Khloe Kardashian will be a mom of two. She and Tristan Thompson are expecting their second child via surrogate.
A rep for the reality star confirmed the matter to People. As stated, the former couple’s first-born daughter “will have a sibling who was conceived in November.”
The same rep revealed that Kardashian is “incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing.”
The family is now said to be asking for “kindness and privacy” to allow the “Kocktails with Khloe” star to “focus on her family.”
With regard to Khloe Kardashian’s relationship with Tristan Thompson, the insider told the magazine that they are “not back together.”
The publication quoted the source, saying, “[they] have not spoken since December outside of co-parenting matters.”
The same informant later reiterated that the second child of the former couple was “conceived via surrogate” before the Kardashian-Jenner household learned about Thompson’s paternity scandal in December.
Fans and followers would recall that the 38-year-old personality and the 31-year-old NBA star ended their relationship after the discovery of his other child with another woman. The baby was born on December 1, with reports naming the mother, Maralee Nichols.
A different insider also spoke to Page Six regarding the surprising news. As claimed, Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian already had the baby in the works when the paternity drama made headlines in December.
The unnamed informant revealed that by then, the Good American co-founder had decided to do it “by herself.”
The reputed publication later shared that Kardashian has been openly talking to pals about the second child since before Christmas, as per another source.
Meanwhile, TMZ was the first to report the news later on Wednesday. It learned that the birth of the baby is “imminent,” adding that the arrival is likely “within days.”
A different insider also suggested to the outlet that the baby “may already have been born in the last day or so.”
Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson had their first child in 2018. They welcomed their first-born daughter nearly two years after first sparking romance rumors.
The two personalities had since been in an on-and-off relationship. They last got back together amid the COVID-19 pandemic, with sources claiming they spent quarantine together as a family, according to Us Weekly.
In December 2021, news broke that the NBA player had fathered a child with Maralee Nichols. He confirmed the matter in January, and issued a public apology to Kardashian.
