Reality star Kourtney Kardashian — whose spinoff show with younger sister Khloe, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, premieres Sunday — is expecting her first child, she confirms to E!.

“We were in the Everglades, and I kept feeling nauseous and sick. I just kept thinking something wasn’t feeling right,” she explained. “I’ve never missed a period in my life. Literally, I took like 20 tests; I went to the doctor and he confirmed the news. I was just so shocked.”

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, 30, will welcome her baby — dad is Scott Disick — “right around Christmas time.”

Tatyana on

WHAT? Umm, wow. This came out of the blue. :O Congratulations to her and the father then!! (:

HeatherR on

Holy heck! This is a shocker! I just saw the previews for her new E! show and I was thinking the show seemed a bit racy. It sure gave me the impression that she was more into the party scene than the diaper scene. Lol

Cortney on

On the keeping up show a couple years ago I remember her thinking she was pregnant but she wasn’t and seemed happy about it. I hope she has grown up a bit since then. I will not be watching the Miami show.

Mia on

Wow,.. it is true! I had been reading reports on various blogs all day + came here to see if it has been confirmed. That is definitely very random, but I remember in one of the seasons of “The Kardashians” (too lazy to write the whole title), she thought she might be pregnant, but wasn’t. I wonder if her/Scott are back together? This is very very random. I hope all is well.

Doreen on

Her new reality show looks pretty racy….how in the world are they going to fit a baby into this picture now. I’m not so sure about this new reality show now with her being pregnant. The guy she’s with kept cheating on her!! It’s bad enough to stay with him when you know he’s cheating…but NOT using protection with this guy?! I’m sorry but she knew he kept cheating on her. I’m glad she’s keeping the baby however.

christina on

Oh :( If he is the father, then I hope their relationship has dramatically improved from how it was portrayed on “Keeping Up”. I did NOT have a good impression of him.

Micheley on

I was very shocked when I read this over at JJ. I love the Kardashians, I really do. And I am a faithful watcher of their reality show.
I just wish that Kourtney was in a more stable position in her life. I really don’t think she is ready for this, neither was I when my first was born, but I think she will step up. Hopefully.

Lacey on

OMG! I’m stunned! Congratulatons! I hope Scott’s not the father.

Ashley on

wow this so came out of left field. i cant see her being a mom but good luck to her and hopefully shell stepup as a great mom

L on

OMGGG I never expected this in a million years!! Although their family is a bit crazy there is no doubt that baby will be loved! I wonder what Kris’ reaction to this was….AHH!!

monica on

ahhh!! i kno this baby is going 2 be loved i just hope its not scott’s baby and that she found some 1 better in miami although she was rumored to be linked to terrance j host of “106 & park” …i hope she follows in nicole richie & kendras footsteps and surprises us with a turn around

cassie on

wow!! wonder how far along

Stella on

I just saw her on Chelsea Handler’s show, and they were commenting on how she was recently making out with a girl in Miami and Khloe was saying how she got more intimate with the girl than that. Kourtney didn’t deny any of it and conceded to most of it as a “drunk” thing…I wonder how recently making out with girls in clubs while drinking meshes with being pregnant??

P.S. Don’t get me wrong…I am not judging her sexual orientation – My criticism is solely targeted at the reckless behavior while pregnant (I’m assuming she is more than 3 months since she is announcing the pregnancy)

Stephany on

WOW!

Liliana on

Wow! I definitely wasn’t expecting this one. Congratulations to Kourtney and the father.

If the father is Scott, I hope the two are in a more stable relationship than what was previously seen on the show.

TheFirstPositiveHolly on

Whoa- now this is something I WAS NOT expecting. I follow Kourtney on Twitter wonder if she said something, I havent logged in a few days. Just like Kim and Reggie’s split. I wonder who the father is. This is so shocking. So shocking. But congrats to Kourtney and the father.

JMO on

Interesting.

I guess her mom is happy she’s made it no secret she wants to be a grandmom…the girls even got her a chimp to take care of for a day to appease her need for wanting a grandchild….it was quite funny!

Tina. on

lol cool, i like the Kardashians.

Nadine on

I think Kourtney will make a fabulous mother! She will also have a big family support team to help her out in time of need. Congrats to Kourtney and the lucky man!

J on

wow

J on

my goodness

Erika on

Wow I wasn’t expecting this. But it’s the same reaction I had when I found out Nicole Richie was pregnant 2 years ago, and she seems to be an amazing mother. Hopefully the same will happen with Kourtney.

Mina on

Kris Jenner must be over the moon! LOL I like the Kardashians (wild & crazy as they may be). I think Kourtney will be a great mommy! I hope no one judges her. Lets remember Nicole Richie before she settle down & started a family. Motherhood bettered her.

Not only that, Kourntney is the tamest of the 3 if you ask me. I still love them all though. Good luck Kourtney!

Beverley on

How does a 30 year old get pregnant accidentally? And how does she then go out drinking and partying and doing dangerous things while pregnant? Hopefully, the baby will make her stop being a drunken party girl.

eronne on

Isn’t it fantastic? Another hot mama is on the way.

A on

Wow, that’s surprising! congrats for her! As for the “drinking/partying/reckless behavior while pregnant” comments, reality shows are often filmed several months in advance (a quick google search shows the show was announced in April so it may have already been in production by then) so if her wild Miami life did overlap with her becoming pregnant, I doubt it was by very long.

Chelsie on

Wow, wasn’t expecting that.
I just saw her interview on E!. She said she found out while they were in the Everglades and she’s due right around Christmas.

I wish her the best.

Emmy on

Okay, that’s it, this is a sign of the impending apocalypse

Gina on

So what if she she was wild and crazy and was with a girl on the show? She was single, young and at that point did not have a kid…why not live up life if you are in Miami, you know?

