Kim Kardashian and her rapper husband, Kanye West are expecting their third child with the help of a surrogate. The reality star has been vocal about her desire for a big family, as she revealed in June that she and  her husband were looking for a surrogate.

According to reports, their surrogate is three months along, which means they’ll likely welcome baby three in January 2018.

Two pregnancies plagued by placenta accreta, a potentially life-threatening condition, have forced the couple to consider alternative options, rather than enduring another high-risk situation.

They have agreed to pay $45,000 in 10 monthly instalments of $4,500, according to reports. In the case of multiples, Kardashian and West will fork over $5,000 per additional child. This is all in addition to the whopping $68,850 deposit given to the agency.
