The Kardashian family has just got even bigger as Kim Kardashian West and her husband Kanye West have just welcomed their third child via a surrogate.

The happy couple, who already share two children, have welcomed a baby girl into world.

According to American showbiz site TMZ, Kim and Kanye's surrogate gave birth to their little girl on Monday night, with her weighing a healthy 7lbs 6oz.

Writing a post on her website, Kim wrote, 'Kanye and I are happy to announce the arrival of our healthy, beautiful baby girl. We are incredibly grateful to our surrogate who made our dreams come true with the greatest gift one could give and to our wonderful doctors and nurses for their special care. North and Saint are especially thrilled to welcome their baby sister. Love, Kim Kardashian West'. [sic]

Lovely news!

The new arrival is the couple's third child together, they already share four-year-old daughter North West and two-year-old son Saint West.

Kim chose to use a surrogate for her third as she has a life threatening condition which created serious issues for her during her birth with Saint.

After months of rumours that Kim and Kanye were expecting via a surrogate, the mum-of-two finally confirmed the exciting news in the trailer for the latest series of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

In a trailer for the 10th anniversary series, Kim FaceTimed her sister Khloe and announced, "We're having a baby!"
