      Despite the ­heartache, Annie agreed to take him back again for the sake of their kids.
      She later revealed the pain he had inflicted in an exclusive interview with The Sun on Sunday, saying: “I don’t think I’ll ever be the same again because of what he’s done.
      “It makes me really sad that I’ve been damaged so badly when I’ve done nothing to deserve it. I love Kyle dearly and I’ll always love him, but to do this to me . . . after three kids?”
      She added: “I’ve tried to hate him but how can I hate the man my kids love so much?
      “Before the infidelity he was my best friend, my soulmate. I could count on him for anything. But none of what I thought we had feels real because he stabbed me in the back.”
      She also spoke of her pain as she wondered if Kairo looked like Kyle.
      Kyle had promised to have nothing to do with Lauryn or his son.
      But after a legal meeting in September 2022 they began communicating and he was secretly seeing Kairo up to twice a week.
      A source said: “Lauryn has always wanted Kyle to be a part of Kairo’s life.

      “Kyle and Lauryn only discussed their son and there was nothing else to it, but if he didn’t tell Annie it’s not surprising she was upset to find out.
      “They are constantly in touch but it is all for the sake of their boy.”
