Tennis star Jack Draper has allegedly received "a wake-up call" following the emergence of reported intimate messages between himself and Lauryn Goodman. The duo initially connected on the exclusive celebrity dating platform Raya in April and were said to have been spotted enjoying a coffee meeting in South London, though their brief liaison quickly fizzled out.

The pair are understood to have shared flirtatious exchanges on the dating application, with Draper allegedly requesting to arrange a rendezvous with the Celebs Go Dating personality. Nevertheless, the sporting figure is said to be displeased by the private correspondence being made public.

It's suggested that the couple had communicated through the elite dating platform earlier this year and believed there might have been chemistry between them.

However, individuals reportedly close to Draper have now spoken out, asserting that the disclosed messages have served as "a wake-up call" for the tennis professional.

Both Draper and Goodman concluded there was no connection following their initial encounter and opted against arranging a second meeting.

A source close to the tennis star told Daily Mail: "Raya is a private app for industry people to meet others, but seeing an unremarkable coffee date and a handful of insignificant messages leaked will have given him a real wake-up call."

However, an insider revealed to The Sun: "Jack was sending her sexy messages - trying to find out what she is into. Lauryn's a dark horse and wasn't giving a lot away, so he tried luring her in with pictures of himself topless. Jack also mentioned going to Lauryn's to get in the hot tub with her, but she quickly shut him down."

A source close to Goodman told The Mirror: "Lauryn has had trust issues within her close circle, and she is upset to see she still has this."

The 34-year-old mother-of-two, and an ex of Burnley star Kyle Walker, enjoyed a coffee shop date in Wandsworth with Draper, who is 11 years her junior, but the romance fizzled out before it even started.

An insider informed The Sun on Sunday: "Jack's a regular, so I see him often. He towered above her, but they were flirting as he bought her a coffee. I saw them leave together."

Goodman sparked controversy last year when news broke that she had given birth to another child fathered by Walker, whilst he remained wed to Annie Kilner during the time of conception.

Kilner was initially resolute in her pursuit of divorce proceedings at that juncture.

However, it appears the former Manchester City star has successfully reconciled with the mother of his four children.

In January of last year, Walker delivered a heartfelt public apology to his heartbroken spouse.

He declared: "What I've done is horrible and I take full responsibility. I made idiot choices and idiot decisions. I can't begin to think or imagine what Annie is going through. I've tried to ask her but there's pain and hurt.

"My actions have caused a lot of pain to a lot of people. I'm sorry because, as a family, this isn't meant to happen."
