Kyle Walker's wife Annie Kilner issues statement announcing split from Man City star after two years of marriage

Premier League

Fulham

Manchester City

The pair first met in their home city of Sheffield when Walker was 17 and Kilner was 15. They married in November 2021 after a 12-year relationship, but are now heading their separate ways. That decision has been taken following <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/manchester-city-kyle-walker-allegedly-exposes-himself-in-bar-paws-woman-breasts-shocking-cctv/blt0e3f46eeb7b68c5a" target="_blank">a number of scandals involving Walker and other women</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Kilner has said in a post on her Instagram account: “I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight. Sadly, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together; I have decided to take some time away from Kyle. I do not wish to comment on the position any further. For now, I ask that the privacy of myself and our three young children is respected during this difficult time.”<picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltbbb3934080c57c5d/walker_wife.jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltbbb3934080c57c5d/walker_wife.jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltbbb3934080c57c5d/walker_wife.jpg?format=jpg" alt="Kyle Walker wife Annie Kilner statement" data-source="Instagram" data-copyright="Instagram" perform:prop="uuid:bltbbb3934080c57c5d;width:453;height:712"></picture>

WHAT KILNER SAID

Kilner previously left Walker back in 2019, after Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown claimed to have romped with the England international in his Bentley. The City full-back eventually earned Kilner’s trust once more, only to then see Instagram influencer Lauryn Goodman reveal that she was carrying Walker’s child.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Walker has been on Manchester City’s books since 2017 - taking in 280 appearances for the club while winning Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League honours – with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/kyle-walker-explains-rejected-bayern-munich-stay-at-man-city-new-contract-imminent/bltcd36142868b55395" target="_blank">a new contract agreed in September 2023</a> after being heavily linked with a move to join international team-mate Harry Kane at Bayern Munich.