Also…reality shows are usually filmed in advance, so chances are she wasn’t pregnant during all of that partying.

She has her own business that is obvisouly doing well, a large family that loves each other, I am sure she will be fine.

TMia on

Awww… more and more celeb babies! Loves it! I believe Kourtney will be a great mom. People shouldn’t be so quick to judge based on a “reality” show, we all know how exagerated those can be. I’m sure Kris and Bruce are ecstatic.
I love the Kardashian-Jenner family, they seem so down to earth.

Marissa on

Well, I am shocked, thats for sure. I didn’t see this one coming! Congratulations to Kourtney and the father! Best Wishes~

Mia on

Another Christmas baby, its been a busy March/April this year! I still think its a huge shock. I hope everything turns out okay. I really wonder if its her on/off boyfriend or if it was a random situation in Miami? At least she is the oldest of the Kardashians to be pregnant + it’s not one of the younger ones.

brannon on

Fun! She’s 30, financially secure, all about family and full of loved ones for her new little baby. Congrats! Hope people are happy for her!

Courtney on

Does ANYONE….ANYONE get married and have kids anymore..? As my own daughters get older I notice more and more this party girl/carefree/I’m-pregnant-out-of-the-blue-who-cares-about-marriage thing. I realize I (at 33) am very old fashion. Its ok…blast me.

lady on

That reality show was filmed months ago they don’t even live there anymore. @Monica, that what Khole not Kourtney! I think she will step up and be fabolous, I do believe Scott is the daddy unfortunetly! Another Xmas baby!

Tee on

Courtney- no blasting by me! I completely agree with you… in fact, I take it a step farther. I simply don’t believe in pre-marital sex!

marimel on

Courtney, I’m only 22 and have the exact same view as you, so I guess we can be old-fashioned together. And, actually, going along with Tee, I don’t believe in premarital sex either. However (I feel like I need a disclaimer for this) this is my stance for me, and me only. I realize we all do what we feel is best for our lives and I have no problem with that. None ( i mean zilch, nada, zero) of my friends are virgins, and none of them are married either. As long as they don’t rub their sex life in my face, who am I to say what they are doing the wrong thing? What is right for me isn’t right for everybody.

Congratulations to Kourtney, though! She seems to have a really great support system with her family, so I have no doubt she will prove to be more than capable of raising a child. Her ex(?)-boyfriend though, if he is the father, is another story. That guy comes across as such a sketchy moron.

Courtney on

Tee, we can stand together…I do not agree with it either!

Courtney on

Marimel, I hope whem my daughters are 22 they will believe in no premarital sex….I was a virgin at 23 when I met my husband, we have been married 10 years and have 4 kids…I wouldn’t change it for the world.

Brittany on

Congrats to her, i think she will make a great mother.
As for those who said she partied and drank while pregnant, she stated that she found out she was pregnant on the season finale. So step down off your soapboxes please.

shayla on

I bet joe francis (girls gone wild) is the father. Didn’t he ask her to be his baby’s mama!?

CelebBabyLover on

Doreen- First of all, we don’t even know if the guy who kept cheating on her was the father. Also, how in the world do we know she wasn’t using protection? The only 100 percent effective method of birth control is abstinence!

marimel- Great comment! I have the same views as you on premarital sex- I don’t believe in it, and it’s not something I’d ever choose to do. However, I don’t judge people who don’t share my view and don’t wait until marriage.

marimel on

Courtney, so long as you express your beliefs to your children without shoving it down their throat… or go for the scare tactic and be like THIS WILL HAPPEN IF…. hahaha, I’m sure you’re children will be amazing young adults.

and, you give me hope! I’d like to meet the man I marry within the next couple years and hopefully have at least 4 little rugrats that follow. But there is one thing for sure, I too will never regret saving myself for my husband! (Wishing high here, but I hope he managed to save himself for me too)

eternalcanadian on

Yay, yet another unmarried celebrity that didn’t practice safer sex. Funny thing, on her show she had a couple pregnancy scares and was “lectured” by either her mum or a sister on being more careful with contraceptives. Guess she didn’t listen.

L on

Marriage isnt for EVERYONE Courtney! Although it is correct sometimes I still do believe everyone should have a right to be happy in their own ways! God does not bless people with more then they can handle, I think this baby is an angel and will be cherished! As far as Joe Francis*ahem* they may hang with him but I doubt anything further. Scott is the daddy, obviously!

Mia on

If she is due in December, it means she became pregnant in March, so was the season finale filmed in March? I know usually these shows are filmed 4-6 months in advance, which would make sense its August + its premiering now. And technically, the first 3 months of pregnancy (First Trimester), the fetus is fine if exposed to any drugs or alcohol, it has like extra protection to keep it safe.

Colleen on

How does a 30 year old get pregnant accidentally? Well, the same way a 43-year old does or a 13 year old does. Misusing birth control, condoms break, forgetting a pill, not using BC, etc. Also, when used completely accurately, the pill is 99% effective. The way most women use it, I believe it is about 90% accurate (research-based findings, just can’t find the results now). As far as women and men having premarital sex, that is the norm now. Many babies are “unplanned” and born “out of wedlock”, and it’s not just to 16 year olds! For those of you who believe in abstinence- know that (research based findings again) girls who wear purity rings are JUST AS LIKELY to have sex as those who don’t believe in abstinence and when those ring-wearers have sex, they are 10% less likely to use birth control.

Jessica on

Wow..I wasn’t expecting this at all!
She’s far along then.. like the same as Kendra lol

Erin on

A piece of jewelry and paper don’t make a commitment. I don’t care if people are married. I think if you’re in a loving, honest, supportive relationship and you want to start a family, go for it! But, she’s treating it the same way I would treat finding a $20 in my jean pocket. “Oh, cool!”

Sandra on

Courtney, I’m 20 and have the same view as you, so I guess we can be old-fashioned together. Get married and then have babies!

