Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have made a deal with a surrogate mother to have their third child, according to reports from People and TMZ.

TMZ claims that a deal of Dhs415,050 has been made, and it’s thought that Kim, 36, and 40-year-old Kanye used an agency to find their surrogate. A source has also confirmed this to People.

Kim and Kanye made the decision they wanted to have a third child, but after Kim suffered placenta accrete during her pregnancy with Saint, there were told to explore other avenues. This condition means that another pregnancy for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star could be life-threatening.

Kim spoke about her desire to become a mum for third time on her reality show back in March.

She said: “I’m going to try to have one more baby. I want my kids to have siblings.”

She added that, “After Paris I feel the need to bring another soul into this world.”

Originally it was reported that Kim would be undergoing surgery in order to have her and Kanye’s third child, but she also said at the time that surrogacy was an option.

“I know he [Kanye] wants more kids though so we are going to explore our other options.

“I’ve come to the conclusion in my mind that I can’t carry another one. So now I want to explore surrogacy,” Kim added to her mother, Kris Jenner, on the show.

When she was quizzed by sister Kourtney Kardashian on whether she really wanted to go down the surrogacy route, Kim said, “I think that’s what we are going to try. It’s so frustrating.”
