Kim Kardashian West wants to "explore" surrogacy.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has previously vowed not to bear more children after suffering complications while pregnant with daughter North, now three, and Saint, 10 months, but it seems she and husband Kanye West are looking at alternative ways to expand their family further.
In a clip from next week's episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim told her shocked-looking family: "So I've come to the conclusion that I just want to explore surrogacy."
The 36-year-old beauty admitted shortly after Saint was born that her 39-year-old rapper spouse was already talking about wanting a third baby - but she had refused.
She said: "I said no way. I was so set on my two kids and how happy I was with my life the way that it is, but Kanye has been mentioning it every single day for the past 10 days. I'm like why is he doing this to me?!"
And it is no surprise that Kim isn't keen on carrying another child as she really struggled with her two pregnancies.
She explained previously: "With the issues I had last time, my risk of having pre-eclampsia and placenta accreta are increased and there's not a whole lot I can do to prevent it, so my anxiety is a little high leading up to my delivery.
"In a very rare case, I might need a hysterectomy after delivery if my condition is severe enough, but luckily my doctor doesn't think this will happen. So as time goes on, I am stressing out less and trying to go with the flow ...
"We induced my labour and I had North soon after. Right after delivery, the placenta usually then comes out. Mine did not. My placenta stayed attached inside my uterus, which is a condition called placenta accreta ...
"My doctor had to stick his entire arm in me and detach the placenta with his hand, scraping it away from my uterus with his fingernails. How disgusting and painful! (sic)"
Meanwhille, Kanye West spent $30,000 on a couch - and put it into storage.
The 39-year-old rapper reportedly left wife Kim Kardashian West furious after spending "nearly all his money" on furniture for their home in Calabasas, California, only to tell interior designer Sandy Gallin he hated the expensive items he'd handpicked for the abode.
A source told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column: "Kanye walked into the house, decided he hated all the furniture brought in by Gallin, and demanded it be returned to the vendors.

"But they refused to take it back, so he took it all out and threw it into storage.
"He then spent a fortune on a new set of furniture."
Kanye has now hired Axel Vervoordt to work on their house, but his 36-year-old wife - who suffered a terrifying ordeal when she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris last month - is growing increasingly frustrated with the delays.
The source added: "Kanye spends so much money and he's holding everything up. The house still isn't ready. Kim just wants to be settled at home, especially after everything that happened in Paris."
It has also been claimed the Yeezy designer is infuriating people in the fashion world with his constant quest for better advice and his abrasive manner.
The source said: "He's a wreck! Everyone in the fashion business thinks he's crazy. He'll start taking advice from someone successful, stop listening 15 minutes later, and then move on to someone else. He constantly fights with everyone. He's even fighting with Adidas."
However, another insider insisted the Famous hitmaker - who has children North, 10 months, and Saint, three, with his spouse - is respected by the influential figures who matter most.
A friend said: "To say the fashion industry hates him is totally false. His friends in fashion include the most influential powerful people in the business. Anna [Wintour], Carine [Roitfeld], Demna [Gvasalia], Riccardo [Tisci], Balmain, on and on and on. Bernard Arnault. A handful of bitter fashion writers try to take him down all the time."
