Kyle Walker is reportedly living with his wife once again after he was given the boot.
The England right back star, 34, was unceremoniously kicked out of the family home at the start of this year when a paternity scandal rocked the footballer. In January, it emerged that Kyle had fathered a second child with former flame and reality TV star Lauryn Goodman, 33.
Manchester City star Kyle eventually confirmed the child – named Kinara – to be his, leading wife Annie Kilner, 32, to demand him to pack his bags. Due to Annie being heavily pregnant with his other child at the time, she was incredibly distraught at the revelation and urged him to leave so she could give birth in a relaxing environment.

Now, pals of the footballing star have confirmed that he is back living at the couple’s family home in Prestbury in Cheshire. According to MailOnline, insiders have said the couple have been back under one roof for around three weeks.
Kyle had been present at the birth of his fourth son Rezon, but the pair had spent the entire summer apart, with Kyle living it up in a luxury flat in Manchester. In July, Kyle and baby mama Lauryn went to court to work on the financial responsibilities for both Kinara and Kairo, their other child.
During proceedings, Lauryn made a number of outlandish claims in order to capitalise on the situation. This included a £500 monthly clean of her jacuzzi, which she insisted only her children used; her claims were mostly dismissed by the presiding judge.
Lauryn has seized the opportunity for coverage in the wake of the scandal, taking Kairo to see his dad play in the Euro 2024 tournament in Germany in July. However, Kyle has insisted he wants nothing to do with the children other than to honour his financial obligations to them.
With Annie and Kyle now living together once again, an insider said that they want to return to some degree of normality. “They both really want to make it work,” the insider said, “their family is the centre of both of their lives.
“They are not sure at this point if they can work it out but they want to give it the best chance of working,” the source added. “The first step in that is him moving back into the house.”
As well as this, the source said that they do not wish their children to come from a broken home, with the couple’s relationship lasting 15 years, which only adds to the desire to stay together. They added that no one is looking for a divorce and the ultimate goal is to raise a happy family together as a duo.
“They are not back together in the sense that all is forgiven and forgotten,” the source revealed. “But they are physically living in the same place and trying to work out a path through it all.”
