Reality TV star Lauryn Goodman, 34, has faced savage slurs from what she dubs "keyboard warriors" on a notorious gossip site - which led to her receiving calls from social services
Lauryn Goodman has revealed that trolls called social services on her children with Kyle Walker as she shared her nightmare experience with a notorious gossip website.
The reality TV star, 34, has faced savage slurs from what she dubs "keyboard warriors" on "toxic" site Tattle Life. The website has seen influencers and celebrities' private and intimate information posted and gossip to be spread about them.
‌
Tattle Life allows for members to post anonymously about anyone and anything they want, which has led to some heartbreaking consequences for those written about including businesses ruined and some even resorting to self-harm. Among those talked about on the site include Katie Price, Alice Evans, Stacey Solomon and Molly-Mae Hague.
‌
However, the site's founder Sebastian Bond has been unmasked this week after nasty, unfounded claims about couple Neil and Donna Sands on Tattle Life led to them winning a £300,000 libel payout. Donna, who is a fashion influencer and owns clothing brand Sylkie, and tech entrepreneur Neil were awarded damages for harassment and defamation over a 45-page thread on the site.
Lauryn met the couple through Instagram and formed a WhatsApp group in a bid to unmask the trolls on the site.
Detailing her own horror experience with the site, she told Mail+ that it all began in lockdown while she was pregnant with eldest son Kairo with footballer Kyle while he was on a 'break' from wife Annie Kilner. She claimed that Tattle users accused her of being an escort paid to go to Hong Kong to have sex.
However, once her relationship with Kyle became publicised, she said Tattle users began attacking her children with hateful slurs.
She said: "They have called my children so many nasty, nasty things which I don't ever want to say because it's so disgusting. They used terms for children born out of wedlock, horrible terms that you shouldn't refer any child by.
‌
"They're so innocent – they're minors and it's sick. I can't understand why anyone would do this to kids. They think they are funny with it but there is nothing funny about it, what have my children done to deserve this? Take away my part in the mess, what have they done? It's a form of harassment."
Yet the situation worsened still as she revealed that social services were called on her, claiming Kairo and Kinara weren't being looked after properly. Admitting she was "so embarrassed", she said: "People from Tattle were anonymously ringing social services. They say it on the website too, things like: 'She's going to be getting a call from social services...' and the next thing, I get one."
‌
Lauryn revealed that there had been two calls from social services, which she dubbed "just horrible".
"They say my children aren't loved but they are, they get hugs all of the time and I read a book to them every night," she continued. "They said stuff like I don't feed them and when Kairo was a baby they said I was starving him. I mean, I was exclusively breast pumping to give him milk all hours. It was horrible, it was mean and it is totally unacceptable."
‌
She went on to claim that Kinara's name first appeared on Tattle Life - which she had not yet revealed publicly and had only told her close friends and family. "Inevitably, it caused trust issues for me. It makes me paranoid," Lauryn said. "It gave me anxiety and it changed me. I used to be outgoing but now I'm a nervous wreck."
The influencer also was left deeply concerned as those on the site would stalk her regular coffee shop hot spots or various other places. She further claimed that her medical records were mentioned on the site, along with wild accusations that she was "offer her head on the gear", referring to cocaine. Lauryn strongly denies that she has ever taken drugs.
Lauryn continued: "They contact the companies and point out bad things about people and then they get dropped and that means they lose money, this is affecting people's livelihoods and it's not fair."
Following her highly publicised court battle with Kyle, the heat ramped up on Lauryn. She said: "I feel like it has impacted me in quite a lot of ways, not just defamation and libel issues but it has contributed to the circus and the narrative of the saga with Kyle."
