Congratulations are in order for Kim Kardashian-West and Kanye West, who have announced the birth of their son.

A name is yet to be revealed, meaning those hedging bets on other compass signs apart from North - the name of their two-year old daughter - will have to wait and see.

The reality TV personality shared a picture of her and West holding hands on her website, announcing they welcomed their baby boy on Saturday morning and added sother and son are doing well.

She also posted the picture on Twitter, saying: “He’s Here!”

Last night she teased fans who are eagerly awaiting the younger brother of North by sharing a selfie of herself displaying her pregnant stomach alongside the caption: “Ready whenever you are”.

Paddy Power currently have odds at 5/2 of Easton West, South West at 6/1 and Robert, which is the name of Kardashian’s brother and late father, at 7/1.

The chance of Kanye being the first name is listed at 8/1, Kimye and Nat are at at 100/1.
