Lauryn Goodman shares sweet snap of her two children surrounded by Christmas presents as it’s revealed that they ‘didn’t receive any gifts from their dad Kyle Walker’

Lauryn Goodman has shared a heartwarming photo of her children enjoying a pile of presents at Christmas after claiming their father, footballer Kyle Walker, gave them ‘nothing’.

The reality star, 33, posted the image to her Instagram, showing her children Kairo and Kinara approaching a Christmas tree surrounded by a pile of presents.

She wrote: ‘Merry Christmas to you all. The best little day with my babies. It’s all about making memories

“@kairowalker let me put together his new goal outside and @kinarawalker skipped her nap because there’s way too much going on to miss anything.

‘I’m not sure why, but it’s still early… and I’m absolutely devastated. Even more than normal. anyone else?’

She then asked her followers what their favorite part of the day was and whether they ate inside or outside.

She added that she knew Christmas could be lonely for some, so she passed on her love.

Lauryn made no further comment on the alleged absence of Kyle’s contribution, instead focusing on creating a festive atmosphere for her children, sharing snippets of their celebrations with her followers.

She also shared a video of her time in Lapland, Britain, with her two ‘babies’, who she shares with the Manchester City footballer, describing it as a ‘magical day’ that they ‘loved’.

The reports come after sources claim Kyle did not send the two children he shares with Lauryn Christmas presents this year.

The 34-year-old football legend is said to have chosen not to send his children, Kairo and Kinara, any presents for the second year in a row.

An insider told MailOnline: ‘Kyle has previously bought Christmas presents for his children with Lauryn, but things are as tense as ever at his home in Cheshire.

“He prays that Annie will change her mind about their divorce. The only thing Annie wants to maintain control over is for Kyle to stay away from Lauryn and the children they share.

“They certainly weren’t happy families for them this year and Kyle was there a few hours before he left to train and stay at his apartment in Manchester City. ‘

Elsewhere, The sun reported that his decision has caused unrest among mutual friends who hoped he would “put aside his differences.”

The source said: “All their mutual friends have spoken to Kyle. They are very angry with the children and with Lauryn, who always tries to do the right thing for their children.

“They hoped Kyle would put aside his differences for the sake of the children. But to have them do nothing for another year is just really sad.”

Another insider close to Kyle claimed that even though he provides for his children financially, he has never been part of their Christmas celebrations.

Annie kicked Kyle out of the marital home in January this year after learning he had fathered daughter Kinara, his second child with influencer Lauryn.

She let him attend the birth of their fourth son Rezon this spring, and after a harmonious summer vacation with the family, she let him live with them again in September.

Kyle spent time at their home with the kids on Christmas Day, but the couple have not yet fully reconciled.

A source said: ‘It’s been a tough road and they’re up and down. At this point, they don’t know if they can fully reconcile.

‘The ultimate goal is for the children to do well. They don’t know if they will make it as a couple.’

The source added: “When they broke up, they said they would stay united for the kids. The divorce is pending and they are still discussing what the next year could look like for them. They continue to live together.

“Despite everything that has been thrown at them, and not just by Lauryn, they continue amicably. It hasn’t been easy for a number of reasons. However, they have been a couple for 17 years, so there is a lot of history.

‘Kyle clearly has flaws, but he is a very involved father and the children are still very young. They have enormous respect for each other as parents.’

Annie has filed for divorce and a share of Walker’s £27 million fortune because she wants financial security.

However, it is clear that she is not yet taking legal action to dissolve the marriage.

She could opt for a “no-split divorce,” where they would continue to live together and co-parent, but would give her a financial settlement.

The couple have four children Roman, 12, Riaan, eight, Reign, six and baby Rezon.

Kyle’s son Kairo with Lauryn was born in 2020 after an affair, and daughter Kinara in 2023 after Kyle and Lauryn met at a law firm to discuss child support. It is believed he has no contact with the children.

In an interview a few days after the paternity scandal broke, he said: “What I did is terrible and I take full responsibility.”

In June, Annie took the children to Germany to see Walker and his England teammates at the European Championships. After they defeated Spain in the final, he found himself in court for a showdown with Lauryn over money.

A judge accused Lauryn of using his desperation to keep the second child a secret as “leverage” to get what she wanted.

He also found that Lauryn was not a credible witness and that her demands for artificial grass, gardeners and a new car for a babysitter were excessive.

Annie was shocked at how much money had been spent to keep Lauryn Goodman happy.
