Lauryn Goodman defends Dave Grohl after he fathered secret love youngster

Lauryn Goodman has defended Dave Grohl after he admitted to fathering a child ‘outside of his marriage’. 

It’s hardly surprising the TV personality, 33, had thoughts on the matter, having welcomed two children with married footballer Kyle Walker. 

Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, Lauryn revealed that several of her followers had sent her Dave’s post, which read: ‘I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. 

‘I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.

‘We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.’ 

Praising his choice of wording, she wrote: ‘He’s putting all his children first with or without an ultimatum. What a lovely worded statement.’ 

Dave has been married to director Jordyn Blum since 2003 and they have daughters Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10, together. 

Jordyn has not commented publicly on her husband’s infidelity. Since the announcement his two older daughters both took down their social media accounts.

In January, Lauryn’s ex Kyle was embroiled in a paternity scandal when he was dramatically revealed as the father of Lauryn’s second child, 13-month-old Kinara, four years after they welcomed a son, Kairo.

At the time he was expecting his fourth child with wife Annie Kilner.  

Breaking his silence on the scandal in an Instagram post, the Manchester City star shared: ‘Annie is an amazing woman and I can only apologise for the upset I’ve caused her.

‘She’s 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 all of our family, and especially our young children, whilst we work through these difficult times.’

In the months that have followed the exes have been caught in a bitter feud. 

Last week, Lauryn appeared to take another swipe at Kyle with a cryptic post. 

She shared the statement: ‘You are allowed to talk about what they did to you and how it hurt you.

‘It does not matter how they feel about you talking about it because if they wanted people to think better of them, they should have been better. My page is for you’

Lauryn wrote on top of the post: ‘For anyone that needs it. Goodnight everyone.’ 

She shared the post days after leaking messages she alleged were between herself and Kyle discussing their daughter’s paternity.

This week she shared screenshots of WhatsApp messages that she claims are from Kyle, appearing to show he wanted to keep the paternity of their daughter a secret.

Alongside the messages, Lauryn wrote: ‘The DNA comments I’m seeing. He [Kyle] always knew his babies with me were his. DNAs are legal tactics.

‘We sorted the house before she was even born. He wouldn’t do that if he didn’t know for certain she wasn’t his.’

One message, believed to be from Kyle, reads: ‘Ok I believe u and u haven’t told her it’s mine’.

Lauryn responds: ‘She knows it’s yours 100% she said I know it’s his I know you didn’t [blank].’

Another of the screenshots that Lauryn alleges are from Kyle reads: ‘Sorry don’t want to course [cause] stress just keeping u in the loop.

‘On everything and what’s been said about you etc.

‘If you have and deny then fine where [were] ok and we plan for the future.

‘What’s going to happen just at this time it’s not good to come out because it’s just a s*** show with my actions and that need to blow away’ 

Kyle shares children Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, Reign, five, and five-month-old baby Rezon with wife Annie.

A source close to Kyle said: ‘Kyle was advised to take a DNA test by his legal team to confirm the paternity of the child. He has always maintained responsibility for the children financially.

‘He keeps his own four boys out of and protected from the media spotlight and is saddened that the other children impacted in this situation are being dragged into the public spat continuously. 

‘Kyle didn’t want it all to be public, this was due to the huge press interest and subsequent media campaigns often led by Lauryn Goodman.’

The affair began when Lauryn met Kyle in 2019, when he was on a break from Annie. 

Despite his infidelity and the birth of son Kairo, Kyle and Annie stayed together in Cheshire while Lauryn raised her son hundreds of miles away in Brighton.

Then, last December, it was revealed that the daughter Lauryn had given birth to last summer was also Kyle’s. 

Annie threw Kyle out of their family home in Prestbury, Cheshire, and he moved into in a nearby apartment. 

However, after Annie gave birth to a fourth son in April, they have begun to mend their marriage, reportedly on the condition that Kyle cut off all contact with Lauryn and their children.

Meanwhile, Lauryn is bringing up her children up as a single mum at a £2.4million house in Hove, East Sussex, which Kyle bought for them as part of his maintenance commitments.
