Khloe Kardashian Odom is going to be an aunt for the third time. Her sister, Kim, is expecting her first child with boyfriend, singer Kanye West. The dad-to-be announced the pregnancy on stage last night during a performance.

Our immediate thoughts went to Khloe, married to Lamar Odom three years, and struggling to conceive. However Khloe and Lamar feel about their own fertility challenges, they had only loving words to share on Twitter:

Keeping secrets is hard with so many family members! Especially when you are so freaking excited!!!!! LOVE is everything!!!!

And later, Khloe ReTweeted a sentiment from her husband that hinted at their own wish for a child:

"@reallamarodom: I'm excited for Kanye and my sister! There's nothing like bringing life into this world! Let's keep Gods blessings coming!"

Khloe has always been a devoted aunt to her oldest sister Kourtney’s son Mason and baby daughter, Penelope. We have no doubts that she’ll spoil her new little niece or nephew in the same way.

We sincerely hope that Kourtney and Kim will have the opportunity to return the favor soon. And we send our hearty congratulations to Kim and Kanye.
