NEW YORK — Kim Kardashian is expecting a baby boy, a spokeswoman for the reality TV star said Monday.

Ina Treciokas confirmed a post that Kardashian made on Instagram and Twitter in a message to her rapper-husband Kanye West.

A picture of West reading a book to their 2-year-old daughter, North West, is captioned: "You're such a good daddy to North & you will be the best daddy to our new son too!"

Kardashian revealed the news of her pregnancy in a clip that appeared after an episode of the E! reality show "Keeping up With the Kardashians."

The show documented the 34-year-old's fertility struggles, and she confided that an attempt to conceive through in vitro fertilization failed.
