Lauryn Goodman’s unexpected career change and celeb pal she’s roped in to help in her ‘desperation for fame’

LAURYN Goodman seems to be taking her career in an unexpected new direction, with insiders saying she’s keen to keep herself in the spotlight.

Embracing a new-age hippy persona on social media, the 33-year-old proudly presents herself as an “Earth mother” to her two kids she shares with love rat Kyle Walker.

And now after her attempt to set up home with her former lover Manchester City and England defender Kyle Walker failed, Lauryn allegedly is “desperate for the limelight.”

Last week, The Sun Newspaper exclusively revealed that she was seen partying with England goalkeeper Jordan Pickforward and teammates. 

An onlooker said that Jordan was downing “shot after shot” after buying the drinks for team-mates and Lauryn at upmarket hotspot Bagatelle in Mayfair, West London.

Now, sources close to her say that the TV personality has changed her way of working in a “desperate” bid to boost her career.

Insiders told the Mail Online that she “recently employed a new agent to help get her work” as she “really wants to appear on a reality show.”

In fact, Lauryn, who previously appeared on Celebs Go Dating, has allegedly already set close pal and former glamour model Nicole McLean “the task of getting her on Celebrity Big Brother this year.”  

The source said: “She always says she doesn’t want her children to be forgotten but given her determination to be on TV, you have to wonder if she is the one who is desperate for the limelight, the fame and, frankly, to always be connected to Kyle. 

“Many women would just enjoy life and riches with their children.” 

Earlier this year, Kyle – who has four children with his ex-wife Annie – was reportedly “shocked” when she filed for divorce.

Lauryn has previously expressed her desire to mend fences with Kyle following their highly publicised feud, which included a court battle.

She shared: “I truly hope we can move forward and focus on what’s best for all the children. 

“I believe bridges can be rebuilt for Kairo and Kinara’s sake. Life is too short, and we’re connected through these two amazing kids we’ve brought into the world.”

But Lauryn and Kyle’s latest spat was over a doorbell at her £2.4 million home, which he helps maintain. 

When the fancy intercom system stopped working, she was given a Ring Doorbell as a quick fix.

But Lauryn insisted the cheaper alternative would not provide the peace of mind she needs for her family.

A source told The Sun: “She got in touch with Kyle’s property manager and asked if they could have [her security system] fixed.

“They told her no and instead offered a Ring Doorbell system, which doesn’t have nearly the same level of security and won’t open the gate. She’s angry.”

But a source close to Walker said: “As per the court order all housing issues are made directly to what is essentially the temporary landlord who deals with requests from Lauryn.

“Should Lauryn have any issues she knows to ask the landlord to raise it with Kyle should they not be able to come to an agreement.

“Kyle is completely unaware of any issues Lauryn has with the property and would urge her to follow the procedures put in place by the court which protect her and the children.”
