Despite his efforts, friends of the Manchester City star are convinced his two-year marriage to Annie, 30, is ‘irretrievable’ after discovering he has fathered two children with Lauryn, 32.

‘It is impossible to see a way back now, the only way forward seems to be a divorce, a very expensive one. You wouldn’t be surprised if she took it to the cleaners.
“It’s terrifying to think how much it could cost him, but it’s a mess and it seems like this is the only way forward now.”
Kyle currently earns £180,000 a week as a Manchester City player, but also has lucrative deals as the face of brands including Puma and boohooMan.
It has also been reported that he is worth a whopping £30 million.
Still, those close to Kyle say there is no going back for him and Annie, with whom he has been in a relationship for thirteen years and is now expecting a fourth child.
MailOnline revealed last week that Annie is pregnant and on Sunday her baby bump was on display as she met her estranged husband in a car park in Cheshire to hand over the couple’s eldest son Roman, 11.
On Monday evening, the footballer took Roman to The Best FIFA Football Awards in London, where father and son were dressed identically.
Kyle was named in the FIFA Men’s World 11 alongside his Manchester City teammates Erling Haaland, Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne.
The England star put on a brave face despite moving from the family’s £2.4million home in Cheshire to a nearby home.

Last week, Walker publicly apologized to Annie for his infidelity.
In a statement he wrote: Annie is a wonderful woman and I can only apologize for the upset I have caused her.
“She has 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 our entire family, and especially our young children, as we work through these difficult times.”
His words came after Annie announced the split last Wednesday.
She wrote on Instagram: ‘I am posting this in response to increasing recent media questions about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family from the intensity of media attention.
Annie announced the split last Wednesday. She wrote: “Unfortunately, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together, I have decided to take some time off from Kyle.”
“Unfortunately, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together, I have decided to take some time away from Kyle.
‘I don’t want to comment further on the situation. For now, I ask that the privacy of myself and our three young children be respected during this difficult time.”
Meanwhile, Lauryn, who accused Kyle of living a ‘double life’, told how she spoke to Annie via FaceTime before going public that Kyle was her daughter’s father.
She has since hit out at the decorated footballer in a tell-all interview with The Sun.
She told the publication: “I told Annie I would keep it quiet, but now that’s impossible after what they did, so I have to speak out.
“In his statement he said ‘our’ children, not all ‘my’ children. They put this there. Kyle had the opportunity here to get all his kids involved, but didn’t.
“He doesn’t think about his children, he thinks about himself.”
She added: ‘I don’t blame myself for their break-up – other women have contacted me and said they’ve been with Kyle too.’
