Kyle Walker is to face fresh headache from Lauryn Goodman - after she signed up for a dating show at the height of his Euros campaign.

Lauryn is showing the first signs she may be ready to move on from England footballer Kyle, at least when it comes to finding new romance.

The social media influencer, 33, has agreed to appear on the forthcoming series of Celebs Go Dating on E4 where she will be looking for love. But after signing a deal with bosses, the wannabe WAG is also thought to have agreed to discuss her previous footballer fling in detail on the show.

Her appearance on the reality series could also mean fresh pain for Kyle's wife Annie Kilner, who is keen to move on from Kyle's affair with Lauryn which has threatened to end their marriage forever. One TV source claimed Lauryn is "only going on the show to have another dig at Kyle" and it will also keep her in the spotlight.

But a friend close to Lauryn said: "Lauryn going on the show is a big step and shows Kyle and what happened with them is very much in the past. She is looking forward to the dating aspect.

"That said you can guarantee Kyle's ears will be burning when they film the show as his name will no doubt come up plenty of times. Lauren is excited to go on the show and just wants to have some fun, but if she can meet a new man on the TV show or a potential boyfriend that will be a bonus." If she goes ahead with the show, filming would take place later this Summer.

England full back Kyle, who is also 33 and preparing for England's second game at the Euros, has two children with Lauren. He confirmed he was the father of Lauryn's daughter in January, while his wife Annie Kilner was heavily pregnant with their fourth child. He had already fathered son Kairo with the influencer after a short-lived relationship while separated from Annie in 2020.

In January, apologetic Kyle spoke honestly about his personal issues in an interview. At the time he 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."

He added: 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. 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.”

As Kyle tries to move on, single Lauryn could take her children out to the Euros to watch their dad play for England. Reports at the weekend said she may attend an England match in the coming days.

Her son Kairo has the current England kit with 'Daddy' and the number two on the back and has been photographed wearing it in recent weeks.

Since confirming he was father of Lauryn's second child, Manchester City star Walker has been trying to make things up with wife Annie. He was kicked out of the family home for four months but is now back in the £3.5million home in Prestbury, Cheshire. He hopes he and wife Annie can now make a go of things.

For England's first Euro match against Serbia, Annie Kilner arrived by private jet in Germany with three of their four kids - Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five while baby Rezon stayed home.

In February it was reported Lauryn was in talks to front and star in a reality series about wannabe WAGs, following women who have dated or have been married to footballers to tell their story. But Lauryn's appearance on Celebs Go Dating is likely to delay any other TV work.

Last month Lauryn also hinted she could be moving to Dubai in the coming months with her two children. She asked her fans on instagram if Dubai was a good place to live with children.
