Annie Kilner reaches out to Coleen Rooney as explosive Wag row with Becky Vardy deepens
THE HEARTBROKEN wife of footie flasher Kyle Walker has reached out to Coleen Rooney for support - sparking fears of a fresh Wagatha Christie war of words.
Model Annie, 30, was branded “a doormat” by Coleen’s nemesis Becky Vardy who claimed she was “great at playing the victim” in a stinging social media post in the wake of the sex scandal.
Mum-of-five Becky, wife of Leicester City ace Jamie, 36, lashed out after she was accused of poking fun at Annie’s plight in an earlier post which read “the gift that keeps on giving”.
She has since denied any link.
But we can reveal Annie - whose shamed husband was dropped to the Manchester City bench against Crystal Palace yesterday - contacted Coleen for support and advice.
A source said: “Annie reached out to Coleen for a shoulder to cry on. They’re friends.

“Coleen feels sorry for Annie because people like them seem to get laughed at for having hope in their relationships.
“Coleen knows what it is like to be at the centre of a storm. She also knows what it’s like to be on the receiving end of Becky’s tongue.”
Mum-of-three Annie has so far kept a dignified silence since Becky's attack online but is privately furious that she has “come out swinging” so publicly.
One source said: "Calling Annie a ‘door mat’ and the rest of her vitriol is the straw that has broken the camel’s back.

"Annie has never liked Becky and she hopes that any Wags she knows that are still in touch with Becky will see her for what she really is."
Those close to Becky, however, have argued she feels she has been wrongly dragged into a row.
In a fresh twist, we can also reveal how Annie and Kyle, 32, had a blazing row over his ex, Lauryn Goodman, just hours before he downed drinks and exposed himself in a bar.
Ex-Towie star Lauryn had a son, Kairo, now two, with the England ace in 2019 when he and Annie were on a break - and has since revealed she is pregnant again.
A source close to the couple told the Sun on Sunday: "The two women understandably can't stand each other.
"There are no happy modern families going on and Kyle doesn't even see Kairo.
"But on Sunday Lauryn took to her social media and teased her fans - and as it turns out, Annie - giving them a countdown to a new social media post where she was going to reveal some news.
“But she didn't give a clue about what the announcement would be.
"Annie wanted to know what it was. She spoke to various people to see if they knew what she was going to reveal and eventually someone told her that Lauryn was pregnant.
"When Annie was told Lauryn was quite far on in her pregnancy she realised she'd been lied to.
"Then Annie spoke to Kyle about it, she wanted to know if he had known all along. He said he didn't, but Annie was so wound up. The row escalated from there.
"Annie knows that a new baby affects her life. Like it or not, Kairo is Kyle's son and therefore half brother to her three sons and this new baby is extended family.
"She can never get away from the fact that he slept with someone else.
"Every time Lauryn's name comes up it hits a raw nerve with Annie.
"She may have tried to forgive him but she certainly hasn't forgotten."
Lauryn finally took to social media on Monday night to reveal her news.
She shared a photo of herself and son Kairo on the beach.
In the picture, Lauryn is wearing a bikini with a bump clearly on show. She wrote alongside her post: “FYI…It’s a BABY…Family completed 2023.”
Two days later, Annie discovered that Kyle had exposed himself - when The Sun broke the story - and told pals: "He's a d**k."
Shocking footage showed him flashing, snogging and pawing at a woman in a bar last Sunday.
Kyle, who appeared drunk and unsteady on his feet, now faces a police quiz for indecent exposure.
Cops have seized CCTV from the venue in Wilmslow, Cheshire, and have studied over two hours of footage from a variety of different angles.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has insisted it is a "private issue" but confirmed he had spoken to the £150,000-a-week player.
Annie, who wed Kyle in a small ceremony in November 2021, has endured a series of scandals involving her childhood sweetheart.
They split briefly after he romped in the back of a car with Ex On The Beach star Laura Brown in March 2019.

Then, during a break in their relationship in 2019 he and Lauryn had a fling and she gave birth to their son in April 2020.
Talking of her heartache Annie told The Sun: "What he has done to me and our children is obscene. I can’t begin to put it into words.”
