Khloe Kardashian reveals why she opted for surrogacy.
Earlier this month, Khloe Kardashian confirmed she was expecting her second child.
The mum opted for surrogacy, which she feels incredibly grateful for.
However, the reason why Khloe decided to go down the surrogate route has now been revealed.
A source close to the soon-to-be mum-of-two explained that Khloe didn’t want to put her body in jeopardy again.
At the start of the year, Khloe and Kim promised each other that they’d get into the best shape possible. Because of this agreement, Khloe felt like surrogacy was the best option for her.
An insider told Heat Magazine that the main reason was because of health reasons.
“There were medical reasons that factored into her decision to use a surrogate, but not putting such a strain on her body was a huge motivation.”
The insider said, “[Kim and Khloé] made a pact at the start of the year that they’d go all out to get into the best possible shape and they’ve thrown themselves into the project.”
During a previous season of The Kardashians, Khloe admitted she thought surrogacy would be easy.
However, she later discovered that it wasn’t as easy as she once believed.
“There are so many tests they have to do and all these things. I thought it would be a much easier process. And it’s not.”
Khloe said the process has been very tedious.
However, the reality star said she’s incredibly excited about becoming a mum again.
Khloe’s representative issued a statement confirming her baby news.
“We can confirm True will have a sibling who was conceived in November.”
“Khloe is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We’d like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloe can focus on her family.”
Tristan Thompson is the father of Khloe’s second child.
