​Khloe Kardashian has clapped back at reports that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Tristan Thompson.

The reality TV star, 33, who is reportedly four months pregnant, sent fans into a frenzy when she posted a picture of herself in a tight leather outfit which fans claimed showed off her alleged baby bump.

But Kardashian appeared to shut down the rumours by posting more pictures from the new Good American fashion campaign, telling fans that the ‘bump’ was created by the design of her dress.

Commenting on her own Instagram post she wrote: “This is a peplum shirt. It flares out at the bottom. It's just the way the shirt is designed.

“In some of the next pictures coming up from the SAME shoot, I'm in a crop top. Showing a lot of skin.... (sic).”

It was reported last month that Kardashian is pregnant, with a source telling People that she and Thompson are “over the moon”.

The source said: “This isn’t something they were in a rush to announce to the whole world, and it’s only been in just the past week or so that they’ve felt comfortable telling most of their inner circle.

“This is such a wonderful moment for her: not only is she going to be a mother, she is going to be raising a child with a man she truly loves. Everyone is over the moon for them both.”

According to reports her half-sister Kylie Jenner, 20, is also pregnant with her first child with rapper boyfriend Travis Scott. The source said the siblings are looking at the alleged pregnancies as a “unifying experience”.

The pair have yet to confirm or deny the reports which came days before Kim Kardashian announced the news that she is expecting her third child with Kanye West via a surrogate.