But still; congratulations to Kourtney and the father-to-be.

TV on

Seriously hoping that the father is not Scott. I know they recently got back together a few weeks ago but he still cheats on her. He was around Las Vegas the other weekend and Scott was all over some redheaded chick. Definitely not behavior of a guy that is in a relationship and supposedly impending father.

ERICKA on

PLEASE not let the father be that loser of an ex bf she had.

Congrats to her…although a bit outta left field.

Q on

My first reaction was I hope Scott isn’t the dad. He treated her like crap & I believe he was younger than her & it sowed. I can’t believe she’s so far along & there haven’t been any rumors or spec about it. I’m shocked! That rarely happens these days especially since she hasn’t exactly been hiding out.

streamate247.com on

is it scott? i hope not i really don’t like this guy! but still Congratulations to Kourtney.

streamate247.com on

Holy heck! This is a shocker! I just saw the previews for her new E! show and I was thinking the show seemed a bit racy.

hcecilia on

@ Courtney: I don’t think your views are old fashioned at all. I may have a daughter due to premarital sex, but your views are good ones. Unfortunately, there are many parents that just assume that the people on television and the kids they go to school with will somehow be a good influence so they don’t have to check up or talk to their kids about very important issues. My parents were very open about sex and everything that goes along with it, to which I held onto my virginity almost throughout my high school years – which is actually pretty damn good in this day and age (I’m 24). I can’t say the same for some of my peers whose parents worked long hours. As great as CBB is, it also supports the very issues that can’t be discussed in schools because of religion and that teaching about sex is promoting having it.

hcecilia on

I mean, there are eleven year old girls that LOVE “Sex and the City”, but what do they know about the concepts and dynamics of that show? Girls are wanting to be the very people on the magazines and no one is doing anything about it!

Regardless, I hope Kourtney can be an adult and be a good mother.

Ruby on

To everyone who is slamming pre-marital sex can I just point out that not everyone who has sex outside of marriage is promiscuous and wild.

I have been with my partner for 9 years. We have a beautiful 10 month old daughter. We are not married. Our relationship and our family is every bit as valid as that of married people. We are devoted to each other and committed to raising our daughter together in a loving happy family.

Marriage is not a necessity to do this.

I know little of Kourtney but she is a mature woman with a good family behind her. I’m sure her baby will change her life for the better and show her how much more there is out there than parties and guys.

Harley on

I’m not surprised in the least bit that one of them is pregnant. They are right up there with Paris Hilton for me. Hopefully she grows up.

RIP Michael on

Wow she is pretty darn far into her pregnancy…she’s due along with
Kendra. Ha Kris is gonna be a grandma! That’s really going to make her feel old…

Can’t wait to see that documented on the show. I’ll actually watch the next season. Be the best mother u can be Kourtney.

Heather on

Babies are blessing no matter if the parents are married or not. Congrats to Kourtney.

jessie on

congrats to kourtney, babies are blessings

Chris on

People should know that birth control isn’t 100% effective. But maybe she wanted to get pregnant and was shocked that it finally happened? I don’t know, she’s a bit old to be so shocked about actually getting pregnant especially when she already had at least one false alarm before. On a positive note I do think this baby will have a lot of fun in this wacky family! They seem to really love and support each other.

Lissette on

I was really surprised hearing this but am so happy for her and the family! I’m sure her mother is beyond thrilled! If she’s due in December then she must now the gender by now. I have a feeling the father will end up being Scott.

QueenB on

Goodness these sister are full of suprises….i remember reading that KIM and her boyfriend were house hunting….the following day they have broken up……and now Kourtney is pregnant…….wow…anyway i’m so happy for her.

JC on

How convenient, considering the new show premieres Sunday! Definitely a timed announcement IMO.

12 Weeks Pregnant on

Congrats and the big question who’s daddy?

Jana on

If Kourtney is due “around Christmas”, that would make her about five months pregnant. Are there any recent pics of Kourtney displaying her baby bump? I’m surprised the media didn’t beat this announcment to the punch by speculating a pregnanacy based on a paparazzi pic or something. I’m sure the new reality show will chornicle Kourtney’s pregnancy so this announcment was strategically made right before the show premieres. I wish Kourtney all of the best.

Moira on

Recent surveys are showing that more and more people in America are returning to conservative morals. More people are against abortion now than are in favor of it. More people believe in not living together if not married, more people believe they should marry before having kids. It doesn’t surprise me that people think that a party girl who gets pregnant is doing it the wrong way. If every baby is a blessing, as so many people say, then why is there so many abortions?

And marriage is a way to show the world your committment to each other. It is also a religuous and legal commitment to each other. Living together or having kids out of wedlock is not and never will be. You may think that your relationship with your “partner” is as special as a husband and wife relationship, but it is not, in the eyes of most people or the law.

Laila on

Best of luck to anyone who “chooses” to become a mother! However those three girls annoy me to no end. Their lifestyle is such a game!!! They have so many opportunities that are constantly landing in their laps and for the life of me I cannot figure out why! Now Kourtney is pregnant because it’s in vogue to have a baby! They seem to live in alternate universe. Kris the mother constantly supports their wild behavior despite having two younger daughters that look up to their older sisters.

T on

scott is the father. she just said so on the today show.

gaia's mom on

Interesting. Stuff happens, people have babies and I’m going to say that most babies probably are not planned. Kourtney is 30, loaded and has a good family base so she’s better off than most. Congrats to her I love bebes9

These days marriage is not indictive of anything, many people enter marriage with prenupts and divorce in their minds. Having said that I am married, got married kinda spur of the moment right after graduation 3 yrs ago at 21 but I don’t really feel married, I still mistakenly refer to my husband as my bf and usually call him my “partner” . I think that’s part of the reason why our marriage is going so well, we don’t put too much weight on the fact that we made this pious eternal comittment. If we thought about it that the pressure would kill us both!

