Annie Kilner will continue to support her husband Kyle Walker at his upcoming England matches, refusing to allow Lauryn Goodman dictate her or her children’s actions.

The 33-year-old mother of four returned to Manchester after seeing England’s first match against Serbia in Germany on Sunday evening.

Lauren was seen playing football with her children, who she shares with Kyle, and dressed them in their father’s number 2 shirt to celebrate Father’s Day.

Annie Kilner, 33, will continue to support husband Kyle Walker during the Euros, refusing to allow Lauryn Goodman ‘dictate her or her children’s activities.

The influencer, 33, was embroiled in a paternity issue earlier this year when it was revealed that Kyle fathered her ten-month-old 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 while married to Annie.

According to Annie’s source, the WAG was not surprised by the photographs but would not let Lauryn impact her or her family.

Annie’s appearance at the match came after Lauryn was seen playing football with her children, who she shares with Kyle, as she dressed them in their dad’s number 2 shirt to mark Father’s Day

They explained: ‘Annie flew out to Germany to support Kyle and the team and will continue to do so.

‘England matches are at the forefront of the country’s mind and Annie and the boys stand behind the boys and want as little distraction off the pitch as possible so as to give the boy the best chance of bringing home the trophy.

‘She has and well never let Lauryn will not dictate her and her children’s movements and wasn’t surprised to see these new pictures – which she predicted would happen a couple of months ago, she thinks these new set up pap pics, on the day of the first match and, coincidentally, fathers day are a sad attempt at staying relevant.

‘The fact innocent children are being used in the public spat is saddening.’

They added: ‘She doesn’t pay much attention to the noise around her and her husband’s marriage and is working privately with Kyle to navigate the office pitch issues.

‘Being in the public eye is something they understand due to Kyle’s role in football so she just gets on with it, always with her children at the forefront of her mind.’

Annie and Kyle have four sons, Rezon, two months, Roman, eleven, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five, and the entire family attended the match on Sunday.

Friends told MailOnline: ‘She has and well never let Lauryn will not dictate her and her children’s movements and wasn’t surprised to see these new pictures’

‘Bringing them to matches is something they’ve been a part of their whole lives and nothing will change that.

‘Kyle remains locked down at England camp and geared up in doing his absolute best to help the team bring home the trophy. He’s a hugely valued member of the squad and proud of his role as Vice Captain.’

A Spokesperson for Kyle and Annie said: ‘Kyle is purely focused on bringing home the trophy for the millions of fans watching at home and in the stadium. He will not be distracted by any off pitch activity.’

Annie has apparently vowed ‘not to play happy families’ with her husband in Germany, while he plays for the England squad in the tournament.

The mother of four has instead opted for £35,000 return flights on a private plane, to jet in for each game rather than staying in the country for the duration.

Annie’s flight was pictured landing back home on Monday, as she stuck to her word and only stayed in the country long enough to watch the game with their four sons.

Relations between the couple are said to be at an ‘all time low’ with the couple barely speaking. In an effort to to reconcile their differences the Manchester City and England footballer temporarily returned to live in the family home in Cheshire.

Before the tournament kicked off, Kyle was back in a £20,000 per month mansion he rented nearby when their marriage initially hit the rocks earlier this year.

On Sunday, Annie was spotted sitting in the stands with Kyle, 34, after the Three Lions’ 1-0 victory against Serbia during their first game tournament so far.

Annie previously decided not to fly as part of the official WAGs group to the Euros because she does not want to put on a pretence, MailOnline revealed.

She instead planned to hire a private jet and fly in and out for each of England’s games in Germany with the children she shares with Kyle.

Her decision to travel to Germany was also influenced after Walker’s ex-lover Lauryn raised the prospect of attending the tournament with their two children.

Instagram influencer Lauryn is the mother to Walker’s son Kairo, four, and daughter, who is known to family and friends as KW and is ten months old.

Annie discovered last December that Walker had fathered a second child with another woman, leading to a breakdown in their marriage
