To actually have a bit of respect for Kylie keeping her pregnancy private

Seems a lovely things to me, to keep something so special private when the whole world wants in, and she's always branded as wanting the limelight like the rest of the K family.

But clearly not true!

Congratulations Kylie, I think you'll be a fab Mum Thanks

My Mum's dog is called Kylie the yapping little shit

TobleroneBoo · 05/02/2018 13:37

@sparklingbrook Same mum as the kardashians, different dad ( Bruce / Caitlyn Jenner)

Thistlebelle · 05/02/2018 13:37

Sandy I can see that you are totally respecting her wish for privacy by starting a thread about it here. Confused

I would never have become aware of it without this thread....

LloydColeandtheCoconuts · 05/02/2018 13:37

Another one who got excited that it was Minogue! Grin

LemonysSnicket · 05/02/2018 13:37

She’s Kylie Jenner and is half sister to the Kardashians sharing the same mum so technically of the Kardashian Klan

JJPP123 · 05/02/2018 13:37

For most people Yes, keeping it private is kind of nice except with the Mardashians I expect there was an ulterior motive.

TeachesOfPeaches · 05/02/2018 13:37

Was really pleased for Kylie Minogue for a second there.

Fireinthegrate · 05/02/2018 13:38

She isn't a Kardashian.
Her surname is Jenner and she is half sister to the 3 Kardashian sisters and 1 Kardashian brother.
She has a full sister called Kendall Jenner.

I think it's nice that she kept the oregnancy private. Their whole lives are on TV so this was refreshing, although I could be cynical and say it was a good move becuase it's all young people have,been talking about - is she or isn't she ?

Anyway congratulations Kylie Jenner on the birth of your baby girl.

LeekSoup · 05/02/2018 13:38

I thought op meant Kylie Minogue (disappointed)

captaincolic · 05/02/2018 13:38

I thought she was keeping it quiet because none of the magazines / websites were interested in paying millions for an exclusive.

Also that the Kardashians are trying to rein in their publicity for the pregnancy guff to improve dwindling ratings for their reality show etc.

They are a sharp clan and they will have considered all angles. Privacy / special time with baby being irrelevant to their plans.

Sparklingbrook · 05/02/2018 13:38

I have just had a look at the Kardashian family tree Toblerone. Complicated is an understatement. No idea about any of them. I think I am ok with that, best not to start now. Grin

sonjadog · 05/02/2018 13:40

Does she post here? Is that why the OP is addressing her directly?

Hillingdon · 05/02/2018 13:40

I thought Kylie Minogue too. I was at Westfields shepherds Bush once and it was heaving with young girls. The Kardashians were there promoting something or other. I had never heard of them but there was great excitement.

These young people are easily pleased

Feelitstill · 05/02/2018 13:41

I’ve never been so disappointed in a thread. I thought you meant the wonderful Kylie M - THE kylie.
I’ve never heard of another one.

PortiaCastis · 05/02/2018 13:41

There's a whole other thread on here about the baby's name and some of the suggestions are very funny.

megletthesecond · 05/02/2018 13:42

Apparently it was only kept quiet because no magazines would pay the huge amount Kris was asking for photos and an interview.

Paddington68 · 05/02/2018 13:43

Kylie who?

elmo1980 · 05/02/2018 13:43

I thought it was being kept quiet because she was actually the surrogate for Kim's next baby.

OnASummersDay · 05/02/2018 13:43

She knew that keeping it quiet would get her more publicity, the entire tween population have been addicted to is she/isn't she for months. She knew exactly what she was doing and it wasn't for the good of her baby!

HouseworkIsASin10 · 05/02/2018 13:46

YANBU. She comes across as more sensitive and 'normal' than her siblings. Bet you it wound Kris up, not being able to sell every little detail to the media.

SandyBabyToes · 05/02/2018 13:49

I can see that you are totally respecting her wish for privacy by starting a thread about it here. 

^I doubt she will be greatly impacted by a very English mothering forum.

Furthermore, it's all out in the open now. It's being discussed worldwide

Kylie can not do right for doing wrong, so it seems. Yes what you say could've been true but what if she really did^ want to keep it private because she wanted a no fuss/stress free pregnancy? Then what?

Complete and utter publicity stunt to keep it a secret.

There were already 2 pregnancies going on, so it was a very calculated decision for Kylie to keep it quiet (generate a "different" type of publicity? The 'is she / isn't she' bullshit)

pumpersnatch · 05/02/2018 13:50

Hmmm kept quiet about it, kept the Internet talking and wondering about it for months with several carefully staged, candid pap pics and then did a HUGE reveal today accompanied by an 11 minute video !!!

That wasn't keeping quiet and private that was pure and simple PR business Hmm

Pur-lease..............

SandyBabyToes · 05/02/2018 13:50

Not funny, stopped being funny when someone tried saying the baby would be called 'Kunt'

No, because I've just read a rumour she is calling the baby Butterfly, FFS.