As far as ‘saving’ yourself, it never appealed to me. Its not something I can understand really. I can understand it a bit because its taught in religion…but I tend to think practically and the whole virginity as a”gift” just seems so odd to me.

MammaDucky on

I’m too lazy to go back and find the poster’s name and actually quote it, but did someone REALLY just say that during the first trimester it’s alright to expose a developing fetus to drugs and alcohol? SERIOUSLY? Yeah, cuz that’s only when the brain, heart, lungs and other major organs are starting to develop.
When doctors tell a pregnant woman who is scared about any partying she did before she knew she was pregnant, it’s usually just to calm her down. MOST women find out they’re pregnant quite early and stop doing those things, therefore it usually doesn’t become an issue (but still can).
Best of luck to her. She’s lucky to have (what appears to be at least) a loving and supportive family.

escivetti on

Baby Daddy is Ex-boyfriend Scott, just saw her interviewed on Kathy Lee and Hoda , She said there back together.

Ruby on

Moira – I assume your rant is directed at me

“And marriage is a way to show the world your committment to each other. It is also a religuous and legal commitment to each other. Living together or having kids out of wedlock is not and never will be. You may think that your relationship with your “partner” is as special as a husband and wife relationship, but it is not, in the eyes of most people or the law.”

My partner and I are atheist so have no religious compulsion to get married.

We also don’t feel any need to as you put it “show the world” our commitment as our love is ours and we live our family life day to day happily, filled with love, respect and laughter and without needing to prove it to anyone.

I guess that’s what makes you and I different. I have no urge to go around shoving my opinions or beliefs down people throats and condemn other peoples relationships as “not special”.

Maybe I suggest you take up a hobby or something dear.

gaia's mom on

Are the kardashians that wild??? I’ve watched a few episodes of keeping up up they’re always either home, or at that store dash or with their family. Now Kourts getting compared to pre baby coked out driving on the wrong side of the road nicole richie?? Am I missing something?

Kristin on

I actually think Kourtney will be a great mom. She has four sisters, one brother, Bruce, and Kris to love the new baby. I think Kourtney and Kendra will be just like Nicole Richie and how she matured and changed her priorities for Harlow. I also do not want Scott to be the father. The past episode around two years ago when Kourtney thought she was pregnant with Scott’s baby, he did not seem thrilled at all and probably would not stay with Kourtney. He seems like a shady guy and definitely not a good father.

Chelsea on

From what I’ve seen of Scott on the show he’s definitiely not as bad as some of you are making him out to be.

brannon on

Wow moira. Ruby pretty much covered what I wanted to say but I strongly suggest you check your “research.”.

Tee on

Marimel- You are absolutely right! My beliefs towards pre-marital sex are right for me, but that doesn’t mean that they are necessarily right for everyone. Thank you for pointing that out. I feel the same way that you do… I just hadn’t put that “disclamer” on it! None of my friends are virgins either. I am 28 years old and people think I’m nuts when I tell them I’m a virgin!

Emmy- Your comment made me laugh!

L- Courtney never said marriage was right for everyone.

Ruby- Nobody is “slamming” pre-marital sex. I’m sorry if that’s how it comes across to you. I’ve been rather impressed with how mature the comments have been on this story… no name calling, ect. What comment made you think we were slamming pre-marital sex?

Heather and Moira- You’re right!

jordyn on

gaia’s mom- I’m with you! I have been a faithful watcher of Keeping Up, and if any of them are wild it’s Khloe, the youngest one. Kourtney has always seemed the most mature to me, so I don’t think this party girl persona that people are putting on her is fair at all!

Tina. on

thats frine if someone doesent believe in premarital sex, but theres no need to bash someone who doesent. if Kourtney doesent, thats fine. theres no harm in it.

Moira on

Ruby, you are entitled to choose to live a lifestyle that has no legal recourse to you if it ends, it has a stigma attached to it. There is no commitment that is as legal and lifelong as marriage. Marriages take a lot of effort to get out of, living together doesn’t. Just because you think your relationship is as special as a marriage is, doesn’t mean that I have to think it is. That’s my right, just as it is yours to live life on your terms. But you cannot control what people’s opinions of your lifestyle is.

A link to info about the abortion issue I references earlier is
http://pewresearch.org/pubs/1212/abortion-gun-control-opinion-gender-gap
I don’t have time right now to look up the other study.
Brannon, maybe you should do some “research” before you say I didn’t.

Brooklyn on

Wow. I so was not expecting this. Congrats to her though. I hope everything goes alright!

Tina. on

fine*

TheFirstPositiveHolly on

Courtney, I can’t argue with you at all. My mom and I both believe that you should have babies after you get married. It’s just the way it is, you should. Well, Hank&Kendra got married right around the time that she found out she was expecting. I hope that Kourtney can step up, but I don’t think she is going to marry Scott. Anyways, I do agree with you. NO blasts from me at all. I believe it is right to get married before having babies and I’m younger than most people on here… this is just the way i feel it’s not right to have babies before getting married.

Tina. on

that baby is gonna have such a life life, with the family that is waiting for it to be born. i wish i was that baby… such a huge fun family.

deanna on

I saw the post about revealing who the baby dady is Scott he acted like a jerk at times but he wasnt that bad. Cant see any pics with baby bump her and Kendra are due at same time Kendra has a bump but Kendra wears tighter clothes anyway hope all works out well for them

Shannon on

Marriage these days is NOT always a lifelong commitment. Not in half of the cases. And it can be just as easy to get out of as living together. Kudos to people who can make it a lifetime. But I just dont think it’s all that realistic anymore for people to think marrige is always a forever commitment.

