Annie Kilner: Birthday, Age, Children and Kyle Walker

Annie Kilner is the wife of Kyle Walker, the former England right-back who plays for Burnley in 2026. Her birthday is in August, widely given as 10 August 1992, although her own Instagram suggests 1993, which would make her 33 as of November 2026. The couple, together since their teens in Sheffield, have five children, the youngest a daughter born in June 2026.

Their marriage has been one of the most reported in English football: a paternity scandal, a public split in January 2024, a divorce filing later that year and a reconciliation that the birth of their daughter seems to confirm. In this guide, OhMyFootball sets out what is documented about Annie Kilner, what is only reported, and where things stand in November 2026.

Annie Kilner's birthday, age and star sign

Annie Kilner's birthday is in August, and the date given for it on many websites is 10 August 1992. Her birthday itself is well documented: MailOnline reported in August 2024 that the Community Shield on Saturday 10 August fell on "Annie's birthday weekend", which the family spent on the beach in Abersoch, North Wales.

The year is less certain. Some UK press ages fit 1992: OK! magazine gave her age as 27 in June 2020, and the Sheffield Star said she was 30 in December 2022. But that same August 2024 MailOnline report said the barbecue marked her 31st birthday and that Annie referenced it on Instagram with the words "Chapter 31", which points to 1993. The Mirror also called her 33 in August 2026.

That makes Annie Kilner 33 years old as of November 2026 if she was born in 1993, as her own post suggests, or 34 if the often-quoted 1992 is right. Born in August, her zodiac sign is Leo.

Kyle Walker is about three years older. He was born on 28 May 1990 in Sheffield, so he turned 36 in May 2026.

Annie Kilner's height

Annie Kilner's height has never been published by a reliable source. The figure of 165 cm (5 ft 5 in) and a weight of 55 kg that circulate online, including in an earlier version of this article, have no source behind them, so we have removed them.

Who is Annie Kilner?

Annie Kilner is a model and influencer from Sheffield, in South Yorkshire, and the mother of five children with Kyle Walker. According to the Sheffield Star, she has been signed to Mode Model Management and has modelled for fashion catalogues and magazines such as Zoo. She is best known as Walker's partner since their teenage years, but in 2026 she also works with brands on her Instagram account, which has about 84,000 followers. Her grid in 2026 includes collaboration posts with the jewellery label Demure Diamonds, and her bio lists a management contact for enquiries.

She is not a reality TV regular, but she has been on screen: in 2019 she appeared as a guest in ITVBe's The Real Housewives of Cheshire, where her friend Seema Malhotra introduced her to the group.

Did Annie Kilner go on I'm a Celebrity? No. As of November 2026, Annie Kilner has not appeared on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! or Celebrity Big Brother, as far as we could find. In 2024 and 2025 several tabloids reported interest from TV producers. In February 2025 the Daily Mail, cited by GOAL, said she had turned down Celebrity Big Brother and was more interested in I'm a Celebrity or Strictly Come Dancing, but none of those reports led to an appearance. Her only reality TV appearances were as a guest in The Real Housewives of Cheshire in 2019.

We could not find an interview Annie Kilner has given about her marriage. When she has spoken publicly, it has mostly been through statements on her Instagram Stories; most other reports of her reactions to the revelations about Walker's private life come from tabloids, often citing unnamed friends.

Her family keeps out of the news. Annie has not spoken publicly about her parents in any interview or statement we could find. The Sheffield Star has mentioned that she has a sister, Sian, who appeared with the couple in a Halloween photo on Walker's Instagram.

The studio portrait above, in a red dress and diamond jewellery, is one Annie shared on her own Instagram account in February 2026.

How Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker met

Annie and Kyle are childhood sweethearts from Sheffield. A Daily Mail profile in 2018 said they met in Walker's hometown of Sheffield, and LBC has described a 12-year relationship, before they married, that began when they were teenage sweethearts. Accounts of their exact ages when they met differ from one outlet to another, so we do not repeat them.

