The Kardashian-Jenner households have a lot of celebrating to do. Khloe Kardashian is reportedly pregnant with her first child with Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson, People reports. “Yes, Khloe and Tristan are expecting and they are absolutely thrilled,” a source told People. “This isn’t something they were in a rush to announce to the whole world, and it’s only been in just the past week or so that they’ve felt comfortable telling most of their inner circle.”

Apparently, Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson have waited to officially announce the news because they didn’t want to steal the spotlight from another family member who is reportedly expecting her first child: Kylie Jenner. Emphasis on reported as the beauty mogul has yet to confirm the news herself, but a source who revealed Khloe’s pregnancy to People also told the publication, “Things were complicated a bit by Kylie’s announcement as they don’t want to be seen as intruding on that moment for her but it is now reaching a point where Khloe doesn’t want to be openly lying to people, and just staying quiet isn’t going to work anymore.”

Khloe and Kylie aren’t the only Kardashian-Jenners expecting, though: Kim Kardashian and husband Kanye West have a third child on the way that is reportedly due in January. Kim, whose growing family includes four-year-old North and one-year-old Saint, talked about hiring a surrogate to carry her third child on Keeping Up With the Kardashians saying, “I feel like surrogacy is the only option for me. I always knew surrogacy was an option; now it’s my reality.”

Khloe has also spoken out about her own fertility on the show, specifically in the 13th season finale of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. “I was married, but I knew the circumstances weren’t the healthiest,” she told her doctor, referencing her faked attempts to get pregnant with then-husband Lamar Odom. “So, I just kept pretending I was doing it.” In the same episode, Khloe also spoke about the possibility of having a child with her boyfriend Tristan Thompson. “He wants to have about five or six kids with me and that’s lovely,” she said. “We could start at one and we could grow from there. But now knowing I’m not on birth control is scary. It’s like a really big step.”

Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson have yet to confirm the news.