That being said, I dont believe it takes a marriage certificate to prove a couple is ready to have kids. I think a couple who lives together, who have been in a loving, committed, long-term relationship have a far better chance at raising a baby together than a couple who ran out after a couple weeks, got hitched in Vegas and got pregnant. Ability to raise a baby has nothing to do with your marital status, it’s about the kind of relationship you have with your partner.

jmae on

Why are so many people being judgemental? Not one of us here is a saint. If you watch her TV show closely, you’ll see that out of all of them Kourtney seems actually pretty level headed. She graduated from college, she’s the oldest child, she actually works in the stores she runs, she’s extremely protective of her siblings, etc. Unplanned pregnancies happen every day. I have no doubt that Kourtney and her tight knit family will welcome this baby with loving, open arms.

Now, let’s congratulate Kourtney on her impending little blessing and stop throwing stones. Thank you! :)

Dawn on

Moira, making a commitment to someone is what is important in the eyes of god. If anyone reads the bible you will not see one note on whether or not a piece of paper makes a marriage. If anyone thinks that they need or want that paper and those rings then all the more power to them but it does not make your commitment any stronger than anyone else’s in the eyes of God. Let’s try and remember that so many things that we learn in church come from man and not our Father. As long as one is living in a way that harms no others and are dedicated to each other that is what is the important thing. I will however disagree with you on something–getting out of any relationship takes time and causes pain; don’t think because there is no legal papers involved that it is cute, easy and pain free to leave a relationship.

Mariel on

WOW
I DIDNT KNOW SHE IS 30!!
SHE LOOKS SO GOOD! CONGRATULATIONS IM REALLY HAPPY FOR HER. IM PRETTY SURE SHE IS GONNA BE A GREAT MAMA, AND KIM AND KHLOE AMAZING AUNTS!!!!

marimel on

gaia’s mom– i think people forget that “reality” shows are so far removed from reality (I guess I should retract my comment on Scott coming off as a sketchy moron, that may just be his character in the show haha). Anyway, their show is soooooo scripted, and while they do party on the show, every interview I’ve ever seen of them, they seem mature and composed. Plus, as someone else notes, Khloe is the crazy one. But even then, she’s more just way too vocal about all things relating to sex and drops the f-bomb every other word. But none of them seem to be anywhere near comparable to pre-Harlow Nicole Richie!

Ruby, where did anyone “slamming” (did you really get that from the comments???) premarital sex say everyone who does so is promiscuous and wild??

and, finally, not everyone who chooses to remain abstinent does so for religious reasons. While I attended Catholic schools from ages 5-21 and have been taught that premarital sex is a sin, I don’t believe that. The Catholic Church also preaches against birth control, IVF and single-sex marriages, and I don’t support those ideas either. I’m just Paranoid Patty and am scared of being put in a situation before I am ready for it (ie, kids), so I have chosen the only sure fire way to avoid it. Which is precisely why I said premarital sex is right for me, but not right for everybody.

Doreen on

E! has been showing previews of her reality show with her sis Khloe and it’s pretty racy. I mean if Kourtney is 30….she needs to grow up!!! This baby is prob what she needs to help settle her down a bit as she’s WILD! Hopefully, these women that are pregnant now….Kendra & Kourtney will grow up and be role models *hopefully but not holding my breathe* like Nicole Ritchie has been since she became a Mother.

Crystal on

I am a big fan of the Kardashians and a religious follower of their show. When I heard this news I was shocked! Kourtney looked super cute on the Today Show. While I am excited for her and this wonderful journey she is about to embark on I can’t believe Scott is the dad. I mean I can believe it but he just always seems like such a jerk on the show. Maybe fatherhood will change him but I seriously doubt it! Anyways, CONGRATULATIONS to Scott and Kourtney!!

I am 21
Not with the father
Engaged in premartial sex
Live with my mom…..

Have something to say now?
Remember you do not know everyone story and should not place blame or judgment atleast until you know the true story. Get over it, if it doesnt directly affect you than it is NONE of your business.

First, I’m glad she came out with who the father is because on E! last night, it sounded like she was using that as a ploy for people to watch the Miami show coming up. Which to me essentially seems like she’s using her pregnancy to sell the show..guess someone said something to her on the way it was coming off and she spilled.

Second, why, after Scott’s track record on the show (cheating multiple times) would it be a good idea for her to marry him? Yes, I am also old fashioned as well, BUT obviously this baby was not planned and just because someone is a father of a child, does not mean they are right to be the husband of the mother.

Third, the previews of the new show are scandalous! Also, so were alot of the interviews Khloe and Kourtney were doing before this came out. However, I do believe she finds out while filming the show so we will find out what happened and I’m sure she quit the partying as soon as she found out.

dawn on

Oh… Lets remember something…

No pregnancy is “Unplanned” for the simple fact if you are sleeping with someone with birthcontrol or with not you should now in the back of your head that I can become pregnant!!!!

If you dont want kids then dont have sex, sorry but I get so sick of women saying that ” I dont know how this happen, or it wasnt planned” if you have sex then its planned….

Dawn on

dawn- I am going to disagree with you. If your wanted outcome was to get pregnant, then the pregnancy is planned. Let’s not confuse unplanned with unwanted though; it seems like “unplanned” is given a bad rap.

Undecided on

@dawn

Because birth control can fail. Do you just have sex for reproduction?

Beverley on

Why are we supposed to glorify another unplanned pregnancy from a woman who was being promiscuous and being a party girl and is so far from motherly right now. Luckily there are still a few months for her to get her act together.

Dawn on

@Beverley–who says that you can’t be a major partier and then become a good parent? What you do when you don’t have a dependent is usually a lot different than from who you are when you have kids. Let’s not judge what kind of mother anyone will be based on what they did before they had a child.

