Kyle Walker and Annie Kilner are looking to further strengthen their relationship by searching for a new house after it was recently revealed that the pair were staying together - but the relationship is still on the rocks.
Just two weeks ago, a friend close to the couple revealed the pair are “officially back together” after Walker’s affair with Lauryn Goodman ended.
Walker fathered two children with the reality TV star, with his marriage to Kilner seemingly over.
Kilner even opened divorce proceedings earlier this year, however, now their relationship is seemingly going from strength to strength on the surface.

GETTYThe pair jetted off on much-needed holidays to New York, Miami and Ibiza during the summer break this year, along with their three children in what appeared to be an idyllic family getaway.
However, a source told The Sun that despite the improved appearance on the outside, on the inside, Kilner is still seething from her husband’s extramarital affairs.
The source said: “The truth is, Annie doesn't want to be with Kyle. She can't forget the past.

GETTY“She can't forget Lauryn and the two children he has had with her, but she can't see a life without him either. She's embarrassed. That's why she won't wear her wedding ring.
"But she and Kyle have been together since they were teenagers and they don't know anything else. Kyle doesn't want a divorce either, not least because of the financial implications.
“She would want half of his £30million fortune. So they've reached a stalemate. They aren't happy, but the divorce has been kicked into the long grass. There's been no mention of it for quite some time now."

Walker left Manchester City this summer, where he has played his football since 2017 barring a six-month hiatus to Serie A giants AC Milan.
The 35-year-old joined recently-promoted side Burnley, with the source adding the pair are looking to move house along with the move due to the “bad memories” in his current Cheshire pad.
“There's too many bad memories in that house,” the source said. “It's where he proposed and where she [Kilner] found out about each baby with Lauryn.

Lauryn Goodman has had two children with Kyle Walker behind the back of Annie KilnerGETTY“Moving house isn't going to change any of that. No matter what happens from here on in they will never be able to have a fresh start because Lauryn is going nowhere.
“But the divorce has completely stalled and they've spent the summer holidaying together. They're still arguing relentlessly but it's become normalised and accepted in their relationship. They don't know of any other way to live.”
Walker will be hoping his move to Turf Moor can bring stability both on and off the pitch, during what has been a chaotic few years.
The six-time Premier League winner may not be expecting to win the league this year, but if he can help his side stay afloat, it can be considered a success.
