Kyle Walker is considering seeking a harassment order against his ex Lauryn Goodman to protect the four young children he has with wife Annie Kilner, friends of the Manchester City star have claimed.
Walker, 34, is fighting to save his marriage to Annie, 32, after fathering not one but two children with ex-lover Goodman.
The mother of two, who was branded “difficult, unreasonable and demanding” by a judge during her child support battle with Walker last month, often attacks her ex and his family on social media for all the world to see.
Walker is now said to be taking matters into his own hands by contacting his lawyers through the posts, a source said. The mirroradding that the star is desperate to protect the four children he has with Annie.
Two law firms have reportedly informed him that he has grounds for taking action and that the footballer is “carefully considering his options”.

In the couple’s child support battle last month, which Goodman lost, the judge accused the reality TV star of using Walker as an “open checkbook.”
Judge Edward Hess also criticized Goodman for deliberately causing distress to Kyle’s wife.
However, since the sentencing, things have only gotten worse for the footballer, according to the source.
“The situation has gotten worse, with stories appearing every day and Lauryn posting regularly on her social media,” the source told The Mirror.
“It’s become impossible for Annie and the kids to ignore it.”
They added: “(Walker) is being advised of his best options, although he really does not want to have to take steps like this.”
A judge called Goodman “difficult, unreasonable and demanding” during her child support battle with Walker last month.
Walker is struggling to save his marriage to Annie after having not one but two children with her ex-lover Goodman.
Walker shares two children with Goodman: four-year-old Kairo and one-year-old Kinara.
Annie had already kicked Walker out of their £3.5million family home in Cheshire after discovering he had fathered a second child with Goodman.
But Walker is said to have been at Annie’s side in April when she gave birth to her fourth child, whom the couple named Rezón.
Annie announced in January that she was taking “some time away” from her marriage, but they are now said to be working through their issues.
A spokeswoman for Kyle Walker declined to comment. MailOnline has contacted Goodman’s representatives for comment.
