Kourtney Kardashian, the radiant 44-year-old reality star, graced the latest cover of Vanity Fair Italia, showcasing her blossoming baby bump. In an exclusive interview, she unveiled the astonishing revelation that she had conceived naturally, ending a two-year battle with IVF setbacks. As she nears the due date of her fourth child, she courageously recounted the harrowing ordeal of a life-saving fetal surgery her unborn son underwent last month.
In the mesmerizing black and white cover shot, Kourtney, seven months pregnant, cradled her baby bump, exuding pure elegance in a stylish black bra. A sheer black veil draped over her, complementing her captivating smoky eye makeup.
During her candid conversation with the publication, Kourtney confided that she was unprepared for the fear that gripped her when she had to undergo a life-altering surgery, a stark contrast to her three ‘really easy’ previous pregnancies.
A sneak peek of the interview teased on Instagram read: ‘After two years of trying, she became pregnant naturally at 44 years old. And to those who criticize pregnancy at her age, Kourtney Kardashian Barker replies, “Those comments don’t affect me. I just say: how could you question God’s plan? Because that’s how I see this pregnancy, which came when both Travis and I weren’t even thinking about it anymore and a year after we stopped IVF.”‘
The star also reflected on her baby’s health scare last month, saying: ‘It was terrifying. I feel that sooner or later I will go into detail because I hope that it could help others, but I don’t feel ready yet because it was really frightening.’
In a touching post shared online during the ordeal, Kourtney expressed her eternal gratitude to her dedicated medical team for safeguarding her baby’s life. She also thanked her loving husband, Travis Barker, who rushed to her side from a tour to provide unwavering support. Kourtney’s mother, Kris Jenner, received heartfelt appreciation for being there, holding her hand through the trying times.
The interview further delves into the restrictions Kourtney has had to endure during her latest pregnancy, including refraining from workouts, Pilates, caffeine, plane trips, and even sex. She admitted that all this caution made her somewhat apprehensive, as she had never been this cautious in the past.
Kourtney’s exciting pregnancy news with husband Travis Barker was revealed in a unique way, during a Blink-182 concert where she surprised the audience by holding up a sign that read: ‘TRAVIS I’M PREGNANT,’ playfully mirroring a scene from the band’s music video for “All The Small Things.”
This revelation marked the end of Kourtney’s grueling IVF journey, which had taken a toll on her health, resulting in depression. In the past, Kourtney decided to focus on her wedding and married Travis, putting her quest for a baby on hold.
Reflecting on her journey, Kourtney shared, ‘We would love a baby more than anything, but I just really believe in what God has in store for us.’ She also disclosed that she had frozen seven eggs years ago, just before marrying Travis, as a precautionary step. However, most of them did not survive the thaw process, leading to her IVF struggles, which had physical and mental implications.
For Kourtney Kardashian, happiness and being a great parent to her children remain the top priorities. She’s embracing life’s unpredictable twists, letting fate unfold its mysterious plan. Stay tuned for more revelations from this remarkable journey of love and life!
