Chloe Goodman has finally explained why she banned her sister Lauryn from her wedding to Grant Hall.
The reality star, 31, exchanged vows with the Rotherham United defender, 32, during a lavish ceremony in Quinta Do Lago, Portugal at the start of June.
However, Chloe’s sister Lauryn, 33, was missing from the occasion amid their ongoing feud.
The sisters fell out after it was revealed that footballer Kyle Walker, 34, had fathered a second child with Lauryn.
Kyle is said to have fathered his first child, Kairo, now four, with Lauryn while he had temporarily split from his girlfriend Annie Kilner, 32, in 2019.
However, the pair later reconciled and got married in 2021, and now share four kids together.
Despite their reconciliation, it emerged in December that Lauryn had welcomed a second child, whose name has not been disclosed, with Kyle.
Chloe and Lauryn’s relationship has been on tenterhooks since it was revealed that Kyle had fathered a second child with Lauryn in December.
Speaking to the Daily Mail about uninviting Lauryn from her wedding, Chloe explained that she feared the scandal would overshadow her big day.
“The least Lauryn could have done is kept it quiet that Kyle was the dad of her second-born until after the wedding,” she said.
Chloe also claimed there had been an “agreement” that the news would “stay quiet” until after she had exchanged vows with Grant, with whom she shares two children.
The mother-of-two recalled things being “so messy” when Lauryn’s affair with Kyle was exposed.
Chloe shared: “So I said: ‘Look I get married in June and I just don’t want a whole frenzy at my wedding’.”
“I simply didn’t want the drama, which meant Lauryn couldn’t be there.”
Chloe went on to express her love for her sister, but claimed she can be a “difficult” person.
The 31-year-old confessed she “wasn’t confident” that Lauryn “wouldn’t cause issues” or “drama” at their wedding, and insisted she “had to be selfish”.
The reality star confirmed Lauryn was supposed to be a bridesmaid alongside their younger sister Amelia, and she was also going to include her two kids in the wedding party as a page boy and flower girl.
Chloe admitted she brought Lauryn’s outfit to Portugal in case she changed her mind “at the last minute”, but her gut “kept saying no”.
Although she had a “moment of uncertainty” the night before the wedding and on the day itself, Chloe said she stands by her decision.Â
However, the former glamour model hinted at a potential reconciliation with her sister down the line, as she revealed she “longs” for the day when “all of this mess” is behind them.
