For the first time, Annie Kilner has used her estranged husband Kyle Walker’s name professionally in her new business venture, despite recent sightings of him with two models in Italy
Kyle Walker’s estranged wife Annie Kilner has left fans stunned by giving a surprise nod to the love rat, using his name professionally for the first time.
The model, 31, branded herself as Annie Walker to promote her new jewellery range, Demure, sparking further speculation about the state of their relationship.
Her Instagram post, shared on Saturday, showed her wearing a diamond bracelet, and read: “Demure. Founded by Annie Walker & Sophie Haynes.”
Sources reveal that this key business move marks a significant thaw in the reportedly frosty relations between Annie and the England and former-Manchester City love rat, 34.
However, tensions are far from over, as just a day after Annie and their four sons visited Kyle in Italy, he was spotted with two models, reigniting the drama and speculation about their fractured relationship.
A source said: “Annie was far from happy and made her feelings clear. Kyle denies anything went on and says he was asked to give the girls a lift.
“He’s clearly put himself in a difficult situation given his reputation. It’s the lack of thought for Annie and how it might look that’s caused the upset.”
Despite the pictures, he and Annie are “in the best position” they have ever been and are said to be working through their issues. Annie using the Walker name professionally has also fuelled talk they are intent on establishing themselves as a brand.
They met when Annie was 15 and tied the knot back in November 2021, but the marriage fell apart after Kyle was exposed for fathering a second child with Lauryn Goodman.
Despite Annie filing for divorce last August, insiders claim it is purely financial and will see her take a large share of his estimated £27million fortune and remain in the same home.
A source added: “Kyle’s move to Italy has given the family time to take stock. Absence makes the heart grow fonder and it’ll either bring them closer together or confirm what many around them have thought for a long time.”
