WATCH: Kim Kardashian Reveals Why She Didn’t Invite Surrogate to Baby Shower

When guests gathered for Kim Kardashian -West’s cherry-blossom-filled baby shower over the weekend, there was someone missing: the surrogate carrying Kim’s third child with husband Kanye West did not get an invite.

In a sit down on ‘The Real’ TV show, the reality star opened up about why she didn’t invite her surrogate to her lavish baby shower on Saturday.

”I did not. I did introduce her to my family. I introduced her to my family earlier that day. And, you know, I just thought, I don’t know, it was like a weird decision to have to make.”

Kim already shares two children with West — daughter North, 4, and Saint, 2 — whom she felt weren’t ready to understand the surrogate’s role.

“But I hadn’t really gone that far in explaining it to my kids yet. So I have to figure that out first before they really see and then if we’re celebrating, you know, her, I just want to celebrate the baby.

I think I have to figure out how I’m going to explain it to them.”

The beauty mogul, however, had nothing but praiseworthy things to say about the surrogate, who she revealed didn’t know that she was carrying the celebrity offspring at first.

”I love her. I have the best relationship with my surrogate. She’s so nice. She is the perfect person to do this for my family. She’s great. She’s been amazing.”

Kim said surrogacy can be done anonymously, but the star insisted on meeting to make sure the surrogate was comfortable with the situation.

When they did meet, Kim says the surrogate was “really excited” and previously aware of her struggles to conceive.

Kim experienced preeclampsia while pregnant with North, and placenta accreta throughout both pregnancies.

Despite once describing pregnancy as “the worst experience of my life,” Kim told Entertainment Tonight that the surrogacy was “so much harder” than conceiving naturally.

“Anyone that says or thinks (surrogacy) is just the easy way out is just completely wrong.

Obviously you pick someone that you completely trust and that you have a good bond and relationship with, but it is still … knowing that I was able to carry my first two babies and not, you know, my baby now, it’s hard for me. So, it’s definitely a harder experience than I anticipated just in the control area.”

Kim, 36, and Kanye, 40, have been married for three years now and their relationship grows strong daily.
