Khloé Kardashian Told Us She Was Pregnant in June and We Missed It

You guys, what?! Khloé Kardashian is pregnant. Kylie Jenner is pregnant. Kim Kardashian West is kind of pregnant. At least, she’s expecting via surrogate. WTF is the water in Kardashian-land? This is an actual level-five “we can’t” situation, and we’re having trouble collecting ourselves and moving on with our lives.

And the thing is, we all missed the biggest clue ever that Kardashian was pregnant—back in June. That silence you just heard is the sound of us hanging our heads in shame. Why on Earth didn’t we figure it out? Kardashian posted a flurry of Polaroid photos on her Instagram story feed in June, celebrating her birthday with her fella, NBA star Tristan Thompson. The photos were cute and mushy and whatever — and since they were so run-of-the-Kardashian-mill, we totally missed a very peculiar caption: “Dad + Mom.”

To be fair, we heard rumors that “Dad” and “Mom” are just weird nicknames the couple likes to use. And Kardashian did inquire with her Twitter followers about a cure for her hangover after the party — but that could have been a ruse. It’s all very confusing. So maybe we can be forgiven for not having already used our Nancy Drew sleuth powers to figure this one out.

In April, Kardashian talked to ES Magazine about getting hitched to Thompson. She was enthusiastic about the idea, saying, “I would love to have a family. We’ve talked about it. He [already] is a father, and I know for a fact that he would be an impeccable father.”

She continued to ES, “I definitely want to be a mom. But I don’t put the pressure on it. It’s not like, ‘The clock is ticking.’ I feel in my soul it will happen.” Well, it happened.

Well, at least it seems like it did. Kardashian posted a very toned belly shot to Instagram just four days ago, and commenters are losing their minds in confusion. One wrote, “She’s not pregnant she wouldn’t ruin that body she worked too hard.” We’re pretty sure nothing can “ruin” hard work, for the record.

We’ve got to hand it to all the Kardashian “sources” who have been working overtime leaking info to the media. Kardashian’s big news came by way of People, which reported a source had this to say: “Khloé and Tristan are expecting and they are absolutely thrilled. This isn’t something they were in a rush to announce to the whole world, and it’s only been in just the past week or so that they’ve felt comfortable telling most of their inner circle.”

We are now all officially part of the inner circle, we’re assuming, and expect invites to the trio of christenings. Now, if you’ve lost track of all the contoured Kardashian-Jenner sisters and their offspring, this is Kardashian’s first child. Thompson, on the other hand, knows his way around a burp cloth. He has a son, Prince Oliver, with his ex Jordan Craig. Prince Oliver was born in December 2016, so that means Thompson will be one busy daddy with an infant and a toddler on his hands.

Are you still squinting at the screen trying to keep count so you can explain this hotbed of family fertility to your mother? Us too. On Friday, People dropped the bombshell that — according to those sources again — Kylie Jenner has a baby girl on the way with beau Travis Scott. Yes, another dude with a T name, because the Kardashians (and Kanye West) took all the K’s. Jenner’s debut baby is set to drop in February. And if you’re marking your calendar, Kardashian and Jenner are reportedly due around the same time. “Shut up,” you say. “Why, it’s almost like they planned this baby coup for ratings,” you say.

“Kylie is over the moon about her pregnancy. Khloé and Kylie are both due around the same time. They are approximately four months along… Kylie loves how close-knit her family is and is thrilled to bring that to her own family. She feels more prepared than ever, especially since she will be sharing this journey with Khloé,” said an insider to People. “They are looking at it like a unifying experience for them as sisters.”

Why the Kardashian-Thompson announcement on the heels of Jenner’s? Another source told People, “Things were complicated a bit by Kylie’s announcement as they don’t want to be seen as intruding on that moment for her but it is now reaching a point where Khloé doesn’t want to be openly lying to people, and just staying quiet isn’t going to work anymore.”

And don’t forget poor Kardashian West and Kanye West. They are waiting impatiently for their third child, a girl, who is supposedly arriving in January 2018 via a surrogate.

So there you have it. We may have three new heirs to the Kardashian empire in the span of a month at the top of 2018. It’s either the craziest reality TV coincidence ever or the work of some mad (and very fertile) geniuses.

Nina Dobrev Just Got the Most Sophisticated New Bob and Bangs

Hold everything: Nina Dobrev is giving us major Anna Wintour vibes with her new haircut. She debuted the razor-sharp bob on Wednesday at the Los Angeles premier of her new movie, Flatliners. While the cut might not seem too drastic compared to the lob she’s been sporting, the new look comes with bangs. And we’re not talking about the boho, shaggy bangs we’ve seen grace the faces of stars like Kirsten Dunst or Chloe Mortez—we’re talking ruler-straight, statement bangs.

