Kim Kardashian, who once made a lot of money off her weight loss, has been seemingly gaining some weight in recent weeks. Media TakeOut reports that she’s pregnant – and the father is none other than Kanye West.

Though with a reputation that puts it on par with the National Enquirer, MTO does get some credit for breaking some stories before any other media outlet – so, word in the blogosphere has it, this could be one of them.

According to the e-zine, who spoke to someone close to Kim, she and the rapper have been very close for many years now, they just never went public with their affair.

After a few rendezvous in recent months, Kim realized she really liked Kanye enough to get into a serious relationship with him. To cap it all off, she also became pregnant.

The spy says Kim is really desperate and doesn’t know what to do about the pregnancy, constantly calling Kanye to ask him for advice. However, she’s determined to milk this for all it’s worth.

“Kim has been seeing Kanye [West] off and on for years now. But this summer, they [hooked up] five or six times. Kanye told her that he didn’t want anything serious, but Kim really likes him,” the insider dishes for MTO.

“Kim is being very secretive about everything. She calls [Kanye] almost non-stop and wants to know what she should do,” the spy adds.

MTO vouches that this is more than just speculation by saying the insider heard one such conversation with “her own ears.” The spy refuses to reveal her name because she’s too close to Kim and doesn’t want to fall out of favor with her.

As for the announcement of the pregnancy, the spy believes Kardashian will make money off it too. “Knowing Kim, she’ll coincide it with her show, in one episode her and Kanye go out on a date,” she says.

Apparently, Gabriel Aubry is out of the picture – assuming the above is true.
