Lauryn Goodman first shot to prominence as a result of younger sister and Page 3 star Chloe, 30, who has long-tried to forge a career in TV.
Social media star Lauryn, 33, has dominated headlines of late, with married footballer Kyle Walker named as the the father of her five-month-old daughter. The Manchester City right-back has just been dumped by his wife Annie Kilner.
Yet while Lauryn is no stranger to scandal – having famously been caught in a benefits scam – she typically shared the limelight with her siblings.
Along with Chloe and younger sibling Amelia, 25, the trio would often land headlines with pictures of themselves enjoying wild nights out.
Once an inseparable trio, relations have turned frosty between the siblings in recent months, with Chloe and Amelia both unfollowing Lauryn on Instagram and scrubbing any images of her from her account.

In turn, Lauryn has done the same to her younger sisters, who are still said to be close with one another.
It’s a remarkable turn of events given their once ironclad relationship.
Lauryn and Chloe were so close that they lived together in 2020 and helped one another with parenting after they welcomed their first children within weeks of one another.
While Lauryn prepared to raise her child as a single mother, she was supported by Chloe and her footballer fiancé Grant Hall.
Chloe was also by Lauryn’s side in 2019 when she was handed a seven-month suspended sentence and ordered to carry out 200 hours on unpaid work after being found guilty of benefit fraud.
A source told The Sun: ‘Lauryn and Chloe had a bad fall out last year and unfollowed each other then. They haven’t made up since and still haven’t reconnected on social media. It’s really sad as they were so close.’
Chloe’s representative denied to comment. MailOnline has contacted Lauryn.
Chloe found fame when she starred in the inaugural season of Ex On The Beach and caught the eye of TV bosses with her epic meltdowns and clashes with Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison prompting her to be snapped up the following year by Celebrity Big Brother.
During her time in the house in 2015 she was groped by fellow housemate Jeremy Jackson – who was ejected from the house for his behaviour and later cautioned by the police.
In the infamous scenes from the series, Chloe was seen running out of the bathroom in tears after heading in to check in on the worse-for-wear Baywatch star after he’d become intoxicated mixing rum and vodka.
She later revealed he had pulled back her robe to indecently expose her and she then felt unsafe living in the house.
Jeremy was removed from the house after he attempted to explain himself by announcing: ‘She was in an robe, I’m drunk…
‘I thought she had a bathing suit on underneath. I didn’t touch her body. I made a mistake. I didn’t think she was naked underneath… Curiosity killed the cat.’
He then blamed a combination of ‘innocence and curiosity’, saying he was ‘silly, bold and dumb enough to lift her robe as she was asking me if I was ok… Seemed like flirtation to me.’
Six days later, Chloe became the first housemate to be evicted from the house after a public vote.

Reflecting on her incident with Jeremy, Chloe said on her exit: ‘It affected me because I was really comfortable, you’re in a show that you’ve got security, you’ve got producers, you know you think nothing can touch me in here.
‘Then to feel so secure and safe, then to go… I felt like my kindness was seen as weakness a little bit with Jeremy.’
Despite Chloe’s clear distress at the incident, her sister Lauryn revealed rather than being angry at Jeremy she felt sorry for the Baywatch star
Speaking to New! magazine, she explained: ‘I don’t think he did it on purpose and Chloe is a good judge of character, so I believe he’s just not in the right state of mind.’
During the show housemate Ken Morley – who was also ejected from the house for later using ‘unacceptable language’ – was seen telling Chloe that she should of covered up before telling her she should consider how the incident with Jeremy could affect her in the outside world.
When quizzed on about what she thought about the Coronation Street actor’s comments, Lauryn said: ‘Maybe she should have worn a bra underneath her robe, but she was still covering herself.’
Chloe’s older sibling went on to confess that watching the episode with her family was a ‘horrific’ experience.
‘We were in tears. But we’re coping better now because Chloe’s letting it go and getting stronger,’ she added. ‘But my mum has lost a stone because of all the stress.’
Just a few days after Jeremy’s exit from the famous Elstree compound he was seen on a day out with Lauryn as they grabbed a drink at a café.
Chloe made her TV comeback the following year when she appeared on the All Stars edition of Ex On The Beach, but was ejected following a series of aggressive arguments with Stephen Bear.
After taking a step back from television, Chloe met footballer fiancé Grant.
She met the Queen’s Park Rangers defender after he bought a house next to her father and got engaged in 2020, three months before their daughter Isla was born.
They welcomed son Hudson in February 2022.

Chloe and Lauryn’s sister Amelia, 25, (centre) has not featured heavily in the public eye but in 2018 she was rumoured to be joining the Love Island lineup
Prior to welcoming her first child, Chloe enjoyed several nights on the town with Lauryn and younger sister Amelia.
