So are we! Hurrah.

Details of the surrogate have remained scarce but Kim, 37, previously revealed on an episode of KUWTK that it took her and Kanye a year to find the perfect candidate.

“Getting a surrogate and finding someone that you really trust really is so much more for difficult of a situation than you could really imagine.

“You have to like make sure that their lifestyle is healthy and they have to go through psychological testing, and it was maybe a year before we finalised our current situation.

“But I think everything happens for a reason, because the surrogate that I really loved got approved and she is such a nice person, like she’s so easy to talk to and she’s the perfect fit for us, but we have to decide quickly, are we really going to go through with this or are we gonna wait until we feel more prepared.”

Kim is already mother to North, four, and Saint, two.

Congrats again!
