Independent of his performance in the Euros, I detest this dreadful man with a passion. He really is detestable and revolting. No I'm not being kind.

Tho imagine being Lauren and admitting to the press he called you Annie’s name during sex 😂😂🙃🙃 💀 that wouldn’t pass my lips.

Look weather Annie leaves to stays she is the victim of having a shitty cheating husband, who cheated with a women who’s like to blame everything on her. He was single and still didn’t want her other than for booty calls now she’s butt hurt with her blogs and insta shade posts.

Annie can’t stop him cheating, annoy can’t make him stay and she couldn’t stop him seeing his other children.

All she can do is stay or leave and sometimes staying is actually better for your children if it can mean you can stop deranged people from being in their lives.

xxSideshowAuntSallyxx · 17/06/2024 09:20

I don't know why Annie gets so much stick, before the tramp you didn't hear anything about her. The tramp comes along and starts selling her wares stories and Annie fights back with a couple of pap shots.

Also if she's been with him since 15, he's all she's ever known. It's probably quite scary the thought of starting again. It was for me at 40 and my ex wasn't my only relationship.

As for him, he's disgusting and should thank his lucky stars Annie hasn't taken him to the cleaners yet. He's also thick as mince, there are several rumours going around that Lauryn wanted a footballer and has been passed around so why he went there not once but twice is anyone's guess.

Cesarina · 17/06/2024 09:17

I repeat that I stand corrected about Walker's wife. I ignorantly assumed she was attracted to him for his wealth, not realising they'd been together since their teens. So I also apologise again.
My disgust was and is directed at him, not the 2 women who are his childrens' mothers.
I still feel there should be no room in an England team for Walker, as, football aside, he is an appalling and disgraceful role model for boys who would love to be famous footballers.

FrancisSeaton · 17/06/2024 09:15

His wife isn't a poor little victim in all this.
She knows what he's like and does the pick me dance each time he starts bringing a new innocent child into the mix. I have no idea why everyone seems to pity her so much she's bringing those children up in such a toxic environment

The management should bar him if that's true.

I just find it actually incredible that anyone would begin to argue that the primary criteria for the England national side should be selected on the basis of moral values

It's the summer of 2024. We're in the semi-final against Germany. England as ever, labour heavily in the second half, and can't score in extra time, so it's penalties.

And yet we can't put out our strongest penalty taker, Ivan Toney, because he was suspended for betting. We can't put out the man who scored the winning penalty for Manchester City in the Super Cup, because he likes to play around and father multiple children.

We might as well not play in tournaments if that's the case.

The pearl clutching and wailing on here is really confounding. He didn't cheat on you?

Or MAYBE people in highly rewarded positions might behave themselves a bit more if there were real world consequences for their appalling actions? Wanking in a spa is criminal behaviour. If i did that, I would face criminal charges and lose my job. You probably would too. Why should he be treated differently?

It’s not really about him cheating on his wife - his sexual incontinence has resulted in two children growing up in an absolutely circus, largely unacknowledged by their father and sold out for cash by their mother. Six children, if you include the children he has with his wife (although they are more protected). The kids don’t deserve that. That’s why I judge him. He’s a cunt. Forgive me if I’m not creaming at the gash like you seem to be over him being able to score a few pens.

I think theyve been together since they were at school, what every first attracted her to him it wasn't money or celebrity

Maybe like Collen she doent know how to be without him

Apologies, thanks for correcting me. I made assumptions based on ignorance.

usernother · 17/06/2024 08:58

@Valhalla17 How naive! She told the paps (having not been seen for a week and it was rumoured they had split up and she was pregnant) she would be at the gym - 8 months pregnant and posed with her jumper and jacket just happening to be lifting up to expose her bump- turned and smiled for the camera.

On two separate occasions.

I'm not at all naive. I know how these things work. I have it on good authority that paps wait around where she goes to the gym (same gym as Colleen Rooney) and take photos. She did not arrange a pap walk.

On two separate occasions.

Same and all the comments in the gutter press seem to excuse him and make out Lauren to be some psycho stalker. Not saying she’s not but I hate the way his behaviour is excused and she’s vilified. He not only humiliated his wife one, but twice. Now can she forgive that? And to insist he doesn’t see the kids, that’s shocking

I dont think he is getting a pass in the press. His personal life is being dragged through the coals weekly if not daily at this stage.

