The Boundary Dispute Escalates
Jasmine David, a 51-year-old neighbour of England footballer Kyle Walker, has found herself embroiled in a complex feud involving Walker and his former partner Lauryn Goodman. Initially at odds with Walker over a property line disagreement, Jasmine’s involvement took a turn when she struck up an online friendship with Goodman, who is also the mother of two of Walker’s children.
From Friendship to Espionage
The situation intensified when Goodman allegedly requested Jasmine to conduct surveillance on Walker, a married Manchester City defender. The aim was to capture evidence of discord between Walker and his wife Annie, which Goodman hoped could be used to her advantage. Jasmine, uncomfortable with the escalation, declined, especially after learning that such actions would be illegal.
Desperation and Obsession
Jasmine paints a picture of Goodman’s growing fixation with Walker’s personal life, likening it to the intense narrative of the film “Fatal Attraction.” She describes Goodman’s desperation to monitor Walker’s movements at his Cheshire residence, a fixation that Jasmine believes was fueled by unmet expectations and broken promises.
The Court’s Harsh Verdict
Last week, a judge’s ruling cast a shadow on Goodman’s actions, describing her financial demands from Walker as treating him like an “open-ended cheque book.” Despite the criticism, Jasmine maintains that Goodman is not inherently malicious, suggesting that falling for the wrong person led to her unraveling.
A Three-Year Boundary Battle Continues
The neighbourly dispute between Walker and Jasmine has been ongoing, with a notable incident last December where 20 tons of soil were dumped onto Walker’s home astro football pitch. This marked a significant escalation in a three-year-long battle over their shared boundary.
