Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson could welcome their second child in days, after it was revealed they are expecting a baby via surrogate.
The reality star, 38, and Tristan, 31, who are parents to daughter True, four, announced on Wednesday night their baby was conceived in November, meaning their due date is imminently approaching.
At the moment Khloe is sunning herself in Turks and Caicos on a family holiday with sister Kim, but when she comes back it will be all systems go as she awaits the arrival of her second child, which is expected to be around August.
Khloe issued a statement through her representatives on Wednesday night asking for "kindness and privacy" in the upcoming weeks so the television personality can "focus on her family".
It read: "We can confirm True will have a sibling who was conceived in November.
"Khloe is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We’d like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloe can focus on her family."
The surprise pregnancy comes as a shock to fans after Tristan's love rat scandal became public in December, where it was revealed he had fathered a child, a baby boy named Theo, with personal trainer Maralee Nichols, 31.
A source told us: "The baby was conceived via surrogate before it was revealed to Khloe and the public that Tristan was having a baby with someone else in December."
It's also understood Khloe and Tristan are not back together and haven't spoken about anything other than parenting matters for the sake of their daughter True since their split in December.
Reality star Khloe, who is on a birthday trip with her family, and basketball player Tristan began dating in 2016 and had been on and off until December last year, before his scandal was exposed.
As well as Tristan's children with Khloe and Maralee, he has a third child, Prince, with his ex Jordan Craig.
Dramatic scenes where the Kardashians discovered Tristan's infidelity with Maralee aired on their Hulu series earlier this year. Viewers saw that Kim was the first to uncover reports that Maralee had filed court papers claiming Tristan was the father of her child.
Khloe was seen breaking down in tears as she slammed Tristan for "humiliating" her. However, as she watched the scenes back along with fans Khloe seemed more calm.
Reflecting on the "tough" episode at the time, she tweeted: "We all deserve forgiveness and most of all... LOVE.
"'Life is full of lessons, teachable moments. We should handle them with grace/love. Even if we are hurt by them."
She added: "Take ur moment, cry/scream but remain composed & remember that Love heals & teaches more than anger ever will."
