Manchester City star Kyle Walker has welcomed a baby boy with his 'estranged' wife Annie Kilner.
The defender held childhood sweetheart Annie's hand at the birth, who is 'doing well' after the birth of her fourth son. Walker, 33, now has six children - after it was revealed earlier this year that he had fathered a second child with Lauryn Goodman, who he had previously fathered a son with in 2019.
Annie, 30, previously announced she had split from Kyle as he shared his regret at the 'idiot decisions' he had made in his marriage. Kyle has reportedly been living away from the family's Cheshire home but are now 'committed on working together'.

On the birth of their new baby, a source told the Sun: "Mum and baby are both happy and healthy. Kyle couldn’t be happier to have four boys and is so proud of Annie.
"He was by her side when she gave birth. It has not been an easy few months for them but Kyle is doing everything he can to support Annie."
A friend added: "But a friend said: “Having their son has made Kyle and Annie think about their relationship and they are committed to working on it together.”
They added: "Having Kyle in the delivery suite was a no-brainer for Annie. While they are still navigating their relationship as a couple, Annie would never stop Kyle from spending time with their children."
Kyle and Annie already share sons Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five. Last month she was there to see Kyle captain England for the first time, as he walked out with their three sons at Wembley before the match against Brazil.
He was injured in that game, but is expected to be in the Manchester City squad for tonight's Champions League
