Khloe Kardashian confirms pregnancy

Reality star Khloe Kardashian confirms she is pregnant after months of rumors.

In an Instagram post, the 33-year-old socialite announced on Wednesday that she is carrying her first child with basketball player boyfriend Tristan Thompson. Kardashian showed off her baby bump, which she and Thompson are both holding. "My greatest dream realized! We are having a baby," she gushed in the caption.

My greatest dream realized! We are having a baby! I had been waiting and wondering but God had a plan all along. He knew what He was doing. I simply had to trust in Him and be patient. I still at times can't believe that our love created life! Tristan, thank you for loving me the way that you do! Thank you for treating me like a Queen! Thank you for making me feel beautiful at all stages! Tristan, most of all, Thank you for making me a MOMMY!!! You have made this experience even more magical than I could have envisioned! I will never forget how wonderful you've been to me during this time! Thank you for making me so happy my love! Thank you to everyone for the love and positive vibes! I know we've been keeping this quiet but we wanted to enjoy this between our family and close friends as long as we could privately. To enjoy our first precious moments just us ❤️ Thank you all for understanding. I am so thankful, excited, nervous, eager, overjoyed and scared all in one! But it's the best bundle of feelings I've ever felt in my life! ❤️❤️❤️

The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star was overwhelming with joy as she thanked her beau for a number of things, particularly for making her a mother. "I still at times can't believe that our love created life," she said.

To her fans, Kardashian explained that they took their time revealing her pregnancy as they wanted to enjoy it privately as much as they could, sharing it first only with close family and friends.

Fans were elated with the news, with thousands congratulating the couple for the pregnancy. Some, however, could not help but notice the big ring on Kardashian's ring finger, and whether another announcement is coming around.

The TV personality has been sporting that ring for a while, but sources tell Us Weekly that despite the bun in the oven, there are no plans for marriage yet.

One insider said Kardashian never found marriage as a prerequisite to having kids. "Khloe hasn't typically cared about getting married before having a baby," the source said in September.

A month later, another insider shared that "marriage is definitely in the cards." "They are just waiting for the right time to move forward. Khloe doesn't want to rush into anything," the source added.

The reality star's mother, Kris Jenner, shares in her daughter's excitement. In an Instagram post, she said, "God is so good!! I am beyond excited! What a blessing!"

Amid Kardashian's pregnancy announcement, there is one more family member who is yet to confirm or deny her pregnancy, the family's youngest daughter Kylie Jenner. If the rumors are true, mother Jenner has more than one reason to be "beyond excited" this Christmas.