Jessicad on

That’s crazy! I bet it’s a girl, she should be able to find out soon if she’s that far along. I was 26 when I got pregnant, it was an accident but a blessing. Some of you crack me up saying sex is for reproduction, true, but it’s also for fun!! You just have to be very responsible and picky about your partner. I’m one of the ones who doesn’t want to get married, it scares me. Maybe I just haven’t met the right guy though:) I think if you want to get married that’s great, if not, also great! Whatever works best for you.

monica on

not at all suprised she is preggo

Keri on

Geesh. Scott cheats on her left, right and sideways and not only does she have UN protected sex with him, she gets pregnant.

No one will ever accuse those Kardashian girls of being genius’ will they?

I couldn’t care less if she was married, gay, or having sex for sport but for Christ’s sake don’t have a baby with a PROVEN cheater.

Yup, birth control does fail. That’s why you should at least avoid sex with your no for good CHEATING ex.

Good luck to that baby. At least your family is well off and will certainly be able to finance your therapy down the line.

Undecided on

@jessicad

I agree with you! My comment was directed at Dawn as she is claiming that everytime she has sex she is planning for a baby to be the outcome! Really??? That just is a weird way of thinking to me!

Moore on

I’m not surprised she’s pregnant. I think it was only a matter of time. These girls only act like teens from what I see but they’re fairly up there in age. Not only that but she already mentioned that she doesn’t remember to take the pill hence the previous scare. It was bound to happen. If she was actively trying to prevent it she wouldn’t have sex or would be diligent in preventing it, doubling up or something.
I’m with you though, Courtney, first comes marriage then comes sex and eventually a baby when the time comes. Sex may be fun and is not just for reproduction but, for me, the opposite (pre-marital) will not be the norm no matter how often it happens.

Mia on

Well, I hope her + Scott can work things out, they have a baby together now. It just seems she has such a care-free/casual attitude about having a baby. I hope she realizes what a big commitment it is + you know her mother is like “ecstatic” LOL

And technically the only birth control is abstinence, but nobody-realistically-is going to go on that route. Most birth controls are 95-99% effective, if used correctly.

Diane on

All life is precious, BUT, I don’t have to agree with how that life was conceived.

Amy on

Moira-
I would be willing to bet that Ruby doesn’t have to deal with this so called stigma you speak of because she probably chooses not to associate with people who would judge her like that!!
My parents are married but they have raised me my whole life to believe that as long as I am in a loving committed relationship that’s all that matters. 50% of marriages end in divorce- what a commitment… For all you know your marriage could fail and her partnership could stay in intact, and vice versa, you never know!
Marriage does NOT make every relationship work.
I’m an atheist and so is my boyfriend, neither of us can EVER imagine getting married, and I see no issue in that. I really don’t know anyone who would judge us for that….

Liz on

You know Kim is SO jealous right now, b/c her sister has more important news than she does. Everyone has forgotten all about how “newsworthy” her break up and new haircolor are. Ha ha!!!

Moore on

“but nobody-realistically-is going to go on that route.”
I take that route (know people who do too) with no problem and it works for me.

gaia's mom on

Your choice is who you chose to be;and if your causin to harm, then your alright with me.-

Seriously tho, what is all the judgement about? So some people don’t get married, why does that scare you so much? I use the word scare because when people are so judgemental of other lifestyles it usually because it frightens them in someway.

As a happily married woman I understand Ruby and Amy! If one doesn’t want to ever get married as long as that committment is there its all the same. My issue is with people who say they want to get married and drag their feet doing the humpty hump all around town and populating the earth on their way. Why don’t you guys attack those people instead of the happily monogamous people just trying to raise decent people like everyone else.

mmh on

I have always believed like “dawn” does — if you are “ready” for the responsibility of sex, you better be ready for the responsibility of a possible pregnancy OR the possibility of an STD. If you don’t accept that these things can happen, you had better NOT be having sex.

Amanda on

Oh wow. I thought CBB moderated the comments. I’ve never seen the show, and barely know who this girl is, but the father of the baby is being slammed left and right. It’s ridiculous. What happened to the name-calling policy? Let’s not forget that even though these people are “famous,” they are still people, just like you and I. Nobody here knows anything about the true situations of the lives of these people. All we know are the “characters” they play. As far as the premarital sex argument goes…marriage is, no matter how you want to look at it, a legal institution before it is a religious one. You don’t have to be married by a minister/preacher for your marriage to be legal…it’s the papers that are filed by the state that make it so. How dare some posters insinuate that someone’s relationship is more valid or better than someone else’s simply because they are married? And why the sudden concern about premarital sex in THIS post? How many celebrity parents aren’t married? A fair amount of them! Where was this venom regarding Jennifer Hudson or Nicole Richie or any of a plethora of celebrities whose relationship isn’t “valid” in the eyes of some of the posters on here? The hypocrisy is blinding. And what happened to CBB’s monitoring of the subject of religion? I just don’t get it. If you don’t like the idea of non-married people having babies, and therefore having sex, then CBB may not be the best site for you to frequent. I’m honestly appalled by the lack of consideration, moderation, and hubris in this post. It blows my mind.

Oh, and I’m bisexual. I kissed a few girls while I was pregnant. Does that make me guilty of being a crazy party girl? I’ve been happily married for over five years, and of course the hubby was fine with it, but does that make me a bad mom or a bad person? Definitely not. Some of you really need a ladder to help you get down, your horses are so high.

Lisa on

I only read a few posts and got annoyed.

First of all, a 30 year old can get accidentally pregnant just as easily as a 16 year old.

Second of all, it said she was due in December so you figure out how far along she is.

Finally, it said that Scott is the father so quit saying you hope he isn’t. Even if he isn’t the best person to be with, it is what it is.

I wish people would take 30 seconds and read the post before putting in a response.

With all that said and done…congrats to Kourtney.

dawn on

Unwanted and Unplanned same thing… If you dont want a baby or not ready for a baby then lets practice safe sex or none at all….

