Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s baby announcement was without a doubt one of the biggest stories to close out 2012. Confirmed a little before New Year’s Day, everyone was talking about Kim and Kanye’s baby on the way. However, there have been rumors circulating that contrary to what Kim’s camp is claiming, Kanye and Kim actually planned to get pregnant. And ever since Kim confirmed that her baby will be born in July, it’s clear that the reality star got pregnant right after her ex Reggie Bush confirmed he was expecting a baby with his girlfriend. The baby news also comes close to the expected delivery date for Kanye’s ex Amber Rose. So it’s no shocker that there are people suggesting that Kim and Kanye’s timing has everything to do with outshining their exes.
Regardless, it’s clear that both parents to be are excited about starting their family.
Khloe Kardhashian is still struggling with getting pregnant with Lamar Odom, but Khloe has been very vocal about her infertility issues. This, along with Khloe’s down to earth personality, is one of the reasons Khloe seems to fare better with the public.
Interestingly enough, now Kim claims that she too struggled with getting pregnant. In a recent interview with the Today Show, the reality star and Kanye’s “baby mama” (the rapper proclaimed Kim as his baby mama when he announced the news) claims that it was very difficult for her to get pregnant.
She says:
“Khloe has been very open about her fertility issues and I think I was always really kind of quiet about mine, and I have similar issues, and so it was a pleasant surprise when so many doctors were telling me one thing and then the opposite happens.
“That’s an exciting moment, you can’t plan for things like that. So I think it’s just such a blessing knowing my circumstances. As much as I would like to be in a perfect world where I’m divorced you can’t plan for any of that.”
Kim also downplayed the wedding talk that’s been going around for the last two months. According to Kim, she and Kanye really aren’t thinking about marriage just yet, and rather focus on their baby:
“It’s something that we talk about, but I think it’s just right now [we’re] focusing on the baby. What I’ve learned in life is — I was always such a planner. You think your life is going to be a certain way, and the best surprises just happen when you don’t plan. I’m just so content with how things are right now. We definitely want that in the future, but I’m not in a rush.”
According to a little chatter in the PR circles, Kim is lying through her teeth about her “fertility problems” and “lack of interest” in marrying Kanye. We were told by a gossip enthusiast who is also pretty heavy in PR that Kim is desperate to make her current situation look less ratchet than it is. Apparently, Kim’s team picked up on how much more liked Khloe is, so Kim’s been advised take the infamous “It was hard for me to get pregnant route” in her interviews. We were also told that she’s also downplaying her interest in getting married to Kanye because it’s incredibly tacky for her to admit that she’s been trying to get married again while she still hasn’t managed to get divorced from her current husband. And Kris won’t back down from his stance on getting an annulment.
We also heard that Kim opted for IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) to get pregnant because she and Kanye wanted to get pregnant quickly, not because they tried numerous times and failed.
We have to admit, if this is true, it’s pretty low down of Kim to pretend to be going through what her sister is going through just to score more points with the public. But she does have another reality show premiering this month with her sister Kourtney, and everyone knows that ratings are priority number one in the Kardashian household.
LOL I figured this much. Kim has no heart, and no soul. I hate that she’s Khloe’s sister.
#REALTALK
This chick is so damn phony! Kim’s only love and loyalty goes to money and fame. Sad.
Is she really even pregnant? This bish probably got a surrogate.
Selfish b-tch. Can’t stand her. #TeamKhloe
I laughed when I heard this interview. The girl is so fake it’s sad. Nobody believes her either.
She also thinks a baby was going to make her more tolerable but it’s not working. Kim will never be liked by the majority of the public. She just needs to accept that.
I just want her to go away! I’m convinced her fam is paying for all of this publicity. I refuse to believe people care about her or her family enough for her to be on the Today Show telling lies.
Kim’s people definitely pay for press. It’s how she’s managed to last this long.
Yeah..nothing she says can make people forget that she’s an internet porn star who got on because she did the spread eagle for Brandy’s little brother.
I feel sorry for this kid already. To have Kim as a mother is a big fail at life.
Money is Kim’s master in life. I kind of feel sorry for her. She has no substance and her life revolves around fame and a stupid reality show. Then she gets knocked up by Kanye out of all people. Gross.
This is believable. Kim will do anything her mom tells her and her mom is low enough to tell her to do this.
Agreed!
At what point does Kim put other people before herself? Khloe is her sister! Damn, why do this? Are ratings more important than her own sister? She is really low down.
I’m sick of this witch. Is the Today show running short on real news that they take the time out of their busy schedules to interview her? Why? Does she have a movie to promote? Why does her every move need to be exposed to the public. Its like the Truman Show – everything for everyone to watch. She isn’t thinking about marriage because she’s still married. Kim is a mess. Kanye is disrespectful – his ‘perfect b-tch’ and now his ‘baby momma’??? That man has no intentions on marrying her. Just shacking up with her. This is what you lower yourself to screw n get preggers by? He may be rich but he’s classless. I guess that’s what she deserves. There is no come back when you’re still married and pregnant by the next dude. You can’t go on PR runs to try to make it look better. I wish people would do a petition to get her shows off the air like they did Shorty Low’s show. She’s disgusting. I feel bad for the baby. Poor thing will be teased mercilessly for the Ray J sex tape scandal among all the mayhem and foolishness.
Kim is definitely lying about having fertility issues. On her show, she & Khloe went to the doctor to undergo fertility testing. They found out that Khloe had issues, and Kim didn’t. So when did these “fertility issues” start?! What a lying and SELFISH human being!!!
What a lying…..!!!! This boils my blood because I just went for tests to check my fertility and am going through this. How dare she lie about it. Doesn’t surprise me though. Everything about her is fake. I mean, I know it, but for some stupid reason I keep watching. I know it’s wrong, but I do. On Keeping Up WTK she went to the doctor with Kloe and was fine. In fact, she apparently started the hormone treatment to freeze her eggs. I know from going to the doctor myself that this treatment will most likely not work if your egg count is low (ie. Hormone level is HIGH), as she claims hers is. On the show show tonight she claimed that her hormone level was LOW because of being on the pill. I don’t think that’s accurate. At least know what you’re talking about when you lie. I too was on the pill for years and the hormone level, FSH, is HIGH if you have low egg count or have been on the pill. Does not make sense to me. Don’t believe her bullsh-t.
