Kim Kardashian West and her husband Kanye West are expecting their fourth child through a surrogate. The baby was due this month, and the surrogate has finally gone into labor, which means the baby will be born any time now.

There have been some rumors about when the baby will be born, but it is only now that a family member has finally shared some concrete news. It was not Kardashian West who made the announcement, but her sister Kourtney Kardashian who spilled the beans at a recent interview with “The Ellen Show.”

Kris Jenner was the guest at the show, but Ellen DeGeneres decided to surprise her by bringing on Kourtney and the six grandchildren as guests on to the show. A surprised Jenner fought back some tears of joy as she greeted her grandchildren and her daughter.

The bigger surprise came during the interview when Kourtney revealed that the Kim’s surrogate is at the hospital and she is in labor. Jenner apparently didn’t know about it, and she asked her daughter how long it has been since the surrogate mother has been in hospital, and she also enquired about who was with her.

Jenner was too excited to continue the interview, and asked the host to join them as they head to the hospital. Kim was supposed to be there for the interview, but she decided to go to the hospital instead. The interview ended with all the children getting a t-shirt.

Tweeting about the interview, DeGeneres wrote that she surprised Jenner twice. She also sent her love to the couple Kim and Kanye.

This is the fourth child of Kim and Kanye, and the baby is expected to be a boy. Their other three children are 5-year-old North, 3-year-old Saint and 15-month-old Chicago.

Kim has so far not shared any details about her surrogate being in labor. All her posts on Twitter are about new shades of lipstick that she will be lunching soon, which may have been shared online before she went to the hospital.
