Of Course There Are Kris Jenner Conspiracy Theories About Kylie Jenner’s Baby Announcement

Congratulations are in order for Kylie Jenner and her boyfriend Travis Scott{ =nofollow}, who have welcomed their second child. In typical style, Kylie - who managed to keep most of her first pregnancy private - announced the news late, only posting a photo of her new baby boy's hand on Instagram yesterday, revealing the baby was born on 2/2/2022. Fans also think they might have worked out the name, as Kris commented 'angel pie' on the post.

But as with most Kardashian news, there have been whispers of conspiracy theories. Mostly about the timing of the birth. Not only does the date hold significance as the baby is their second child, but the baby's birthday is also a day after four-year-old Stormi, who was welcomed on February 1. So some have wondered if Kris Jenner - the world's most famous momager - had anything behind the meaningful date. Or even if Kylie deliberately chose to be induced, or have a C-section, for the 2nd.

(Look, we know Kris Jenner works hard - but it really could just be a wonderful coincidence.)

Many have also been wondering if the announcement has deliberately come as a distraction when Kim and Kanye are in the news as they battle on social media following their divorce. As well as making headlines with his new girlfriend, Julia Fox, who he met on New Year's Eve, Kanye publicly attacked Kim for letting their daughter North, 8, upload TikToks (under Kim's supervision). Addressing Kanye publicly on Instagram, Kim then responded, saying 'Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create'.

'I don't always believe Kris Jenner is behind some of the public storylines we see from her family but Kylie choosing to announce a baby she had 4 days ago now after Kanye spent the whole day spewing chaos definitely doesn't feel like a coincidence,' one person tweeted. Another added, alongside a GIF of Kris furiously typing, 'Kris Jenner planning how Kylie's new baby is going to simultaneously clear Travis Scott's image and somehow make Kanye shut up.'

Well, regardless of whether Kris had anything to do it, we're still all somehow keeping up with the Kardashians.