Amelia, 25, has not featured heavily in the public eye but in 2018 she was rumoured to be joining the Love Island lineup.
She did not appear on the show and has not chased fame, instead working at an Aesthetic & Beauty clinic located in Brighton.
Meanwhile, Lauryn’s first solo foray into the spotlight came as a result of her highly publicised benefit scam.
Hove Crown Court was told Lauryn had lied when she had filled in application forms for income support and housing benefit.
She was handed a seven-month suspended sentence and ordered to carry out 200 hours on unpaid work.
She claimed £21,007.76 but did not tell the the Department for Work and Pensions that she had other income from an insurance policy, several different bank accounts and a joint mortgage with her mother on a house in Portslade, Brighton.
The court heard she wrongly claimed the money between December 2013 to December 2016.
The court heard Lauryn had paid back the entire £21,007.76 prior to the hearing.
At the time, Lauryn was dating Marcus Rashford’s brother Dane.
Her next high profile romance came to light in 2020 when she revealed she was expecting a ‘miracle baby’ with England footballer Kyle – who is married.
She conceived son Kairo, now three, with the footballer after they embarked on a brief romance during his temporary split from Annie in 2019.
Lauryn announced her first pregnancy in January 2020, but initially kept the father’s identity a closely guarded secret, before revealing that Kyle is the dad
The media personality announced her pregnancy in January 2020, but initially kept the father’s identity a closely guarded secret, before revealing that Kyle is the dad.
After being probed about why she made his name public, Lauryn insisted it was to put the focus firmly back on her fertility issues and to detract from constant speculation about her unborn child’s paternity.
Lauryn was previously told she was unlikely to conceive due to suffering from endometriosis, an often painful disorder in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus – the endometrium – grows outside the uterus.
Asked whether Kyle would be involved with raising her child during an interview with Victoria Derbyshire, Lauryn was keen to change the subject.
‘Me and Kyle are keeping things private in terms of our child and I want it to remain that way. I’m here to raise awareness.’
She has been raising Kairo as a single mother after Kyle rekindled his relationship with Annie.
Last March, Lauryn revealed she was expecting her second child and proceeded to drop several hints that Kyle is also her youngest child’s parent, including confirming her daughter has the same initials as the footballer.
When she first welcomed her daughter – whose name she has not yet she revealed – she insisted in an Instagram post: ‘Please don’t believe everything you read, had lots of messages yesterday, just to clarify I have not had a baby with “another footballer” as per news articles.
‘I know there is speculation around little ones father and like I’ve stated publicly when the time is right.’
Yet fans were quick to question if she had stressed it wasn’t ‘another’ footballer because Kyle was in fact the father of both children.
After Annie confirmed her split from Kyle on Wednesday, Lauren updated her Instagram bio to reveal that her daughter’s surname begins with W, just as Kyle’s does, writing: ‘Mummy to @kairowalker & KW’.
It took a year for Lauryn to publicly reveal the name of her son but she first hinted at the news when she had a necklace made of his initials ‘KW’.
Lauryn has also been liking a series of comments asking if Manchester City player Kyle is the father to her second child.
In one photo of her daughter she had the slogan ‘I’m A Lion’ on her chest, with questions raised if it was a reference to the England footballer.
The reality star did little to quash speculation as she liked a comment from a fan who wrote: ‘I’m a lion so is five now the magic number’.
Lauryn also liked the comment: ‘I’m actually shook! As Kyle Walker must be the dad with all these clues!! But is he having a relationship with 2 women?! Jeez all the poor kids involved.’
A comment that read: ‘you do realise people can be made to keep quiet, both babies surnames are Walker. Stop being thick’, was also liked by Lauren.
Last month, Lauryn shared a cryptic Instagram post as she revealed she would be ‘taking back control’ of her children’s lives.
Alongside a picture of her two children with their faces obscured, she shared: ‘Starting the new year afresh. Taking back control of our lives. No longer a puppet on a string.
‘We have missed our Insta family with sharing our journey and can’t wait to get back to sharing our daily lives with you all once I’ve explained what i need to. Sorry we left you guys for a bit it’s been a tough ride.’
Fans were quick to point out that her children had similar curly locks and after Lauryn revealed they had not inherited their hair from her, one follower asked: ‘So Kyle is also daughter’s dad ? They are twins look so alike speak your truth don’t let no one try and silence you for money !!! ❤️’
Another fan then shared: ‘Someone on Annie’s [Kilner] page has said who the dad is !!’
Lauryn hit back that it was just someone who ‘thinks they know’, adding: ‘if it’s “Nathan wood” that I’m being sent in my DMs I have no clue who that is. Think people are just stupid at this rate.’
When Lauryn welcomed her daughter in August a source told The Sun on Sunday: ‘Lauryn hasn’t said who the baby’s father is. Her friends think it is a footballer and have asked her outright — but she won’t tell anybody.
