Kyle Walker’s wife, Annie Kilner, has sparked rumours that she’s moved on from the Manchester City star after being snapped with a new man.
However, it appears there’s nothing more to their relationship that simply being close friends.
Annie dumped the England international earlier this year after he admitted to fathering two children with influencer Lauryn Goodman.
It was recently reported that Annie had filed for divorce from Walker, with the couple set to battle it out over his huge £27million fortune.

Annie raced back to Germany after the fixture to watch Walker in action, with England managing to reach the semi-finals following a dramatic penalty shootout win.
The couple remain separated, however, with Annie serving Walker with divorce papers after saying she ‘cannot forgive’ him for his affair scandals.
