Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting a baby boy, it’s been confirmed by ‘multiple sources’ today.
The couple – who announced Kim’s pregnancy just last week – will be having a little brother for two-year-old daughter North West, according to Us Weekly.
A source told the US mag: “Kanye loves Nori more than anything, but to make his world complete he wanted a little boy, an heir.
“He’s overjoyed!”
The same insider said Kim is also over the moon with the news.
“Kim always wanted two kids – a girl and a boy.”
Kim and Kanye were spotted shopping for boys clothes in a posh New York boutique at the start of June, but apparently that wasn’t a massive clue about the sex of their unborn child.
Instead, they were just looking for clothes for Kim’s niece Penelope and found themselves in the boy section.
Kim herself tweeted this afternoon to clear up the confusion, and confirmed they haven't told anyone the gender yet.

"This is my dad. He's got a silly name which I can't pronounce because I'm still very much a baby. He likes the sound of his own voice but he's quite good at jiggling me up in the air until I'm sick on his head. The Mum laughs and Dad gets cross."

"Mum and Dad got dressed up all silly today and Granny Kris kept crying and Auntie Khloe drank too much of Mum's Mummy Juice and fell over. It was fun, even when I had a nappy accident in my white dress. Actually, that was the best bit."

"This is the day Dad took me to the place he called a Stoo-dee-O. I didn't really understand what it was for because all Dad did was play me some of his music. Didn't think much of it TBH - I much prefer Twinkle Twinkle."

"Mum dressed us in matching outfits today. Soooo cringeworthy. It's alright though - I smushed some banana onto her top during lunch so she had to go and change. That'll teach her - get your own style, Mum!"

"Me and Dad reeeeeally wanted to go to soft-play but Mum said Granny Kris was coming over and Dad said something under his breath that sounded like, "For God's sake why did you ever give her that spare key" and Mum said, "What did you say?" and Dad said, "Nothing, darling!" and Mum said, "Humph" and anyway we ended up not going to soft-play."
