Lauryn Goodman calls for Kyle Walker to make public apology and slams Puma over boots

Lauryn Goodman has lashed out at her ex Kyle Walker and demanded he make a public apology as her outrage towards her former partner continues.

The reality star mum said she furious this week to discover that Manchester City star Kyle had left their boy off a tribute to his children.

Kyle shared a photo of his new football boots on Instagram, showing the names of his three kids with Annie Kilner - Riaan, Reign, and Roman - while the name of his fourth child with son Lauryn was missing.

Fans of Lauryn began to flood Kyle's page with cross messages about the seeming 'snub' before the comments were turned off.

Lauryn has now demanded her former partner issue a public apology and called on sports brand Puma to edit Kyle's boots.

Lauryn claimed Puma were 'condoning' the snub by not pulling the boots and said 'omitting Kairo Walker's name is mentally damaging in a time when mental health matters."

"Puma know this is wrong. HOWEVER, Kyles post still remains," the mum went on.

Lauryn described her son with Walker as an 'innocent baby' and said she feared he would 'see this in the future.'

Lauryn then called upon Kyle to make a public apology to their son Kairo.

"I expect at the very least for Kyle’s post to be removed, the boots to be pulled, a public apology to Kairo Walker, a public statement put out. Going forward if Kyle wants to have his children on his boots he either has them ALL or NONE."

She went on: "Children are meant to look up to a brand. You have been inundated with complaints I have had so many shown to me on DM. I can see them all yet you still sit in silence thinking this will all go away?

"I will fight for my baby boy. I will not have his father who is in the public eye get away with such behaviour," she fired.

The star is a single mum to Kyle's fourth child, welcoming baby Kairo in April 2020.

After announcing her pregnancy, Lauryn shared the shock news that Kyle was the baby's father - with the football star having been in a relationship with teenage sweetheart Annie Kilner for 10 years.

Kyle met Annie when he was 18-year-old and played for his hometown of Sheffield with the pair going on to have three kids together.

Hitting out at her ex for snubbing their child, Lauryn continued to rage: "I have more than enough evidence and you cannot tell me you were not aware of Kairo. He is all over Google and even on Kyle’s wiki page. We have all had a voice. Now we expect to see action. We will not stop. #kairowalker #standupforkairowalker"

Lauryn's sister Chloe also jumped to her nephew's defence.

She posted: "PumaFootball I think you made a mistake with @KyleWalker 2's boots, he has four sons…"

C hloe said it was 'disgraceful' that Kairo might see the boots when he's older and said 'babies are a blessing.'
