It was first reported in late September that Khloé was pregnant, but she and other members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan notoriously refrained from confirming or commenting on the news. The mom-to-be’s announcement comes almost two months after the rumors were first reported.

Kardashian, 33, acknowledged that she, Thompson, and their inner circle kept the baby news on the down-low so they could “enjoy this between our family and close friends as long as we could privately” and “enjoy our first precious moments just us.” She continued with a note to her fans, “Thank you all for understanding.”

This marks Khloé’s first child and Thompson’s second. The 26-year-old NBA player already has a one-year-old son, Prince, from a previous relationship. The couple is reportedly expecting a baby boy, but they have not yet officially announced the baby’s sex.

An hour after posting the photo on Instagram, Kardashian took to Twitter to reflect on her announcement and thank her fans for their responses to the news. “I was so nervous to post our announcement but WOWWW I am overwhelmed with the response by you guys!!!” she wrote.

I was so nervous to post our announcement but WOWWW I am overwhelmed with the response by you guys!!! Thank you! Thank you! I love you guys!!