‘The baby girl is adorable. Very placid and feeding constantly. She has a huge amount of hair — a full head just like Kairo had when he was born.’
Lauryn’s fans noticed in one photo of her daughter she had ‘I’m A Lion’ on her chest and another with lion emojis – questions were raised if it is a reference to the England footballer
She revealed that her daughter’s surname begins with W, writing in her Instagram bio: ‘Mummy to @kairowalker & KW’
One comment ‘liked’ by Lauryn stated that Kyle ‘must be the dad’
She went on to like comments speculating about the paternity
Others pointed out Lauryn’s repeated Lions references and its relevance to football
Lauryn liked a remark claiming both of her children’s surnames were Walker
Fans also said Lauryn’s children have the ‘same beautiful hair’ with the TV star saying ‘not from those curly locks, mine’s dead straight’
The clues come after Annie announced her separation from footballer husband Kyle after two years of marriage.
The brunette exchanged vows with the Manchester City and England right-back following a 12-year relationship, during which they welcomed three children, Riaan, Roman and Reign.
But in an Instagram post on Wednesday evening, Annie confirmed her separation from the footballer.
She wrote: ‘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.’
It has since emerged the pair were having furious bust-ups over Lauryn before she threw the Manchester City star out of their £2.4million mansion five months ago.
Kyle, who is said to be living in a penthouse flat in Manchester now, was accused of seeing his ex-girlfriend influencer again by Annie, 30, in a series of bitter rows and he finally admitted he had renewed his friendship with her.
The athlete promised never to see her again late last year and in an effort to appease his wife stopped following Lauryn on social media and blocked his former mistress, a source told MailOnline.
But the England star was said to have met Kairo while he had split from Annie for the first time despite his assurances to his wife that he was no longer in contact with Lauryn.
He is also said to have bought her and her children a ‘£2.5m seaside mansion’ in September.
The friend said: ‘This break-up is extremely sad because Kyle and Annie, despite their previous problems and rows, had been doing their best to making a go of it. Things were getting better. This is all very upsetting for Annie.’
The source added: ‘Annie has no time for Lauryn, but she is aware she was staying up in Cheshire for a while a year or so ago. The big question for Annie is whether Kyle met Lauryn during that time she had moved north and whether he has lied to Annie.
‘Annie and Kyle have had a series of rows and Lauryn is generally in the middle of it. None of their friends can really put their finger on the dynamics of the marriage.
‘People are saying lawyers might be getting involved and seeking a settlement. But nobody knows whether there was a pre-nuptial agreement or whether they will get back together in a week or so. They do love each other and are great parents to their sons.’
Locals have revealed that Kyle was thrown out by Annie five months ago after a series of blazing rows.
The couple had a series of heated public arguments in the months leading up to him being thrown out – followed by a flare up at the gates at their mansion in Prestbury, Cheshire, as she refused to let him in.
Since that day, the Man City and England defender has been seen much less frequently and only visits by arrangement.
It is thought he has been staying in a penthouse flat in Manchester city centre. His only visits are occasional ones to visit his three children and to take them out for day trips.
Annie is now believed to live alone in his mansion, which used to be owned by ex-City midfielder Stephen Ireland.
One local said: ‘There were some blazing rows. We don’t see much of Kyle since she threw him out at the end of August.
‘And one time after that they argued over the driveway security fence. He was trying to get back into his house but she wouldn’t let him as she blocked and barricaded the driveway. She was really angry with him and called him all sorts of names.’
Annie and Kyle have had a complicated past and split in 2019 after he was caught in a cheating scandal with reality TV star Laura Brown.
Kyle had reportedly also been caught messaging a Playboy model while on England duty in 2016.

Last year Lauryn accused Kyle’s wife Annie of treating her boy like an ‘outcast‘ and acting like he’s a ‘dirty secret’ after she commented on Kyle’s ‘three sons’ instead of four.
The two women are no stranger to being at loggerheads over Kyle fathering Lauryn’s child.
Last year, Lauryn wrote on Instagram: ‘2023 what a special year, history made. I understand we have skipped a few chapters here…@kairowalker always supporting.’
However, Annie seemingly hit back at Lauryn’s post with a snap of her own, which showed her sons Riaan, Roman and Reign with their dad on the pitch, captioning the snap: ‘3 is the magic number.’
She added: ‘Winning the champions league with Your daddy. All these memories you get to have with your daddy.
‘Nothing and no one will ever take that from you. We’ve got you 3.’
Furious at the post, Lauryn then lashed out at Annie, branding her a ‘wicked stepmother’ who is trying to ‘eradicate’ her son’s ‘existence’.
The spat kicked off following Manchester City’s recent treble victory, with Lauryn sharing a snap of Kairo wearing his father’s team’s kit.