He isn't seeing his kids because he doesn't want to. If his wife couldn't stop him publicly humiliating her several times. Hiring prostitutes. Including a memorial one that involved a certain so called influencer flying to Hong Kong for a personal call. Then impregnating a woman who isnt her twice I'm not sure why she is somehow responsible for that.

He has the money and legal access to see them if he wanted, but in doing so means keeping the batshit crazy mother of his children in his life.

Lauryn was offered for her son to meet Kyle's other kids she rejected it because she insisted on there for it to happen.

At the end of the day there is 6 kids involved in this mess.

This should be rolled out by clubs as an example of how your actions of the field have the potential to completely fuck up your life. It's all easy money, easy access to women and this falsehood that is separate to their actual lifes.

JacquesHarlow · 17/06/2024 08:11

I don't see how this is something worthy of comment?

He is a philanderer. This means his partner has been wronged multiple times.

One mechanism she has in her armour is to put out positive PR stories to show family unity. That is her choice, one I and many others disagree with, but she has access to the mechanisms that allow her to do just that.

I’m commenting on the fact people are suggesting she should be left alone etc, she’s courting the press just as much. These articles are aimed at the other woman. There’s a lot of innocent children involved in this mess

NashvilleQueen · 17/06/2024 08:38

I think it's a bit more than his marital infidelity. There's also the use of prostitutes (during the pandemic) and the exposing himself in a public place at least once.

He can play for his club. That's a matter for them entirely. I do wonder whether England players should be expected to behave by certain standards though.

Also it doesn't really matter how good he is at football. There's not a matrix that says you can get away with worse behaviour because you're better at playing or have harsher sanctions because you're less good.

I'm sorry @Valhalla17 but this kind of pearl clutching comment is really quite ridiculous.

I don't see professional footballers as needing to be paragons of society. I really don't.

In fact I would argue that with the lifestyle they have at a young age, and the fact that some of them come from troubled backgrounds, it is very unlikely they will be paragons.

They need to stay within the law of course, and within the covenants and rules of consent which everyone on here accepts as minimum. I won't name the players here but a former Manchester United forward, now on loan in Spain's La Liga, and a Preston North End striker who was at Sheffield United when charges were brought... these players are rightly cast out of the English game and the national side.

I think Kyle Walker is perhaps in the top 5 players in his footballing position, in the world at the moment. He is brilliant at going forward, he is excellent at recovery and tracking back, his pace is unreal for someone in his 30s.

No I don't want to sleep with him. Yes I think his behaviour is poor, but that's between him, his partner and the woman who keeps calling the paps.

Us judging him will do absolutely f all.

Good luck to him and the England national side.

I don't give a flying fig how good he is. I'm a hugely knowledgeable football fan and youth coach. Unfortunately footballers are looked up to and idolised by many young people. Footballers also generally believed to be a bit sleazy etc due to behaviours we've seen over the many many years of a high number of these players.

Maybe if this disgraceful off-pitch behaviour and poor example had real repercussions, such as not being able to play for country, then these players might actually start to take things seriously, get some morals and lead by example? We might then get a better group of young players making their way through who can be role models. We need more Declan Rice's
.....not more Kyle Walkers in football.

Playing for country is a privilege and I think you do need to be a decent (not perfect) human being, given you are representing England.

Pretty sure this was the papers. Now annonamised. However not really hard to piece together. Back in court next month according to tattle for baby girls revision.

Yes the photos are backgrid, which means they arranged the shoot. Nearly all the photos you see of celebs are backgrid. She doesn’t stay away out of her limelight - when someone is in the press about Lauren there’s a photo of Annie leaving the gym etc, all backgrid of course. Both as bad as each other

It makes me laugh when people say Annie is with him for money.
They've been together since they was kids. Their dads are also old friends possibly childhood friends too.
Most of his business's are in her name. They've four kids together. She doesn't court the limelight like Lauren does. She will always be fine for money with or without himConfused.
And she doesn't show her kids faces which I like.
They are usually blurred out when papped at matches.
She's a nice woman very quiet around here.
Just clearly loves him very much and I doubt she'd ever leave. She's another Colleen. It's a shame.

He should not be in the England team at all. The example he sets young men is disgraceful. Maybe if he'd been sacked from England it would make younger players coming up behave differently and show what is expected of players!
Honestly he makes me sick
