Annie Kilner and Kyle Walker have welcomed their fifth child together, a baby girl. The former model and Burnley FC star shared the news on Instagram, asking fans to respect their privacy after the news broke before their official announcement.
In a statement, Annie said: 'Our precious baby girl is here safe. Speechless with the amount of love we all feel and the joy she's already brought to our family.' She added: 'Hoping now we have announced our special news, everyone respects our request for privacy as we enjoy these special moments.'
The couple, who met as teenagers in Sheffield, are also parents to Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, Reign, five, and Rezon, one. Kyle is also father to two children with influencer Lauryn Goodman, making him a father of seven in total.
A source told The Sun: 'Kyle and Annie are over the moon to have welcomed a little girl. Kyle didn't leave Annie's side, they are just on cloud nine ready to begin this new chapter.' The couple reportedly informed their families about the pregnancy over Christmas.
Annie revealed in February that they were expecting a girl, their first daughter. The pregnancy has reportedly brought the couple closer, with a source saying: 'Kyle and Annie are in such a good place, and this baby has brought them even closer together.'
Kyle announced his retirement from international football this year, saying: 'Playing for England has always been the greatest honour of my career.' Annie praised his dedication, noting the special moments they shared as a family watching him represent his country.
