The 33-year-old footballer, who has been in the press many times with his love life, has finally split with his wife Annie Kilner, with whom he has three children and is expecting a fourth, because he has two illegitimate children with influencer Lorraine Goodman.
The parallel relationship and the second chance
With tears in his eyes, Walker gave an interview to The Sun, where he admitted to making “stupid choices and making stupid decisions”. In an apologetic mood, Walker told the Sun, “What I did is horrible and I take full responsibility.
I made stupid choices and made stupid decisions. I can’t imagine what Annie is going through. I tried to ask her, but she’s in so much pain and hurt. I, who should have loved her, cared for her and been there for her, betrayed her.”

Walker, who is expected to play a key role for England at the European Championships in June, said he wanted to… disappear off the face of the earth after his relationship with Goodman was revealed in January.
“When I met Annie, when I was 17, I never imagined my personal life would take such a turn. I never thought I would become a father of six children. The only one to blame is me. I have all the responsibility and I made stupid choices.
I admit my mistakes – I owe it to everyone. My actions caused a lot of pain, to a lot of people. I’m sorry because this, it shouldn’t have happened.”

In 2020 Goodman said the father of her eldest child, son Cairo, was Walker and the footballer announced the news to his wife hours before it went public.
The footballer was then forced to move, but eventually Killner gave him a second chance on the condition that he cut off all contact with Goodman, in addition to his ongoing financial obligations for the child.
In August 2022, however, Goodman revealed that she planned to move closer to Walker with her son Cairo. Walker said how he met her at a law firm and that’s where he first saw his son. That’s when the two started seeing each other again.
The double exhumation
In early October 2022, the footballer travelled to London and met with Goodman. They then started having sexual encounters, which resulted in the influencer becoming pregnant again.
As revealed by Walker, she called him during a training session and when she told him she was pregnant she almost passed out. Walker kept Goodman’s pregnancy a secret from his wife.
When the football player was away with his team, Goodman texted Kilner telling her she was expecting a second child. Killner, who is expecting her fourth child with the footballer, announced that they are separating after 13 years.
The footballer has moved away and Killer lives with their three sons.