Its a excuse that people who are not responsiable say and yes sex is for fun and reproduction, but you have to know if you have sex there will and can result in a baby or std….

sage on

I am 20 and I have always believed it was marriage then kids. This is coming from someone whos parents have been together 21 years and have NEVER been married.
As great as my parents relationship is I don’t agree with it. I for one DO believe in Marriage. Yeah the divorce rate here is CRAZY. But that speaks voulumes about how BIG of a COMMITMENT marriage is and not to be taken lightly.Yes 50 percent of Marriages end in divorce it says nothing about the union of marriage itself, but it speaks voulumes about some not all the COUPLES who are getting maaried and then divorce. I think the question is why more and more people today can’t keep a relationship together. I am talking about both those who are married and those who are not.

DAWN-If anyone thinks that they need or want that paper and those rings then all the more power to them but it does not make your commitment any stronger than anyone else’s in the eyes of God.

True enough but in the say breathe you don’t think God would be pleased with someone having sex with someone who isn’t their husband or wife and think that’s okay?. I mean that would be alittle hypocrtical??

Brandy on

I hope she doesn’t read this. I would be in tears reading that people would judge me so bad without even seeing me or knowing me in real life.

laughing on

The majority of us on this blog,have all been perfectly behaved human beings,we have always made all the right choices.We never had sex before marriage,we are all still married to our first and only husband,divorce is unthinkable to us,we have all been perfect mothers.I only say nice things about folks so I wish Kourtney all the best.She seems like a nice girl,trying to find herslef.I’m sure she’ll be a wonderful mother and I’m sure the childs father will handle the situation well.

Moore on

Lisa,
first – the father wasn’t announced until today so when people said that, they more than likely didn’t already know.
Second – it was not mentioned how far along she was when the news first broke.
The article here has been updated a few times.

Q on

Dawn everything is not black & white. An unplanned pregnancy & a unwanted on IS NOT THE SAME. If it was unwanted she would’ve aborted & been done with it or give the baby up. Yes there are unplanned pregnancies. You can practice safe sex & still get pregnant. Just because your self righteous doesn’t change the facts. Women can abstain & still have a unplanned or unwanted pregnancies.

I agree w/ comparing her w/ Nicole Ritchie makes no sense. Nicole had much, much more serious issues than Kourtney has by far. Hopefully this Scott guy will be there for her & the baby.

Lisa on

you people all make me sick! Opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one. Who r u to judge? Only God Judges you. You don’t even know this girl or the father and all of u can make up your sceneroes in your mind. So, what, she’s a grown adult. who said it was a mistake? UGGGGGGGGG

marimel on

divorce rates in the US were the lowest they’ve been since 1970. And estimates show that the overall rate is really closer between 40 and 50%, that’s a pretty sizable gap. Also, reports earlier this year indicate that the 2009 rate will be even lower because of the economy and the inability to afford a divorce right now… fingers crossed that that doesn’t mean they will skyrocket once the economy levels out. Here’s an article (one of many I found) discussing this. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1604511/divorce_rates_plunge_amidst_recession.html

Anyway, am I the only one, or are others also sick of the personal attacks between posters on this site? It’s become really intense in probably the last 6 months. Marriage (and possibly divorce) is right for some, not for others. Parenthood is right for some, not for others. Premarital sex is right for some, not for others. At the end of the day, who the heck cares what anyone else is doing with their life, as long as it isn’t negatively affecting yours? Different strokes for different folks. But I also think it’s kind of unnecessary to point out to Sally, Nancy, and Susie in every single story how judgmental they’re being. It’s just some people’s nature, calling them out on it isn’t going to change that.

and Lisa….. “opinions are like butt holes. Everyone has one.” HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA, thanks for the laugh!!!!!

marimel on

oops, meant to say lowest in 2008 since 1970. sorry for any confusion*

Doreen on

She probably wanted the chance to get pregnant to keep Scott around. Well, now she has that chance!! I don’t think the relationship will last at all considering his cheating ways and she knows it. Well, one things’ for sure, this party girl needs to settle down for the sake of this baby!

Moore on

“Women can abstain & still have a unplanned or unwanted pregnancies.”
No, I don’t think that’s possible. Either you abstain and have no sex (by definition) or you don’t abstain and have sex. If you’re pregnant (planned or unplanned, wanted or unwanted) I’m pretty sure you didn’t abstain.

dawn on

Q :::Women can abstain & still have a unplanned or unwanted pregnancies.

LMAO explain that one??!!!

All I can say is I am happy she is pg and hope all turns out well for her…

I am just stating if you dont want kids then dont have sex or use protection and yes protection is not a 100 % but still know in the back of your head its possiable…. So deal with what comes your way!!! Or if your not a mature adult then dont have sex!!!

Respect your body and it goes along way, pass it out like a greyhound bus and you will get yours…

GOOD DAY!

gaia's mom on

How are an unplanned pregnancy and unwanted pregnancy the same? That semantically doesn’t even make sense. Are planned and wanted the same thing?

Erica on

Lisa: “So, what, she’s a grown adult. who said it was a mistake?”

Kourtney Kardashian said it was mistake! lol. She admitted that she often forgot to take her pills and her pregnancy was a result of that.

gaia’s mom: I see your point, but for me, I think of it like this–a woman takes birth control because she does not WANT a baby (aka an “unwanted” pregnancy”) at that moment. If a woman wanted a baby, or a “wanted” pregnancy if you will, she would not be on birth control to prevent conception. However, I can completely understand the idea of a woman accidentally becoming pregnant and wanting her pregnancy because it’s already a done deal. But in many cases unwanted and unplanned do mean the same thing, otherwise there would be no abortions and no mothers who permanently lose custody of their kids.

