Annie Kilner, wife of footballer Kyle Walker, has unveiled a dramatic new look ahead of her family's move to Italy.
The 33-year-old mother-of-four showcased eye-catching long, dark braided hair falling to her waist in recent social media posts.
Kilner, who boasts more than 81,000 Instagram followers, was spotted celebrating a friend's birthday party sporting a sparkly silver bikini top paired with light blue jeans.
She shared the celebrations on social media, captioning one post "Shauna turns 40" and reposting footage from the night out on her Instagram story.

A source told The Sun: "Annie has made it clear to friends she is making the move to Italy for the sake of her family, telling them, 'I'm doing it for the boys.'"
The insider explained the move would help the family escape the "noise surrounding Kyle's sex scandals and drama."

"Getting away from the UK... is what they desperately need. They feel smothered," the source added.
While Annie reportedly still intends to proceed with divorce plans, which Walker won't contest, their continued time together increases the possibility of reconciliation.
The move represents an opportunity for the couple to distance themselves from recent controversies and determine their next steps.
