Paris Hilton undergoes another round of IVF in bid to have daughter

Paris Hilton may have only just welcomed her first child via surrogate, but is already talking about plans for baby number two.

The hotel heiress, 42, and husband Carter Reum, also 42, announced the birth of their son Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum in January.

Now, Hilton has shared her hope to give Phoenix a little sister and has excitingly already begun the process.

During Covid lockdown, she and her venture capitalist other-half successfully froze 20 embryos, but as they were all were boys they decided to try again in a bid for a daughter.

Speaking to Glamour magazine, she explained: “We’ve done it seven times… I have all boys. I have 20 boys. I just went through the process again a month ago, so I’m waiting for the results to see if there’s any girls.”

During the interview, she also told how she had previously had her eggs frozen in her 30s on the advice of friend and former personal assistant Kim Kardashian, long before getting together with her husband.

She said: “I went and did the one round of IVF, because Kim had told me about it. So I had eggs frozen.”

Hilton initially kept the fact she had welcomed her first child a secret - even her mum didn’t know until a week after he had been born.

Speaking on her This Is Paris podcast she said: “Not even my mom, my sisters, my best friend knew until he was over a week old.

“It was really nice to have that with Carter, be our own journey together. I just feel like my life has been so public, and I’ve never really had anything be just mine.

“So when we were talking about it, I really felt that I wanted this journey to be for us only.

“Because we were so excited and wanted to tell our families, but we were just nervous because if you tell a person, then they tell someone, and all the sudden, it’s in TMZ or Page Six, and I’ve had enough of my life like that.

“So Carter and I literally made a pact together that we would not tell anyone, and no one knew until just recently.”
