Lauryn Goodman's mum takes a swipe at Kyle Walker as she offers daughter advice on the kind of man she should go out with on Celebs Go Dating

Lauryn Goodman's mum took a thinly veiled swipe at Kyle Walker as she offered her daughter some advice on the kind of man she should be dating. 

During Tuesday night's episode the reality star,33,headed for drinks with her mum as she gave her an update on her dating life. 

The past year hasn't been easy for Lauryn after she found herself at the centre of a nasty paternity scandal after she contacted Kyle's wife Annie Kilner to tell her the footballer was the father of her second child,Kinara,as well as the older boy Kairo.

And seeming to hint at Lauryn's tricky relationship with Kyle she said: 'It'd be nice for you to go out with a normal,nice chap for a change. That would be really lovely.'

Earlier in the chat Lauryn told her mum: 'I went on a date with someone from Brighton and he knew the same kind of people that I knew.' 

During an episode of the Channel 4 dating show last week,Lauryn admitted she feels like she is 'constantly going to war for her kids' and that everything is always 'her fault' 

'They are not back together in the sense that all is forgiven and forgotten but they are physically living in the same place and trying to work out a path through it all.'

The source added: 'Before this he was going to the house every night to be there for bedtime with the kids so this is not radically different in some ways but it does feel like a significant step. It would be a push though to say that he and Annie have worked out their issues,as there is still much to be done.'

The saga began in 2020 when Lauryn had her first child,Kairo,with the Man City star and publicly named him as the father. He was kicked out of the marital home for the first time.

A financial application for the son 'painfully and expensively' went through the family courts over two years. Kyle was ordered to buy Lauryn a £1.85million home,though within a 60 mile radius of a Sussex town to prevent her being near his family,and pay £8,000 per month child support.

The footballer also paid more than £600,000 picking up both sides legal costs,cleared £40,000 of the influencer's debts and put over £100,000 in total towards a nanny,furniture and car.

Kyle cut contact with his ex-mistress and moved back in with Annie,with whom he has Roman,11,Riaan,seven,and Reign,five,and Rezon.

But the influencer saw Kyle at his solicitor's office and contact between the two was resumed in October 2022 after Kyle travelled to London. Their second child was born in August 2023.

This summer a court heard that the situation was a 'source of disappointment,anguish and anger' for Lauryn,who threatened to move near his family's Cheshire pile – in breach of the order – and made enquiries with nearby estate agents.
