Back in September, the internet was thrown for not one but two loops after reports surfaced that two Kardashian/Jenners would be expecting their first child. After the internet finally digested the news that Kylie Jenner is reportedly pregnant back in mid-September, fans had yet another meltdown when an Us Weekly article reported that exclusive sources said Khloe Kardashian is pregnant with her first child with Tristan Thompson. And now, finally, fans have been vindicated, because Khloe Kardashian has actually confirmed her pregnancy. In an Instagram post Wednesday evening, Khloe posted a photo of her baby bump, and fans are reacting appropriately on social media, of course.
During the early stages of the reports, People mag sort of confirmed the news speaking to another source who told the publication:
“Yes, Khloe and Tristan are expecting and they are absolutely thrilled. This isn’t something they were in a rush to announce to the whole world, and it’s only been in just the past week or so that they’ve felt comfortable telling most of their inner circle.”
Kardashian’s confirmation makes Kardashian the (possibly) third pregnant Kardashian-Jenner, Kim Kardashian confirmed her pregnancy via surrogate in September, and Kylie Jenner has not confirmed her reported pregnancy with rapper boyfriend Travis Scott. UPDATE THIS DEPENDING ON WHAT WE KNOW.
Kardashian’s pregnancy shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise, though, if you have read her past interviews about her boyfriend, Thompson. In an interview with You magazine Thompson she said she definitely wants a family, but doesn’t “feel any pressure,” according to The Daily Mail, and then she made that answer super specific to Thompson:
Tristan is a great dad [he has an eight-month-old son with his previous partner] and he definitely wants more children, but we both feel that it will happen when the time is right. We’re still in a new relationship and I love us having time together. Once you have kids you can’t get back your non-kid years. My sisters and I bother my mum all the time, so I know it’s not, like, ‘When they’re 18, you don’t worry about them again.’ You worry about your children for the rest of your life. The concern I have is raising little human beings in a world that’s filled with such hate and terror. That seems very scary.
All of Kardashian’s quotes about Thompson are adorable and make it very clear that her relationship with him is pretty strong and really sweet. I don’t know them, but I can say that I wish the best for them, and it’s clear that fans do too.
