Annie Kilner and footballer husband Kyle Walker have reportedly "never been closer" after confirming they are expecting their fifth child together. The 33-year-old WAG, who already shares four sons - Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, Reign, five, and Rezon, one - with the 35-year-old Burnley defender, is set to give birth in June after announcing her surprise pregnancy to loved ones over the festive period, according to reports.

It comes months after Annie was set to divorce former Manchester City and England player Kyle after he admitted cheating and fathering two children with social media influencer Lauryn Goodman . But it seems the couple have since done a U-turn and are now firmly back on track.

They are said to be hoping for a baby girl to complete their family - and it's thought the latest addition to the family will likely have a name starting with an 'R', just like the rest of their siblings.

And the happy news is said to mark a new chapter for the Walkers, "not only as a couple, but as a family". A source told The Sun : "Kyle and Annie are in such a good place and this baby has brought them even closer together. This baby is already bringing them so much joy, not only as a couple but as a family. Their boys are thrilled.

"Annie is a devoted mum and she is so excited to be bringing another child into the world . For her and Kyle, this baby feels very much like it was meant to be. They've never been closer and they are so excited for their family to grow."

Annie confirmed she was pregnant again on social media - but hit out at not being able to share the news herself. A source had earlier claimed to Mail Online that Annie was keen to have another child to 'complete' their family and strengthen their marriage after years of turmoil following the devastating news husband Kyle had fathered two children with another woman.

This will be the seventh child for Kyle, who is also dad to son Kairo, five, and two-year-old daughter Kinara, who he shares with Lauyrn Goodman. Kyle went on to publicly admit what he'd done and apologise for betraying his 'soulmate' and childhood sweetheart Annie, who he has been since they were both teenagers.

He insisted that he never had a relationship with Lauryn, despite her previously contradicting this claim, but said he has known the model and influencer since his early 20s.

As he desperately tried to win Annie back in January 2024, Kyle said: "What I've done is horrible and I take full responsibility. I made idiot choices and idiot decisions. I can't begin to think or imagine what Annie is going through. I've tried to ask her, but there's pain and hurt.

"The only person to blame is me. I have roles and responsibilities that I'm aware of and I've made stupid choices. But I need to own up to my mistakes — I owe it to everyone," he told The Sun at the time, continuing: "My actions have caused a lot of pain to a lot of people. I'm sorry because, as a family, this isn't meant to happen."
