It's a boy! Kim and Kanye welcome fourth child

Just in time for Mother’s Day, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s fourth child has arrived.

The news of the baby boy’s arrival — via surrogate — was announced by the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star Friday on Twitter. While she didn’t reveal his name, she said that “he’s perfect.”

Kardashian added that the baby is “Chicago’s twin,” referring to their 1-year-old.

The couple, who will celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary on the 24th of May, are also parents to 5 year old North and three year old Saint and Chicago who is just 15 months old.

Kardashian turned to surrogacy after having difficult pregnancies with her first two children.

She revealed in 2017 that carrying babies was too risky moving forward.

According to Entertainment Tonight, the couple used a new surrogate for their most recent addition.

News of the imminent arrival was spilled by Kourtney Kardashian and Kris Jenner on the Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday.

Apparently Kim and Kourtney were supposed to surprise guest Kris by bringing out their kids during the momager’s interview.

But when Kourtney arrived with both her brood and Kim’s, a shocked Kris discovered that Kim was at the hospital waiting for the baby.

There was a false report days earlier — on Monday — that the surrogate had given birth.

Kardashian shut down the news on Twitter, writing, “It’s Met Monday,” she said, referring to the Met Gala. “I’m in NYC. I would be at the hospital lol.”

The baby’s name has yet to be revealed, and the arrival joins a slew of high-profile births most notably the arrival of baby Sussex, aka Archie Mountbatton-Windsor.
