Kardashian takes to motherhood
Speculation baby is being kept under wraps for big payday
Reality-TV queen Kim Kardashian admits she’s stunned at what a “natural” she is at motherhood with her newborn baby girl North.
Kardashian — who rose to fame on the back of a lurid sex tape — and boyfriend rapper Kanye West have also surprised friends.
Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin told the Daily Mirror: “When I walked in to see her, Kim was holding the baby. I said, ‘Oh my God. You’re a natural.’ Kim said, ‘I know — it’s so weird!’
“The baby is beautiful. Kim keeps telling me how much fun it is to be a mom. She and Kanye are so happy.”
Kardashian told another friend, she “can’t believe how maternal she is on her own. Breastfeeding is working for her and she already feels she has bonded with Nori,” the Mirror said.
So far, Kardashian and West have kept the baby under wraps, even turning down a $3.2-million offer from an Australian magazine for pictures of the baby.
But the Kardashian clan are noted for trying to ensure they get financial kickback from every picture, video or story published or aired about them.
Some sources say Kardashian even went so far as to test her friends to see if any were selling pictures of the baby to celebrity magazines and photo agencies.
The couple shared photos with six friends they said were of their newborn but were not, published reports said. One of their inner circle betrayed the pair and were asking “a lot of money” for the snap.
Other reports suggest the baby may also derail the relationship between Kardashian and West, who has little interest in exploiting the baby for financial gain.
Meanwhile, stepfather Bruce Jenner has moved out of the family home and into his old beach house in Malibu. Sources said it was to give the new parents and their baby some space.
A source told RadarOnline: “The entire household has been turned upside down because Kim and Nori have moved in. Bruce has been run out of the house! Kris didn’t encourage him to stay either.
“Bruce decided to ditch the family home because he was constantly being told to be quiet because of baby Nori.”
