Lauryn Goodman has insisted she is not ‘desperate’ for love, despite appearing on Celebs Go Dating.
The 33-year-old influencer had an affair with married Manchester City player Kyle Walker, 34, with whom she shares her love story. 13-month-old Kinara and four-year-old Kairo.
The couple became embroiled in a paternity scandal and a lawsuit after it emerged he had fathered a second child with the model while he was still with wife Annie Kilner, prompting Lauryn to respond with mocking comments about the athlete on social media.
In a new interview, Lauryn said the public may be “surprised” to learn that she’s had a fairly modest love life, revealing that she’s actually only had “four partners.”
Speaking to New Magazine amid backlash over her appearance on the E4 dating show, Lauryn said: “Viewers might be surprised. I think people think I’m cheating. Not that there’s anything wrong with that – each to their own – but I wasn’t brought up that way. My dad was very strict when I was younger. Boys weren’t allowed upstairs.
Lauryn Goodman has insisted she is not ‘desperate’ for love despite her appearance on Celebs Go Dating
The 33-year-old influencer had an affair with married Manchester City player Kyle Walker, 34 – with whom she shares 13-month-old Kinara and Kairo, four.
“I’ve had four partners. One was a steady relationship and I lived with him. A couple were household names and a couple were not so household names.”
During the conversation, she said that she doesn’t necessarily crave love. Her children are her priority and she doesn’t need a man to make her ‘complete’.
She shared, “I’m not desperate for it. If it happens, it happens. My children are my everything. They fulfill me. I don’t need someone to come and complete me. It would be an addiction.”
This came after Lauryn criticized her former flame Kyle in a cryptic post on Saturday night.
To go to her instagram stories, she shared a repost about openness, which said, “You are allowed to talk about what they did to you and how it hurt you.
“It doesn’t matter how they feel when you talk about it because if they wanted people to think better of them, they should have been better. My page is for you”
Lauryn wrote at the top of the post: ‘For anyone who needs it. Good night everyone.’
This happened after Lauryn leaked reports in which she and Kyle allegedly discussed the paternity of their daughter.

Last week she shared screenshots of WhatsApp messages she claims were from Kyle, showing he wanted to keep their daughter’s paternity a secret.
Along with the messages, Lauryn wrote: ‘The DNA comments I see. He [Kyle] I always knew the babies I had were his. DNAs are legal tactics.
“We already settled the house before she was even born. He wouldn’t do that if he didn’t know for sure she wasn’t his.”
One of the messages, believed to be from Kyle, reads: “Okay I believe you but you haven’t told her it’s from me yet.”
Lauryn replies, “She knows 100% it’s yours. She said, I know it’s his. I know you don’t know. [blank].
Another screenshot that Lauryn claims is of Kyle reads, “Sorry, I don’t mean to disappoint you. [cause] stress, you just stay informed.

‘What’s going to happen right now is not good to come out because it’s just a show with my actions and that needs to blow away’
Kyle shares children Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, Reign, five, and five-month-old baby Rezon with wife Annie Kilner.
A source close to Kyle said: ‘Kyle was advised by his legal team to take a DNA test to confirm the paternity of the child. He has always retained financial responsibility for the children.
‘He keeps his own four sons out of the media spotlight and regrets that the other children affected by this situation are constantly dragged into the public unrest.
‘Kyle didn’t want it all to be public because of the enormous press interest and subsequent media campaigns, often led by Lauryn Goodman.’
Meanwhile, Kyle denies buying personalized soccer jerseys for the two young children he shares with Lauryn.

When England competed in the European Championship this summer, Lauryn dressed her son Kairo and daughter Kinara in full football kit, while the boys Kyle shares with Annie were also seen at matches wearing his number 2 shirt.
She previously claimed the footballer had bought the kits for Kairo and Kinara, but a source has now told MailOnline that he had not personalised the shirts, but that Lauryn had done it herself.
They explained, “Kyle bought a simple set for Kairo and then Lauryn went and bought another one for Kinara.
“She had them both personalized with Daddy and his number itself. That aspect had nothing to do with Kyle.”
MailOnline has contacted Lauryn’s representative for comment.
