And now for today's news from the world of the Kardashians ... Kim's older sister Kourtney has announced that she is pregnant. She told 'Us Weekly' that she took a pregnancy test about five weeks ago and is now nine weeks pregnant. "You're supposed to wait 12 weeks to tell people," said Kourtney, "but I feel confident."

This will be Kourtney's second baby with her partner Scott Disick, and the pregnancy will no doubt be an integral part of the 2012 instalments of the Kardashian reality TV empire.

The couple's first child, Mason is almost two, and Scott told 'Us Weekly' that while this pregnancy wasn't planned, "It wasn't like we weren't trying. We kind of just said, 'If it's meant to be, it'll be.'"
