‘s ex-partner, Lauryn Goodman, is reportedly moving to Italy to be closer to the star.
Walker is still married to childhood sweetheart Annie Kilner despite the pair filing for divorce last year. The former right-back has also fathered two children with Goodman, who has been seen packing boxes into a removal van.
According to , Goodman and her two kids, Kairo and Kinara, are moving abroad to be closer to Walker. The international left City to join Milan on loan last month, and the Italian club have an option to make the move permanent in the summer.
Kilner was at the San Siro to watch Walker make his debut against Inter on Sunday. But reports suggest the pair are ”, and Kilner is expected to remain in the UK due to the school commitments of her and Walker’s four children.
: “Lauryn was happy when Kyle signed for Italy as Saudi would’ve been a bit too far and would feel more final, but Italy was a stone’s throw away.
“It felt a lot closer than her commute to Cheshire with how busy the roads can be. Italy is much more aesthetically pleasing. Lauryn is excited for new adventures with her children.”

Walker and Goodman’s first child was conceived when the footballer was on a break from Kilner in 2019. Walker and Kilner got back together and tied the knot in 2021, but his second child with Goodman was born two years later.
The 34-year-old won six Premier League titles, six domestic cups, a Champions League, a UEFA Supercup and a FIFA Club World Cup during his time at City. But a poor start to this season saw him take the plunge and move to Milan after seven-and-a-half years at the Etihad Stadium.
Walker played every minute of Milan’s 1-1 draw with Inter at the weekend, and followed that up with another full game in the Coppa Italia quarter-final against AS Roma on Wednesday, which the Rossoneri won 3-1.
Milan have a growing contingent of English players in their ranks, with Walker playing in close proximity to right-sided centre-back Fikayo Tomori, who was once on ‘s books. Three Lions international Tammy Abraham plays up front for the Serie A giants, while American star Christian Pulisic is another English-speaking presence in the squad.
