The news of Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson’s decision to expand their family sent the innanet into a frenzy on Tuesday. While some were shocked by the news, others wished KoKo and Tristan well on their news journey together.

Khloe has long spoken about giving her daughter True and sibling, specifically hoping for a baby boy, and it looks like her prayers have been answered, According to Page Six, Khloe and Tristan will be welcome their first son together in just a few days.

A source close to the family had this to say about the child’s gender:

Khloe has always wanted a little brother for True and decided to go ahead with having with baby with the support of her family.”

If you thought fans on the internet were in shock, imagine how Khloe’s family felt when they learned of her new child through the media! According to E! news, KoKo Kardashian had not yet revealed the news to her family, and was reportedly keeping her baby boy a secret “to protect her mental health from judgement from the public as a result of Tristan’s actions.”

Khloe’s hand was forced to confirm the pregnancy before she was ready to announce, and even before she had the opportunity to personally tell her close family and friends.
