Following the news, fans are saying the same thing: the drama must be fodder for the upcoming second season of The Kardashians on Hulu.
Popular reality TV Twitter account Queens of Bravo tweeted two screengrabs to articles about Kim and Pete and Khloe and Tristan.
They added: “They must be filming the season finale today.”
On Reddit, meanwhile, Kardashian fans made similar comments.
“Whaaaattt today has been crazy. Junior the third is here and Kete is over? Damn,” one Reddit user wrote.
Others wondered: “Now is the baby supposed to distract us from the Kete breakup or is the Kete breakup supposed to distract us from the baby!!”
A Kardashian fan speculated: “The breakup is distracting us from the baby for sure. Dropping the news on a Friday night is one thing but after a break up is another. Kim has had this in her back pocket for a week or two and has gotten Pete to agree to wait to announce until the baby comes. Garuntreeed.”
A second chimed in: “I think the baby is distracting us from the kete breakup since kete was supposed to be in season two of the Kardashians.”

Someone else quipped: “My head is doing Kartwheels trying to Keep Up RN!”
There was also some speculation about when these major milestones actually originated, with some speculating that the famous family has been sitting on one or both of these stories for some time.
CREATING CHAOS?
Prior to Friday’s reports that Kim and Pete had called it quits after nine months together, rumors had been swirling.
In fact, for several weeks fans have been speculating that the Hulu star is back with her estranged husband, Kanye West.
“I’m curious when the baby was actually born. no way it was born today. They obviously put this out today for a reason,” a Reddit user wrote.
Fans think Kim has been dropping clues about her relationship status for weeks.
Last week, Kim posted a series of photos of herself in tiny sheer bikini bottoms and a matching white top that reads, “The Incredibles.”
Many fans noted that Kanye had, in the past, given an interview sitting next to Kim, referencing the animated film.
“It starts off with the interviews, the superheroes are giving interviews. The wife got a big butt, and I just see our lives becoming more and more and more like ‘The Incredibles’ until we can finally fly,” he said with a laugh.
“He would,” responded Kim with an uncomfortable laugh.
‘KIMYE COMEBACK’
Fans were quick to respond to Kim’s photos, with one writing: “Is this hinting at a Kimye comeback?”
Another wrote: “The Incredibles?! I remember when Kanye… nevermind! You look great.”
“How is Pete?” one reacted, referring to Kim’s current boyfriend comedian Pete.
That’s not the first clue Kim has given that she’s back with her ex either.
Kim previously posted a photo of a piece of art by James Turrell – an artist with whom her ex has collaborated in the past.
The piece featured several blue lights along with a vertical orb in the center.
The famous rapper also recently “liked” one of Kim’s Instagram posts, despite stepping away from social media.
Kim also got fans talking after she posted a photo of herself in bed watching The Trueman Show, one of Kanye’s favorite films.
In addition to her more glaring hints, the makeup and skincare mogul has been leaving a trail of subtle clues.
Fans have noticed that Kim’s daughter North has been sporting Yeezy sneakers again, as well as other accessories from her father’s fashion line.
The mom of four, too, has been wearing pieces from the brand – something she hasn’t done since their split.
She has also been promoting the brand again – something that signaled to fans that things were back on track for the former couple.
Hours after E! News reported that Kim and Pete were through, news broke that Khloe and Tristan has reportedly welcomed their second child.
IT’S A BOY
Page Six reported on Friday night that the exes had secretly welcomed their son via surrogate.
The child’s name is currently unknown, but he’ll be a little brother to the former couple’s four-year-old daughter True.
In July, a statement on Khloe’s behalf said she is “incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing.”
Before the news broke, there were already various hints that the exes had secretly welcomed their second child.
A popular Kardashian TikToker recently addressed fan speculation that Khloe’s son had already been born.
In a video on the platform, the influencer explained: “Khloe Kardashian’s son is due any day now and her Instagram is either making me feel that it’s coming very soon or the surrogate has already given birth.”
The video then cut to a still of Khloe’s most recent Instagram post captioned: “Sing Baby”.
The Hulu star’s short video depicted a beachside view as the sun set beneath the horizon.
The TikTok influencer continued by sharing his own theory of the post’s significance.
He stated: “The caption says ‘Sing Baby’….don’t even get me started thinking the baby’s name is Sing.”
Khloe also recently took to Instagram to post a photo of several products from her sister Kylie Jenner‘s brand, Kylie Baby.
The Good American cofounder tagged both Kylie and the company in the post and included a link for fans to buy the items.
According to representatives, the baby was conceived just before Khloe learned that Tristan had cheated on her with his mistress Maralee Nichols, with whom he fathered a child back in December 2021.
Khloe and Tristan were on-again, off-again for five years before the NBA star confessed to cheating on Khloe with the fitness model.
He had previously cheated on her as well, though this was the first that resulted in a child.
