England and Manchester City star Kyle Walker was today spotted doing the coffee run during a break from his courtroom showdown with ex-lover Lauryn Goodman.
In a major crash back down to reality for the Three Lions defender, Walker was seen stepping out of a Caffé Nero holding a tray of four coffees as he swapped the iconic white England shirt for a smart suit and tie.
It comes less than 48 hours after the England vice-captain started for his country in a Euros final, which ultimately ended in heartbreak as Gareth Southgate‘s men were defeated 2-1 by Spain.
Walker, who shares four children with his wife Annie Kilner, was embroiled in a paternity scandal earlier this year when it emerged that he had fathered a second child with Lauryn.
The married footballer, who was notably wearing his wedding ring at court today, was dramatically revealed as the father of Lauryn’s second child, a girl, four years after they welcomed a son, Kairo.
Arriving at court today, model and influencer Lauryn, 33, ducked under her coat in a bid to hide from the cameras.
Today’s courtroom drama comes as a rude awakening for Walker, who was cheered on by his wife Annie, their four children and an army of England fans in front of a sold-out crowd at Berlin‘s Olympic Stadium for the Euro 2024 final on Sunday.

Lauryn, who attended some of the Euros matches in Germany, stayed at home to watch the final with their two children in the UK. She has previously dressed them up in England shirts with ‘Daddy’ and his kit number 2 on the back.
Walker, 34, flew home from Germany with the rest of the Three Lions squad yesterday after their crushing defeat to Spain.
But the England vice-captain was forced to stay in London last night ahead of the court showdown. He arrived at court in a black Mercedez Benz today.
The ex-lovers’ day in court comes after Lauryn shared Kairo’s heartbreaking reaction to England’s Euros defeat – revealing their son was desperate to call his father.
On his mother’s Instagram Stories, Kairo was heard saying that he ‘didn’t like this’ as Lauryn told him that Spain had clinched the trophy.
The four-year-old said: ‘I don’t want them to win, I don’t want Spain to have won. That’s not kind… can’t I call my dad?’
Lauryn then responded: ‘Oh bub’ and captioned the video: ‘Little man is gutted.’
The influencer and model added: ‘Worrying about the players being sad, bless him. He’s got the sweetest soul.’
Lauryn had also shared a photo of Kairo playing football in the living room wearing an England shirt with ‘Daddy’ and his kit number 2 on the back, while her ex-lover played in one of the biggest matches of his career.

She previously took Kairo to see his dad Kyle play in Germany and received both praise and criticism for her decision.
Lauryn later insisted: ‘There was no way I wasn’t going to take Kairo to the Euros.
‘This could have been his last chance so I wanted it to be something that Kairo could remember forever.
‘We are not here to please other people. It’s about Kairo and what is best for him and what is going to make him happy.
‘I won’t be scapegoated or bullied and made to feel like a villain.’
She also revealed she hadn’t even thought about a chance meeting with Annie in Germany.
She added: ‘I wasn’t fearful at all that I was going to bump into her.
‘It doesn’t cross my mind, I don’t give it a thought at all.
‘I couldn’t care less. I just get on with things.
‘I was there for Kairo, no one else, and if anyone has an issue with it, that’s their problem, not mine.’

Annie discovered that her husband had fathered a second child after Lauryn contacted her over Christmas.
The England ace was kicked out of the family home and has tried to repair the damage since.
In a post on Instagram, he also apologised to his wife, writing: ‘Annie is an amazing woman and I can only apologise for the upset I’ve caused her.
‘She’s been part of my life for so long and that will never change for the sake of our children.
‘I would ask for privacy for all of our family, and especially our young children, whilst we work through these difficult times.’
