Lauryn Goodman has accused Kyle Walker of downplaying their "long-standing, intimate, loving and affectionate relationship."
A spokesperson for Lauryn, who shares two children with the Manchester City right-back, said the reality TV star has a "dramatically different" recollection of her time with the soon-to-be dad-of-six, 33, following his recent bombshell claims.
Lauryn has even gone as far to refresh her memory of their past romance by re-reading old texts from Kyle and concluded that the England international is sharing a "deluded version of events" with the public.
Kyle, who lifted the lid on his personal life in a candid interview over the weekend, has repeatedly denied having a meaningful relationship with Lauryn, despite fathering the Instagram model's two young children.

Annie is mother to three of Kyle's five young children and is currently pregnant with their fourth, due to arrive in a few months time.

Annie, who met Kyle in their hometown of Sheffield when she was 15 and he 17, is thought to have split from Kyle over the Christmas period, after learning her husband had fathered another child with Lauryn. Annie was already aware that Kyle was father to Lauryn's son Kairo Walker, born April 2020, but only recently discovered her estranged husband and Lauryn welcomed a daughter into the world in August last year.
Speaking in an interview on Sunday, Kyle apologised to long-suffering wife Annie, calling her his "soulmate", and took full responsibility for his actions. But he also made some pointed comments about Lauryn, denying they ever had a relationship and stating they were just friends before conceiving two children together.
Lauryn is very aware of Kyle's latest interview, with a spokesperson for the mum-of-two today saying: "While she does not want to get into the details of everything he has said at this stage, she is disappointed by his deluded version of events - which is dramatically different to her own recollection of their long-standing, intimate, loving and affectionate relationship. Having read back through many years of messages sent between them to assure herself that her memory is accurate, she is confused as to how he has seemingly forgotten their many highly personal conversations and memories made with their children as a family."
The spokesperson continues to tell the MailOnline that Kyle's version of events being presented to the public is "not the reality" and accuses the footballer of using his "wealth and influence" to hire a top public relations firm and "conduct interviews depicting a narrative which is simply untrue."
After announcing her split from Kyle on Instagram on 10th January, Annie enlisted the services of top PR specialist Rachel Monk. Interestingly, Annie's estranged husband Kyle has also hired Miss Monk to handle the scandal and added the PR consultant to his team of publicists.
In his tell-all interview over the weekend, Kyle admitting to know Lauryn for over a decade but claimed things didn't turn romantic until a few years ago. He said: "I'm 33 now, that's a good nine years before there has been anything of the sort. After that there was nothing of the sort. To have a relationship with someone ... would she even know how many sugars I have in my coffee, if I have sugars? She couldn't tell you. Lauryn had me trapped in a corner from October when she told me about a second child. She would ask me to jump and I would say, 'How high?'."
In the same chat, Kyle remembers "almost fainting" after finding out Lauryn was expecting their second child together at the end of 2022. Despite this, he managed to stay focused on his football career and kept performing well on the pitch for Manchester City and England. He explained that playing football was his escape from his personal issues during Lauryn's second pregnancy and remembered how match days let him spend a few hours on the pitch without having to check his phone or "listen to demands from a certain someone."

She shared a post about pathological narcissists before seemingly dismissing Kyle's claim that she doesn't know how he likes his coffee - revealing that the 33-year-old favours a flat white when it comes to getting his caffeine fix.
Annie, who is expecting her fourth baby with Kyle, hasn't yet said anything about his interview. The pregnant WAG announced her split from Kyle on her Instagram Stories on 10th January, telling her fans: "I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight."
She added: "Sadly, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together; I have decided to take some time away from Kyle. I do not wish to comment on the position any further. For now, I ask that the privacy of myself and our three young children is respected during this difficult time."
