Kim
Kardashian gave birth to her first child on Saturday - a month ahead of her due
date. Mail Online exclusively
revealed that the 32-year-old had been admitted to hospital in Beverly Hills on
Friday. The reality star had taken out a birthing suite at Cedars-Sinai Medical
Center - a hospital of choice among many celebrities including Britney Spears,
Victoria Beckham and Jessica Simpson. Hours later - around 1:30 a.m. on
Saturday - she gave birth to her baby girl.
Her
partner, rapper Kanye West, and mother Kris Jenner were reportedly at her side.
Her due date was reportedly July 11 - the same day as
Kate Middleton. Kim had planned to have a C-section but after suffering an
infection had decided to take the precaution of going to the hospital a few
weeks early, according to X17Online.
Both
mother and baby are in good health and resting, but given the early birthday,
the littlest Kardashian has been placed in an incubator. No further details
have been released and the couple have not given any hint at what they will
name their daughter.
The
couple announced the pregnancy in December. Kardashian has been married twice
before - to musician Damon Thomas in her 20s and most recently to basketball
player Kris Humphries. On Friday night West skipped out on a listening party
for his latest album in Los Angeles, prompting speculation the baby was on its
way.
Several
of Kim's close friends, including Scott Disick and Jonathan Cheban both
attended the party. Sources close to the couple later confirmed to Mail Online
that she had been hospitalized. It's been a stressful week for the pair as
rumours circulated that he
cheated on her with a Canadian model after they met at one of his shows, though
spokespeople for both Kim and Kanye vigorously deny the claims.
The 36-year-old rapper, who
celebrated his birthday on June 8, was last spotted at the Yeezus
listening party in Switzerland Tuesday.
He's been heavily active in
promoting his new album, due out on Tuesday, and fans wondered whether he was
referring to his post-Kardashian lifestyle in the lyrics to his track, New
Slave.West raps: 'I’ll move my family out the country/So you can’t see where I
stay/So go and grab the reporters/So I can smash his recorders.'
Asked for this thoughts on
parenthood, he said: 'One of the things was just to be protective, that I would
do anything to protect my child or my child's mother... [But I haven't fully
developed those thoughts yet.'
He continued: 'Well, I just
don't want to talk to America about my family. Like, this is my baby.
This isn't America's Baby.'Kim was last seen out and about on Wednesday in a
baby bump-hugging green Top Shop dress having lunch at Casa Vega with her
friend Jonathan Cheban.On Friday her mother Kris Jenner was spotted visiting
her pregnant daughter's Los Angeles mansion, possibly ready to get a head start
with the packing. Jonathan popped by the house hours later and was spotted
transporting a Louis Vuitton bag from the house and into the back of a private
car.
The birth of the couple's
first child comes just weeks after Kim celebrated her pregnancy in a
star-studded baby shower at the home of a family friend in Beverly Hills.
