Lauryn Goodman may have been told to never contact Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker again, but it seems she’s not prepared to listen. While a judge ruled heavily in Kyle’s favour last month when the two faced off in court over a child maintenance case, it’s claimed Lauryn isn’t planning to walk away quietly, forcing Annie to consider legal action – with Coleen Rooney on hand to help.
“All of Annie’s friends and family thought Lauryn might disappear after the judge’s ruling, but it only seems to have angered her more,” we’re told. “Her threats against Annie and Kyle are carrying on and she is refusing to shut up, leaving Annie terrified of what she’s going to do next. People around her have said that the only way to stop her is to take legal action.”
It emerged during the court case that Lauryn had enlisted the help of one of the Walkers’ neighbours to “spy on the couple by recording them in their garden”, so it’s not known what she might have found out. Luckily for Annie – who took husband Kyle back earlier this year, despite finding out he’d had a second baby with Lauryn – there’s another WAG who has won a huge court battle and is more than happy to help her friend take her rival down.
"Coleen has said she will do whatever it takes to help Annie and is happy to build a case against Lauryn,” our insider shares. “She’s seen Rebekah Vardy sticking up for Lauryn, and both Coleen and Annie would love to wipe the smiles off their faces.”
Coleen and Rebekah made global headlines after Coleen alleged Rebekah had sold private stories about her to tabloids in an infamous Instagram post. Rebekah attempted to sue Coleen for libel, but lost the case and was ordered to pay costs adding up to an estimated £3million. We’re told, “Coleen obviously knows how to gather evidence and has offered her services to Annie, as she has seen how much she has suffered. Like all her friends, she wants Annie to be able to move on.”
Rebekah publicly threw her support behind Lauryn last week by commenting under one of her recent Instagram posts. Becky wrote, “The children are beautiful. A credit to you. Irrespective of who did what, people forget – and need to remember – there are two very innocent children that are being openly spoken about in untrue and cruel ways, while the father sits back and allows this to happen! Yet as usual the woman is always to blame. Keep fighting… the truth will prevail.”
And while we’re told Annie, who has four young sons with Kyle, doesn’t want to have to go to court, she’ll stop at nothing to protect her family. “Annie is a very strong woman, but can only take so much, and she has to fight to protect her children,” our source shares. “Going to court would be the last thing she would want as she just wants to move on, but it seems Lauryn will not let it go and is determined to keep slating her on Instagram and agreeing with nasty comments written by followers about Annie. Annie’s neighbour has already given lots of evidence about Lauryn attempting to spy on her, and it sickens everyone to know the lengths Lauryn was willing to go to, to split Annie and Kyle up.
“Coleen knows exactly how it feels to be targeted and, like Annie, she never wanted to go to court, but she wanted to get justice against Becky and wants Annie to do the same. They share a lawyer and Coleen knows how much time it can take to gather evidence, so is willing to help and give Annie as much backing as possible.”