We have to admit that the look changes Dobrev’s entire vibe, but we’re into it—especially heading into fall and winter. The bangs and bluntness of the cut make Dobrev look sophisticated and mature (not saying she wasn’t either of these things before!). Her hairstylist, Riawna Capri, posted on Instagram that the new look is for an upcoming movie, Lucky Day, in which Dobrev plays a Parisian artist, so naturally they “concocted this chic European look for her character.”

We’re definitely feeling the Parisian ease and elegance in her “#FrenchFringe.”

Aside from her new show-stopping hairstyle, Dobrev threw that antiquated rule about no white after Labor Day out the window (duh) when she wore a demure, simple white ruffled dress from Prabal Gurung. If you’ve been feeling like your hair could use a fresh vibe for fall, tear a page out of Dobrev’s book and get a sharp bob that’ll definitely turn heads this season.

Beyoncé Inked the Cutest Finger Tattoo for Blue Ivy and Her Twins

Beyoncé is breaking the internet with another bombshell Instagram. On Wednesday, the 36-year-old singer posted a photo of her freshly manicured nails wrapped around a gold chain. And though her nails looked lit AF, what really caught our attention were three suspicious marks on her ring finger. After some sleuthing, we can confirm that the mom of three, indeed, has a new tattoo.

The tattoo features three tiny dots aligned vertically on her ring finger. And though, from a glance, the dots look no more than three accidental ink stains, fans were quick to speculate that the marks symbolize the singer’s three children: 5-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and newborn twins Rumi and Sir.

Beyoncé’s new tat wouldn’t be the first time she inked a tribute to a member of the Knowles-Carter family. Years ago, Bey and her husband, Jay Z, inked matching Roman numeral IV tattoos on their respective ring fingers. However, after her tattoo faded over the years, Bey recently touched the art up to now feature the number four with a capital J. As BeyHive members know, four is Beyoncé and Jay Z’s lucky number, with the couple’s respective birthdays and their engagement all landing on the fourth.

Kris and Kylie Jenner Are Reportedly Working on a Maternity Line

As if we couldn’t keep up with the Kardashians enough, Kris and Kylie Jenner are reportedly working on a maternity line together. The news comes a week after the internet-breaking scoop that the 20-year-old reality star is reportedly pregnant with her first child with her boyfriend Travis Scott.

According to The Sun, the 61-year-old momager is cashing in on her daughter’s pregnancy with a new maternity line geared toward younger moms. Per The Sun, Kris has already begun setting up meetings with business heads to discuss the venture. If Kris and Kylie’s maternity line makes it off the ground, the business would add to her already profitable stock. Kylie’s makeup line, Kylie Cosmetics, raked in $420 million in the past 18 months alone, according to Women’s Wear Daily.

“Kris is so happy for Kylie. Not only will she be a grandma again, but it’s a whole new set of business opportunities for her,” a source told The Sun. “She’s thinking maternity fashion for younger mums, and she’s already offering to set up meetings. If Kylie embraced the young mummy market, she could take it over.”

Since finding out about her pregnancy, Kylie has been reportedly “leaning on” her mom and older sister Kim Kardashian for support. According to Us Weekly, the three had a long discussion about Kylie’s options before moving forward with the pregnancy. “Kris is so supportive and she knew this was a Kylie decision,” a source told Us Weekly. “They all wanted Kylie to make the decision for herself and to understand this is what it looks like, this is how your life will change, and Kylie gets that.”

Kylie’s dad, Caitlyn Jenner, is also supportive of her daughter’s choices, though she reportedly worries that now isn’t the best time for Kylie to become a mom. “Caitlyn is supportive of her daughter, of course, but she doesn’t necessarily think this is the right time for Kylie,” another insider told Us Weekly. “She has a hugely successful business and Caitlyn doesn’t want to see that taken away from her.”

At this point, Kylie’s maternity line, her parents’ opinions, and her pregnancy are all rumors, so you should take them with a grain of salt. Still, if Kylie is able to corner the maternity market, we’re close to positive that she’ll be able to rule the world.

Trippy Double-Vision Makeup

If you stare at this look too long, your eyes genuinely start to hurt (which might be the hallmark of a good costume?). Some steady hands and relatively OK drawing abilities required.
