The rumours are true — Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West are expecting a son.

The reality star broke the baby boy news late Sunday (US) on Instagram, sharing a photo of the rapper reading to 2-year-old daughter North for Father’s Day.

“Precious moments like this when we were traveling on tour with you are what I live for,” Kardashian West, 34, captioned the photo, below. “You’re such a good daddy to North & you will be the best daddy to our new son too!”
