Pickford ‘downs shots and parties in the same bar as Walker’s ex Lauryn’

Jordan Pickford was spotted 'shot after shot' in the same bar as Lauryn Goodman and his friends during a wild night out.

An onlooker said the 30-year-old England goalkeeper, who has two children with wife Megan Davison, was doing 'slammer after slammer'.

He bought drinks for his teammates and reportedly Kyle Walker's ex Lauryn, 33, at the opulent Bagatelle in Mayfair, west London.

Kyle, 34, who plays for England alongside Jordan, shares four children with his wife Annie Kilner. He had an affair with Lauryn and fathered a son with her, Kairo, four, and a daughter, Kinara, who was 16 months old.

An onlooker told The Sun: 'Jordan's Mrs. Megan might not be very happy to know Jordan was partying next to Lauryn, given her track record with Kyle.

“Megan also knows Annie from competing in England, so it was funny to see him buying shots for people at Bagatelle, including Lauryn.”

The group later moved to Mistress of Mayfair, where Jordan continued to buy drinks for the group.

The onlooker added: 'Jordan was the life and soul of the party, splashing the cash, slammer after slammer.'

However, a second source said: “Jordan had no idea the shots he bought were consumed by Lauryn. When the players realized she was there, they asked security to move her.”

MailOnline has contacted Jordan and Lauryn's representatives for comment.

It comes after Lauryn defended her children's father Kyle in a series of Instagram stories on Thursday after he suffered vile racist abuse – but added that she 'wished he had the same compassion for his children'.

On Thursday afternoon, after a Champions League match against Juventus, Kyle took to Instagram to reveal the contents of a shocking message he received on the platform.

He added the caption: “No one should ever be subjected to the kind of vile, racist and threatening abuse I have received online since last night's match.

'@instagram and the authorities must prevent this for the sake of everyone who suffers this abuse. It is never acceptable.

“To our fans, we will continue to work as a team to do better, improve and come around the corner together.”

City's captain played the full 90 minutes in the defeat, which leaves the former champions in 22nd place and facing a battle to reach the next round.

Following Kyle's shocking post, Lauryn took to her Instagram Stories to support the footballer, labeling the “despicable racist abuse” as “horrendous.”

However, she added that she “wishes he had the same compassion for his two children who he abandoned after having a relationship with them.”

Lauryn wrote: “I just saw the horrible racist abuse the father of my children suffered. It's disgusting and there is no place for racism in this world.

“It saddens me to see myself raising our two biracial children without their inheritance.”

In a second story, she added: “While my heart goes out to Kyle for the abuse he has been subjected to, I wish he had the same compassion for his two children who he abandoned after being in a relationship with them had.

“Especially now that Kyle knows how much influence Kairo has, it no longer surprises me how the industry has swept this under the rug because he can kick a ball 'good'.”

The mother later shared a message of support from a fan, saying: 'Exactly what I thought when I read about it. Yes, the comments are terrible, but what about his children who he abandoned?”

Lauryn added, “I'm leaving this here tonight, but those are exactly my thoughts. It's a shame'.

She then shared a few more messages she received from followers who agreed with her stance.

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Kyle Walker for comment.

Following Kyle's post, Manchester City issued a statement saying: 'Manchester City strongly condemns the racist abuse Kyle Walker was subjected to online following last night's match.

“We refuse to tolerate any form of discrimination, whether in stadiums or online.

“We will offer Kyle our full support following the disgusting treatment he has suffered.”

Lauryn's public display of defense comes after she shared her hopes to “build bridges” with Kyle and “do good for all kids” in a new interview on Tuesday.

The TV personality spoke candidly about her “very difficult” year since, amid the paternity scandal and the public criticism that followed.

Reflecting on the year, Lauryn explained in an interview with Closer, “I'm hopeful that their father will come back to them and continue to build his relationship with them. I hope for Kyle's sake it's sooner rather than later, because Kairo is starting to understand now.

“I always say that daddy is busy playing football, but he doesn't believe my excuses anymore.”

“I hope we can all just move on and do what's right for all children. I have faith and hope that bridges will be built for the sake of Kairo and Kinara, because at the end of the day we have two wonderful children together and life is just too short.”

Meanwhile, mother-of-four Annie last month instructed lawyers to start legal proceedings as she prepares to battle for half of the Manchester City defender's £27million fortune.

Annie has said that she “just can't forgive him for what he did to her.”

The couple split last December after it was revealed that Kyle had fathered his second child with Lauryn, who texted Annie to reveal the news.

MailOnline understands Kyle has moved back to their family home in Cheshire, but not to Annie's bedside.

The footballer, who earns an estimated £175,000 a week, is said to have slept separately from Annie in a room on the third floor of the house.

As their tumultuous relationship reached a new low, a source told MailOnline: 'Things are as bad between them as they have ever been. It wasn't like a normal marriage.

'They hardly spoke to each other. She divorces Kyle because she just can't forgive him for what he did to her. She can't get over it. She tried.'

They added: “Kyle seems to have accepted that it's over. He has been happier in the last week. As if the weight of the world has fallen from his shoulders.'

Childhood sweethearts Kyle and Annie met as teenagers in Sheffield, but the footballer has been embroiled in a series of sex scandals over the years.

It comes at a time when the ongoing war and paternity scandal shows no signs of stopping, as Lauryn continues to talk about it on her podcast.

Last month, she responded to accusations from fans commenting on Annie's social media that she is “brainwashing” the children she shares with Walker.

On her Yours Sincerely podcast, Lauryn revealed that a fan told her that Annie “liked” negative comments about Lauryn and her children — despite also routinely liking many of her followers' comments.

She told co-host Lisa Andrews: 'I got a message today saying that her page is being liked in comments about me apparently brainwashing my children. Can we touch that?

“Come on, what am I brainwashing my kid about?”

She turned to Lisa and asked, “Have I ever… You're here, and you're around me so often. I'm not bringing up his father [Kyle] it [Kairo]I?

While Lisa confirmed that Lauryn “never” mentions her ex in front of her son, the Celebs Go Dating star continued, “We literally move on with our lives. We are a small family unit.

“I just think it's crazy that people think I'm just sitting there trying to get him to rehearse things or something. What good would that do for my child? What matters to me is how my child will feel in the future.

“These are things that his father will have to deal with in the future because Kairo and Kinara will 100% want to ask him some questions.

“And unfortunately I don't think the answers he'll give will be good enough because they can see through him and that's my personal opinion.”

A source told MailOnline at the time: 'Annie gets thousands of comments and likes of overwhelming support and she often goes through and likes a few to show fans she appreciates their messages.

“But neither Annie nor Kyle would ever want to involve children in what Lauren has turned into a public circus with her weekly podcast. Annie and Kyle are trying to move on with their lives and wish Lauryn would do the same.”
