Kyle Walker’s spouse and former lover each cheer on England
They have been embroiled in a spectacular WAG war over England’s vice captain.
But yesterday Kyle Walker’s wife Annie Kilner and his former lover Lauryn Goodman both cheered the footballer on from the stands.
And though it may have been one of the few times the women have been in close proximity, Walker must have been relieved they were on opposite sides of the pitch.
Ms Kilner, 31, sat with other WAGs to support her husband. Meanwhile, Ms Goodman, 33, sat in a seperate stand with her grandfather.
Shortly before the game, she was seen outside the Deutcshe Bank Park stadium with her son Kairo, four, the oldest of her two children with Walker.
Kairo wore an England replica top with his father’s number on the back, along with the word ‘Daddy’. It will have been the closest he and Kyle have been for some months.

Ms Goodman flew into Frankfurt under her own steam yesterday morning.
Meanwhile Ms Kilner, who is flying in and out for the games rather than stay in Germany, flew into Frankfurt with some of her fellow footballers’ partners on a £35,000 private jet from Manchester airport.
She was accompanied by her three oldest sons, as she was for the Serbia game on Sunday.
The two women have been at loggerheads for several years after the Manchester City star had a relationship with Ms Goodman while he was with Ms Kilner and it emerged that Kairo was his son.
In December, the fallout was reignited when Ms Kilner learned that Walker, 34, had fathered another of Ms Goodman’s children, a baby girl.
After yesterday’s game, Walker went over to Ms Kilner and their children. But far from a cheerful reconciliation, it seemed neither were in the mood to play happy families.
One onlooker said: ‘It looked a little tense between them. While the result wasn’t ideal, you’d have thought they would have been a little more joyous, at least for their children.’
Among the more cheerful looking WAGs were goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s wife Megan Davison and Aine Kennedy, who is dating Conor Gallagher.
