LAURYN Goodman says she used to "hate" Kyle Walker's wife Annie - and even claims the pair have a "mutual understanding".
The Instagram model, 33, told mum-of-three Annie that the Man City ace had fathered a second child with her.
Walker, 33, already had three children with Annie when in 2020 Lauryn gave birth to their son Kairo.
The England defender then insisted there was never a relationship with the reality star - mother to two of his children - in a bombshell exclusive interview with The Sun.
But she has hit back at Kyle revealing her side of the story on their affair.
Lauryn told : "There was a time when I hated her."

The influencer also says Annie and herself have communicated about the affair and have a "mutual understanding" - a claim pals close to Annie dispute.
She continued: "I won't get into the private conversations I have had with Annie, but she did tell me initially she felt we were both victims of his manipulative and controlling behaviour, and at times we have got along quite well, apologised to one another and had a mutual understanding."
Kyle's tell-all interview made global headlines after he revealed his deep sorrow for the pain caused to his family.
He said he took "full responsibility" and accepted his marriage was all but over.

But he added of Lauryn: "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 retaliated by posting a message on Instagram entitled "The pathological narcissist".
She also replied: "Flat white, no sugars please."
And she insisted they enjoyed a "long-standing, loving relationship".
It comes after friends claimed Annie fears she may go into labour early after the stress of their split.
The former WAG, who dumped Kyle last month, is seven-months pregnant with their fourth child.
They added: "Annie is at breaking point because of the spotlight that has been put on her.
"She is in the final stages of her pregnancy and is terrified about going into labour early.
"Annie is wrestling with her emotions because of her separation from Kyle and is deeply concerned about the impact of all the children involved.

"She feels she can't leave the house now because of the scrutiny and interest in her which she has no desire to be a part of at this time.
"She is being supported by her family and friends but this has all been incredibly traumatic for her."
My move to Munich to escape
KYLE told how he almost followed Harry Kane to Bayern Munich to escape the looming baby scandal.
The defender verbally agreed a reported £15million move to the German champions in July.
He said: "I tried to escape. Did I want to leave City? No, of course I didn't. We're the best team in the world at the minute.
"But it was a chance to get away from England and the media I was going to get.
"I was aware the clock was ticking. I came very close to moving. We were having conversations.
"I was going to a great club, a massive club. But in the end I couldn't go.
"If I'm in Germany and this happens, Annie leaves and I'm now in Germany on my own.
"My kids wouldn't be around the corner where I can see them.
"There's pain and emotion at the moment but I can go to the house, take the kids to school, and my little lad to football."
