While the duo initially pursued in vitro fertilisation to expand their family, Kardashian revealed in a May episode of her family’s show that they were “officially done” and wanted to conceive naturally instead.

“We would love a baby more than anything, but I just really believe in what God has in store for us,” she explained at the time. “If that’s a baby, then I believe that it will happen.”
