First baby for Kanye and Kim (and here’s how she might look)
THEY are one of America’s most famous celebrity couples, and now reality TV star Kim Kardashian and rapper Kanye West are expecting a baby.
West, 35, revealed the news when he told a crowd at a concert in the US on Sunday night to ‘stop the music and make noise for my baby mama’.
Miss Kardashian, who is thought to be four months pregnant, was in the audience for the sell-out performance in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Her spokesman later confirmed she was expecting their first child. The pair have been dating for eight months and had previously denied rumours of a pregnancy. The news comes despite the fact that Miss Kardashian, 32, is still technically married to her second husband, basketball player Kris Humphries.
She and her family rose to fame in an MTV reality show about their lives, called Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
In an episode shown in September, it emerged that Miss Kardashian was considering freezing her eggs because she feared she was too old to conceive.
Merging the happy couple’s first name’s together to dub their baby ‘Kimye’, another Kardashian sister, Khloe, wrote: ‘Keeping secrets is hard with so many family members! Especially when you are so freaking excited!!!!! LOVE is everything!!!!’
A tongue-in-cheek computer-generated image of what the baby could look like if it inherits both parents’ distinctive features was published online yesterday.
