Kim Kadarshian confirms she, Kanye West expecting fourth child

Kim Kardashian, wife of popular US rapper, Kanye West has confirmed rumours that she and rapper Kanye are expecting a fourth child via surrogate.

The lifestyle mogul and reality TV superstar told the US program “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” early Tuesday that her family’s newest addition was a boy, and was due sometime soon.

She told Andy Cohen: “It (the rumour) is out there. I got drunk at our Christmas Eve party, and I told some people, but I can’t remember who I told.”

The new baby joins daughter Chicago, who was born last January via surrogate, daughter North, five, and their first son, three-year-old Saint.

Kardashian has been open about her struggles with pregnancy and decision to use a surrogate, as she had previously suffered from placenta accreta, a serious condition, where the placenta becomes too deeply attached to the wall of the uterus.
