American reality TV star Khloé Kardashian is considering expanding her family and adding one more child, but she does not think she has the emotional capacity for another baby.
The 41-year-old shared the confession on a new episode of her podcast, Khloé In Wonder Land, after a fan asked: “If you met your soulmate this year, would you want to have more kids with him?”
“Never say never. I will never say never. I would want to be married and have kids that way,” she said as she rattled off different scenarios.
Kardashian added that she has been “contemplating” having another child, even though she wants her seven-year-old daughter to have a sister.
“I have been contemplating, do I just do this? Do it on my own. But I don't know if, emotionally, I can handle this.
“It has just been a thought because I don’t think it’s gonna happen. I would put the baby in a surrogate, and I think I would have a very different experience because I would be along for that surrogate journey, as opposed to all the trauma that surrounded Tatum's surrogate experience," Kardashian explained.
She further explained that she would choose to have a baby through a surrogate, just like she did with her second child, Tatum, even though there is no guarantee that the embryo implantation will be successful.
“Because also I was thinking, I would put the baby in a surrogate, and I think I would have a very different experience because I would be along for that surrogate journey, as opposed to all the trauma that surrounded Tatum's surrogate experience,” she shared.
The reality TV star shares True and three-year-old son Tatum with ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson.
Thompson infamously cheated on Kardashian with one of Kylie Jenner’s ex-best friends, Jordyn Woods, in 2019, which was before she gave birth to True.
This resulted in Jenner and Woods ultimately ending their friendship with no signs of reconciliation until 2023.
With their second child, Thompson admitted to fathering a child with model Maralee Nichols while a surrogate was pregnant with Tatum.
Since then, Kardashian has openly shared that she does not want to be in a relationship and has embraced being single and focusing on raising her children.