I have no substantial comment on the marriage issue, but as someone who watched Scott on their show he gave off serious douchebag vibes. Kourtney’s own mother immediately did not like the guy, and she seems like a very liberal minded, easy going lady. I see Kourtney being a good mom and maybe this kid will mature Scott, but if I had been Kourtney I would’ve done whatever it took NOT to have a baby by that guy!

Elzbieta on

She’s 30??? That woman in the above video is 30?? Well age is nothing but a number. 30 or not its apparent that she has some serious growing up to do in four months. If at 30 she can’t remember to take her birth control pills.

Emaline on

So she’s been pregnant since around March? Wow I’m impressed how she’s kept it under wraps! Kourtney’s my fave Kardashian :)

FC on

This news was a surprise to me. But I’m happy for her, and wish her the best with the pregnancy and afterwards. :)

Crystal on

Amanda-if you haven’t seen the show then you have no right to comment. If you watched the show you would see the awful way Scott has treated Kourtney in the past and know that she could do MUCH BETTER!! It makes me so mad with people commenting and then putting in the misnomer: I’ve never seen the show but…. UGH!

Katia on

Just because someone thinks its right to get married before you have a baby, does not mean its right for someone else. There is no general rule, if you believe its a general rule, than that seems a little judgemental. I have never been married, but been with the same guy for seven years and we have a son together, marriage is a state of mind and something between you and God, I don’t need a piece of paper to tell me I’m married, If I feel blessed then I’m pretty sure that God has blessed me, but again its a personal issue, that no one has a say in. That is the beautiful thing about it.

CelebBabyLover on

JC- What’s she supposed to do? NOT announce the pregnancy?

CelebBabyLover on

Elzbieta- Actually, from what I’ve read, it’s quite common for women to forget to take their birth control pills. I don’t think it’s fair to judge Kourtney’s maturity on that. People forget things all the time, even important things, and that doesn’t mean they’re immature!

Moore and dawn- I think what that commentor meant is that, even if a woman abstains, she could still, for example, be raped and end up pregnant that way.

CelebBabyLover on

marimel- I completely agree with you about reality shows! They ARE often very scripted, and not actually that close to reality. Therefore, it is very possible that the Karadshians don’t act the way they do on the show in real life.

Mia on

Just to add-when I said “nobody is going to take that route” (of abstinence), I meant “in general”. Yes, there are people that do that + that’s great for them, but the mass majority don’t, and a lot of people don’t really even take birth control seriously + then they are shocked when they are pregnant.

ERICKA on

How can u be shocked when you missed our pills? I cannot believe he’s the father, he treats her like cr*p. I hope he grows up and acts like an adult.

Is it just me or does he seem to be on drugs on the last few shows? When they broke up and she threw all his stuff on the floor and she went to Rod Stewerts sons house to make up with him He’s lost so much weight and his pupils were dialated. If he his he needs to streight up before this baby comes…I hope he does atleast.

eternalcanadian on

People magazine quoted Kourtney as saying:

“As for having an unplanned pregnancy she says, “This sounds probably so dumb but there’s so many times I’ll forget to take my pill and just don’t think it’s that big of a deal,” Kardashian admits. “I’ve done that several times and never really thought about it. It sounds so stupid.”

Yes, it does sound stupid for a 30 year old woman. She was having regular sex and kept “forgetting” to take the pill? Way to role-model Kourtney.

Cali on

I know her and Scott had problems, but for some reason I really liked them together. I cant believe she’s pregnant, and this may sound strange, but I’m even more shocked at her age! She’s thirty! I thought she was maybe 24 or 25 or something. That’s crazy.

Dawn on

@Sage–There are two Dawns here. I am Dawn, not dawn. Sorry for the confusion!

I made the first comment you mentioned; another “dawn” made the second one. Sorry for the confusion.

Nina on

You know there will be a spin-off show on her being pregnant and a parent, the network is probably working on the concept right now. Seacrest is running all the way to the bank.

CWill on

I’m not going to say much other than I know what it’s like to be in her situation i.e getting prego by a guy you love but can’t trust worth a s***!! No wonder her mother apparently didn’t want anyone to know who the father is but of course when your in the public eye as much as that family is, everyone would’ve found out sooner or later regardless of if she said anything or not… good luck & congrats

MyHormonesMadeMeDoIt on

At least she seems to have a loving and supportive family…just in case the father shows his true colors. I hope Kim is next!

Catca on

Wow! I really don’t want to pile on with the negative comments but this story is a little concerning. First, congrats to Kourtney and Scott. Whether you stay together or not, as long as you provide a loving and stable environmnent for the baby, the baby will have everything it needs. My concern is Kourtney states she forgot to take the pill, had unprotected sex, had to have known she had unprotected sex while forgetting to take the pill as their would have been an extra pill in her box, didn’t know she was preggers until about 3 mos along so presumably she did not take prenatal pills during the most crucial time and worse, from the sounds of it, continued to take birth control pills during that time which is dangerous for the baby. Hopefully the baby will have no adverse affects but people, especially women, look up to celebrities and this is not exactly an example of good decision making or responsibility.

Stephanie on

I lost my virginity in high school. I looking back I probably would have waited a year or 2 but I was with him for a year by then and … I don’t really want to say it was peer pressure from friends because they weren’t all “why aren’t you”, but enough of them were that I thought it wasn’t a big deal so I did. It really wasn’t a big deal. (and mind you we may have broken up six months later, we got back together my senior year and were together for 2 and a half years after.) I’m almost 22 and have slept with two people. Really, I don’t think that’s bad considering what pop culture gives as the norm.

I don’t really get the whole “virginity is a gift thing” either. Would you buy a car without testing it out first? Would you buy an expensive dress without trying it on? No. So why in the world would you commit to having sex with one person for the rest of your like when it could be baaaad sex. Believe me… it can stay bad. If it’s bad after 3 years, it probably won’t get any better!
