LAURYN Goodman made a thinly-veiled dig at her ex Kyle Walker after meeting a new love interest on Celebs Go Dating.
Influencer Lauryn, 33, and footballer Kyle, 34, have hit headlines over the years with their very public feud.
The two had a brief fling in 2019, while Kyle was on a break from his now wife Annie Kilner, which resulted in the birth of their son Kairo in April 2020.
Lauryn then gave birth to a baby girl named Kinara in August 2023 – and it was later confirmed that the footballer was the father.
Kyle and Annie, who first got together as teens, tied the knot in 2022.
The couple share four kids and Annie welcomed their fourth earlier this year.
During her experience on the E4 dating show, she has connected with hunk Najee, who has shown her that there “aren’t a**eholes all everywhere”.
It was during last night’s episode that dating agents Paul C Brunson and Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn noted that she’s “grown quite a bit” throughout the process.
Lauryn replied: “Yeah. So I thought like it was there, but it’s just been compounded so much that then I lost sight of it really.
“And I just got into this little bubble and kind of routine and just staying focused to survive and.
“And now you guys have brought me out even to talk to people that obviously I had never met and new people.
“It just kind of shows that there’s a wild out there where there are really nice people and then just aren’t a**eholes all everywhere.”
She went on to share that, while her Celebs Go Dating journey has been about regaining her confidence and reconnecting with her former self, she appreciates the respect Najee has shown her, particularly when discussing personal matters.
On the show, she’s been candid with viewers about how the ordeal’s affected her – even breaking down during a therapy session with the agents.
This week, the Brighton-native also revealed in full the text she sent Kyle’s wife Annie in December last year, informing her Kyle was also the father of her second child.
It read: “Hey it’s lauryn I just wanted to quickly tell you that Kyle is the father of our daughter. He’s been having a relationship with us all including the baby & Ive got everything to prove it.