Their relationship has had breaks. According to LBC, Walker fathered a child with Lauryn Goodman in 2020 during a break in his relationship with Annie. The couple got back together, and in June 2020 OK! magazine reported that Walker had proposed with a ring it valued at £250,000.

Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker's wedding

Annie and Kyle married in a private ceremony at Mottram Hall, a hotel in Cheshire. They never released wedding photos, and reports differ on the date: GOAL, HELLO! and LBC have reported November 2021, while the Sheffield Star said early 2022 and Kyle Walker's English Wikipedia page gives 2022.

Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker's children

Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker have five children together: four sons and a daughter.

Roman, Riaan and Reign, their three eldest sons. Walker has had their names printed on his personalised Puma boots, which he showed on Instagram, according to the Irish Mirror. GOAL gave their ages as 11, 7 and 5 in July 2025.
Rezon, born in April 2024. According to The Sun and GOAL, the couple chose the name to keep the R initial their older sons share.
Wish, their first daughter, born in June 2026. Annie announced the birth on her Instagram Story, writing "Our precious baby girl is here safe", and revealed the name in an Instagram post in August 2026. The Mirror reported her full name as Royal Wish, which keeps the R initial her brothers share.

Walker also has two children with Lauryn Goodman, born in 2020 and 2023. Out of respect for their privacy, we do not name them here.

The Lauryn Goodman paternity case

The hardest chapter of the couple's story began in January 2024, when The Sun revealed that Walker had fathered a second child with Lauryn Goodman, an Instagram influencer. The news came while Annie was pregnant with Rezon.

Walker gave The Sun a long interview at the end of January 2024 in which he apologised to Annie, saying "What I've done is horrible and I take full responsibility" and admitting he had made "idiot choices and idiot decisions". The video below is The Sun's report on that interview.

The matter then went to the family courts. Goodman applied for additional financial support for her two children, and in July 2024 Judge Edward Hess at the Central Family Court rejected most of what she had asked for, according to the PA news agency. He also allowed the judgment to be published with the parents' names, which is unusual in family cases. Walker's spokeswoman welcomed the ruling.

Separation, divorce filing and reconciliation

In January 2024, shortly after the Goodman news broke, Annie announced on Instagram that she and Kyle had split and that she was taking some time away. Walker was with her when Rezon was born in April 2024, according to the Daily Mail, and a month later he carried the baby onto the pitch during Manchester City's title celebrations.

In October 2024, The Sun reported that Annie had filed for divorce and served Walker with the papers, and LBC and other outlets followed. The papers described it as the end of the marriage, but the story changed over the following months. In January 2025 Walker joined AC Milan on loan, and GOAL reported that Annie and the children visited him in Italy. During 2025, several UK outlets, citing friends of the couple, reported that they had reconciled and that the divorce had been shelved. GOAL reported family holidays together in Florida and Ibiza that summer.

Annie looked back on that period in the Instagram carousel above, captioned "Summer 25. The best ever".

In February 2026, after newspapers had reported her pregnancy without the couple's agreement, Annie confirmed it herself on Instagram, writing "We're delighted to be expecting our baby girl." Their daughter was born in June 2026, and a source told The Sun that Walker "didn't leave Annie's side".

Are Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker still together?

Yes, as far as is publicly known. Annie and Kyle are still married as of November 2026: they had their fifth child in June 2026, and no new separation has been reported since. Neither of them has publicly explained what happened to the divorce application filed in 2024.

Annie Kilner's net worth

Annie Kilner's own net worth is not publicly known, and the figures published by celebrity websites have no reliable basis.

Kyle Walker's wealth is better documented. When Annie filed for divorce in 2024, The Sun reported his fortune at around £27 million. His Burnley salary is not public: Capology, a salary estimates website, puts it at about £3.9 million a year before tax for the 2026/27 season, and says its figures are estimates.
