Much as I try to advice this kind of ‘news’ it is everywhere atm.

Anyone else reading this news and thinking if he wasn’t a footballer he’d just be a waste of space cock lodger?

I continue to be amazed at what women will tolerate for the sake of money or in the pursuit of fame.

Basically he fathered a child with another woman whilst being married. His wife stood by him. He publicly declared OW was nothing to him. He’s now admitted he’s the father of the OW’s second child. His wife has kicked him out but I wouldn’t be surprised if she takes him back and it seems the OW is doing the pick me dance.

Did you read the court ruling @Vivi0
It's the deliberate monetising of her children that makes her unfit.
Thinking the dad should finance a nanny for £24-35k per year until the child is 18!
Trying to make him pay her historic debts.
Expecting him to pay for designer accessories and holidays and her beauty treatments.
She sees those children as a meal ticket to a more luxurious life and that's what makes her unfit to parent them. That they have their physical needs met, isn't the only criteria for being parented properly!

None of that makes her an unfit parent, though.

If there were any concerns about her being unfit to parent, they would have been flagged by her midwives/health visitors. Social services would be involved.

She may be greedy and entitled, but her children are clearly cared for and having their needs met. Being greedy and entitled doesn’t make someone an unfit parent. It is nowhere near the criteria, thankfully, for adopting out that person’s children!

LadyBird1973 · 18/01/2024 12:06

He was paying £5,000 child support per month (plus other one off payments) and this wasn't enough to support one child? That's more than many families have coming in. And those families are expected to pay their own childcare bills too.

I think LG is an unfit parent. Monetising children is disgusting. Shes lied in order to get pregnant and knowing what an appalling father KW is to her first child, she deliberately had a second. That's putting her desire for KW's money ahead of making good parenting choices.
Those kids would be better off being adopted by a family who don't see them as a meal ticket and who won't be bringing gong them up in the shadow of this complete mess.

The children are clearly cared for - how is she an “unfit parent”?

Children aren’t adopted out to other families because their mother is trying to get maximum child support from their multi-millionaire father, or because their mother “deliberately conceived them with an appalling father”. Neither of the child’s parents are actively neglecting them, or at risk of causing them physical harm. What a batshit comment to make!

@Bella37 maybe the first time but she can't have surely been still claiming to be infertile after having the first baby! Also in the court papers the judge said he could find one line in a brief letter from the GP referring to endometriosis, and caught her out going shopping every day in the week she claimed to be bedridden! I actually do have endo and my doctors notes will be jammed with evidence!

Yes I didn't really think the second pregnancy thing out properly! Obviously it takes 2 but what an awful woman!

@VisionsOfSplendour it was me who shared them the first time 🤣 easier just to reshare than go back through the comments

@lostthelight it's ridiculous isn't it, absolute delusions (not to mention lying about her illness). Done nothing but slag him off for years yet goes back to conceive cash cow number two... and he's just as bad!

Bella37 · 18/01/2024 06:33

Although obviously it doesn’t protect against STD I think he was under the impression she couldn’t have kids due to a gynaecological condition which she regularly documented and also said she was so public with the pregnancy not because of him but because it would give other women with the same condition “hope”.

Bella37 · 18/01/2024 06:27

she can’t be blamed for that though, what sort of a man would chose seeing their own child over being with a woman. If he wanted a relationship with his child he would’ve left his wife if it was her rule. I bet however that ow would make it difficult for him to see the child while he was married and put all silly rules in place like she had to be there all the time and wouldn’t drop her children off to join in with him and his other children and wife, as it seems like she is more interested in him and wrecking the marriage, than her children being part of his family and knowing their siblings and I’m sure she wouldn’t want wife around his illegitimate children etc.

@lostthelight enjoy! You may need a stiff drink afterwards...

Is it me or is she just being ridiculous? £1,500 for beauty treatments, £££ for debts that SHE occurred, designer changing bag/handbag, paying the mother 2 grand (when she lives her) for child minding. This is not about the child. This is about being vindictive. I do not underhand why she had a second child with someone who has publicly stated that he wants nothing to do with his son. It's just sad all around.

Fair play to Lizzie Cundy, she’s kept herself in the spotlight remarkably well after a fairly brief marriage to a middle-of-the-road footballer!

The one thing you can say for Cheryl Cole/Tweedy is that when she found out Ashley was cheating she gave him the boot.

These WAGS could follow suit, not like they won't be set up for life!

Edited

Yes I remember Cheryl dumping Ashley Cole. Huge respect to her for that.

There’s an insta page called ‘Footballersandwags’ - copies of texts, court documents, all sorts

Thank you :)

The only ones I feel sorry for in this whole sorry mess are the DC!

They have half brothers and sisters and their lives will forever be intertwined, whether they like it or not!

Where do you read the court documents from?

As someone who grew up as a deprived WC woman with a father who spent more time in prison that at home, I really dislike the narrative that we're all helpless, naive and unable to make good decisions. I don't want to be seen as a victim in society and don't think it does us any favours. I did silly things in my teen years but I've grown and matured and wouldn't touch a man like Kyle with a barge pole. And I'm not wealthy either!

And that's great. I also have recovered from my childhood and had a good marriage. However some don't. It's down to a lot of factors. Low self esteem, or low expectations can affect any class, as such, but low achievement in every way is more from the lower tiers of society. I don't like the sneering that goes on. It's interesting because on threads like these it's a free for all. Yet on threads we're the marriage will be messing the children up and posters point it out, they attack those posters. It's like only the middle classes can fuck up their kids. Yet the reasons in their cases are often exceptionally selfish.

@Vivi0 Perhaps I’m actually just someone who doesn’t believe in blaming women for the actions of scumbag men.

I'm blaming Goodman for her own actions, not Walker's actions.

Just seen online photos of Kyle and Annie meeting in a car park to hand a child over. Loads of pap shots. What are the chances a pap just happened to be in that car park at that time? I wonder which of the two tipped the press off?

I can't see it being either of them tbh. I agree that it's likely she was followed by the paps.

Lizzie Cuddy married a footballer before the term WAG was invented. That's were women who marry men on high incomes can't win. They'll never earn close and when they do age, even after working they get called washed up (and worse). No she's just aged.

A lot of these women are from deprived WC backgrounds, grew up with a level of abuse in the home etc. They see the women around them live like this, except with very little money. So they change the bit they can, they go for money.
