Former Love Island contestant Goodman is mother to two children that were born outside of Walker’s marriage to long-term partner Annie Kilner. Serious strain on that relationship has led to England international Walker having little to do with Kairo and Kinara.

Kairo is, however, fully aware of who his father is and what he does for a living. Goodman has attended Three Lions fixtures at major international tournaments. Her son is hoping to grace such a stage at some point in the future.
WHAT GOODMAN SAID
Goodman told after enjoying a month-long sunshine break in Spain: “Kairo wants to be a footballer when he’s older. He is football crazy. Everything is football from the moment he wakes up to the moment he goes to sleep. He’s had a football camp here in Spain, which has been exciting for him. It’s full-on, but really special.”

It remains to be seen whether said dream is chased in England or abroad, with Goodman admitting that she is still mulling over a family move. She added: “I’ve always felt a pull towards living abroad and Kairo is always asking to move to Dubai – he absolutely loves it there. But as a parent I have to make thoughtful decisions, and I always put my children’s best interests first.”
