Kilner took Walker back and the pair tied the knot the following year.

She wrote: "I am posting this in response to growing recent media enquiries about my marriage to Kyle and in an effort to protect my family against the intensity of the media spotlight.
"Sadly, after many years of marriage and three wonderful children together; I have decided to take some time away from Kyle.
"I do not wish to comment on the position any further.
"For now, I ask that the privacy of myself and our three young children is respected during this difficult time."
Walker waited until Friday afternoon before he broke his silence.
The 33-year-old has posted a message on his Instagram story, where he apologised for his actions.
Walker wrote: "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."
The Sun claims Walker has moved out of their £2.4million mansion.
Back in 2020, Kilner revealed how the former Tottenham star 'begged' her to take him back following his affair with Goodmam.
She said: "He begged me to take him back but by July he was at it again.
