Lauryn Goodman looks strained in first sighting since making a cruel dig about ... trends now

Lauryn Goodman looked strained as she was seen for the first time since her ex Kyle Walker welcomed a fourth child with his wife Annie Kilner. 

The TV personality, 33, stepped out in Sussex on Wednesday and was seen looking tense as she took a phone call - while bizarrely clutching another phone in her spare hand.  

Hours before she was on her mobile for another reason - to take a thinly-veiled swipe at her love rival Annie. 

On Tuesday, Lauryn took to Instagram to gush about how 'blessed' she felt having a 'perfect' family consisting of a son and a daughter. 

Days earlier, Annie and Kyle had welcomed their fourth son together. The couple have no daughters and are also parents to Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five.

Lauryn, who found prominence as a result of her younger sister Chloe Goodman - of Ex On The Beach and Celebrity Big Brother fame - looked tense during the phone call. 

She was casually clad in a khaki jumper and purple leggings, accessorising with a baseball cap and colourful Nike trainers. 

Earlier in the week, Lauryn uploaded a graphic to Instagram that read: 'Sometimes a perfect family is just a mum and her kids.'

She captioned the post: 'One of each [pink heart, blue heart]. Their love for one another is perfect. Couldn't be more blessed.

'Little one has changed so much already and Kairo Walker is loosing his baby features as school year approaches. Growing up so fast! [sic]'

The pair are said to be 'overjoyed' at their newborn's safe arrival after Annie found the stress of the past few months 'very difficult.' 

A friend told The Daily Mail's Alison Boshoff that the past few months have been a 'devastating' and 'difficult' time for Annie, who discovered in December – when she was pregnant - that husband Kyle had fathered a second child with Instagram influencer Lauryn. 

He has been living in a rented house away from the family home since January, but the couple have continued to co-parent and are doing their best to rebuild their marriage.

Annie feared that the stress could take its toll on the baby and found the media attention during the latter stages of her pregnancy very difficult.
