Kyle Walker broke down on Sunday as he admitted to making 'idiot choices and idiot decisions' while fathering a secret child during his marriage to 'best friend' Annie Kilner.

Walker's three-year marriage to Kilner, who he met as a teenager, is in tatters after the Manchester City and England full-back was named as the father of influencer Lauryn Goodman's five-month old daughter.

The footballer had already fathered a son, three year-old Kairo, with Goodman following an earlier separation from Kilner in 2020.

In a rare interview about his personal life, Walker was close to tears as he reflected on moving away from their family home in Cheshire and spending enforced time away from his three children with Kilner, who is currently pregnant with their fourth.
