As fans of the Kardashian / Jenner family continue to speculate over Kylie's reported pregnancy, word has landed that Kylie's older sister, Khloé, is also expecting.

Khloé, who is in a relationship with Tristan Thompson, is reportedly thrilled by the news, with sources confirming as much to media outlets.

"Khloe is so happy, you have no idea," one source told E! News.

Another source speaking to PEOPLE confirmed the same, saying: "Yes, Khloe and Tristan are expecting and they are absolutely thrilled."

"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," the source added.

With the press and public scrutinising Kylie's every move since word landed that the reality star is due her first child, insiders have revealed that her 33-year-old sister has attempted to play down the rumours.

“Things were complicated a bit by Kylie’s announcement as they don’t want to be seen as intruding on that moment for her but it is now reaching a point where Khloe doesn’t want to be openly lying to people, and just staying quiet isn’t going to work anymore," the source added.

Revealing that Khloé's inner circle are busy celebrating the news, the family source continued: "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."

Interestingly, Keeping up with the Kardashians producer, Jeffrey Jenkins, has reached out to the star on Instagram, writing: "Congrats my beautiful Khloe! You will be a great mom! God bless you all three!"

However, like Kylie, Khloé has yet to confirm the reports personally, so Twitter is understandably feeling a little impatient…

Cancel your plans – this Friday's Late Late Show is too good to miss.

In an Irish television exclusive, Ryan Tubridy will sit the down with the former US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton.

In what promises to be a “very engaging interview,” viewers will gain an interesting insight into the mind of the presidential candidate.

The wide-ranging interview touches on many topics including Hillary's love of Ireland, her presidential campaign, and of course, how it felt to lose the US presidency to businessman and reality TV star, Donald Trump.

“I would have been really unhappy if I had lost to a normal Republican. But to lose to someone who I believed profoundly was not ready for the job, was temperamentally unqualified for the job, was such a burden. I just thought 'I’ve just let everybody down, I’ve let my country down, I’ve let the world down. How did this happen?'”

Hillary will also discuss the potential dangers the Trump presidency presents to the world as well as the double standards faced by women in politics.

This unmissable interview airs on The Late Late Show, this Friday, September 29,  at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.

Absolutely no one likes to hear people say negative things about their body, and those comments can hurt even more when they come from someone you care about.

Afterall, our friends are supposed to lift us up when we're feeling down – not the other way around.

But it looks like this guy never got the memo.

After receiving an invite to a party from one of her male friends, Imogen Ker could never have imagined the lasting effect that night would have.

The 24-year-old model was left absolutely gobsmacked when her so-called friend introduced her to another man.

"He was telling this stranger how wonderful and amazing I was, and then out of the blue said, 'Imogen would be perfect if it wasn't for her body,'" she told Shape.

Em, excuse me?

As you can imagine, Imogen was left feeling embarassed and vulnerable.

"I felt personally attacked in front of a stranger by someone who was supposed to be my friend,” she recalled.

And while she initially tried to brush it off, the hurtful words stuck with Imogen until she finally decided to make her feelings known.

"It was all I could think about, so I finally decided to text him and get what I was feeling off my chest."

While Imogen did manage to get the apology she deserved, he blamed his behaviour on being drunk (which, to be honest, doesn't explain why he was such a d*ck).

Having struggled with body-image for most of her life, Imogen hopes her story will inpire other young women to stand up for themselves when faced with similar situations:

 "I know that the first reaction for some is to shove it down because of shame. That was my first instinct—to let it go—but I couldn't. That's why we must stand up for ourselves…because we can't rely on the hope that someone else might do it for us."

Preach!

So, while we're generally of the opinion that any pre-Halloween mention of the 'C' word deserves to be met with copious amounts of eye rolling and a schooling in the modern Christian calendar – we reckon we may have just found an exception to the rule.

As we all know, no winter wardrobe is complete without a festive knit, so it's worth investing early to make sure your Christmas jumper game is a cut above the rest.

But fear not ladies, because this year's must-have style has just landed.

Introducing the 'GINgle Bells' jumper.

Just imagine the look on your friends faces when you rock up to 12 pubs in this.

Not to mention the slightly different (yet just as amusing) look on your mam's face when take your place at the Christmas dinner table.

It's win-win, really.

The unisex jumper costs £29.00 (approx. €33.00), and is available to order on Notonthehighstreet.com.

But you better be quick, we've got a feeling they'll be snapped up in no time.

In September 1987, a community in Co Kildare went into mourning following the tragic death of two children and their babysitter in Kilcock.

Kerrie Ann Byrne was just three-years-old when she and her eight-year-old sister, Mary Ellen, died in a house fire on Church Lane in the small Kildare town.

The children were in the care of their 20-year-old babysitter, Barbara Doyle, when the fire broke out.

Despite initially believing that the death of the three individuals was the result of an accidental blaze, authorities revealed last week that they are now treating it as a murder case.

Following a fresh appeal into the case, Gardai have today confirmed that they have made an arrest relating to the case.

"Gardaí investigating the murders of Barbara Doyle, aged 20 years, Mary Ellen Byrne aged 8 years and Kerrie Byrne aged 3 years at a house fire in Kilcock, Co. Kildare that occured on 20th September, 1987 at Church Lane, Kilcock, Co. Kildare have made an arrest. "

"The man, (in his 50s) was arrested this afternoon in North County Dublin and is currently detained at Leixlip Garda Station under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984."

The Gardaí have thanked the public for their assistance following the appeal's renewal.

A referendum on the Eight Amendment will take place in May or June of 2018, says Leo Varadkar.

The Taoiseach has today told the Dáil that the government has agreed an “indicative timeline” for the highly-anticipated referendum.

The announcement comes amid fears that the special Oireachtas committee tasked with considering proposals to repeal the Eight Amendment will not have completed its work by the Christmas deadline.

In the case that the deadline is not met, the delay in legislation will see the date for the referendum pushed back.

As many as eight referendums will be held before the summer of 2019 including votes on women in the home, blasphemy, and liberalising divorce laws.

Love Lift by Holly Carpenter

Food, fitness and fashion influencer Holly Carpenter's new jewellery line has been in the works for months, but the model only recently debuted the collection on social media.

'And she has, she loves art and creating and obviously she loves fashion and accessorising. So it’s the perfect match.’

'I was looking for a really special headpiece – I wanted something unique, luxurious and affordable – and after searching high and low I realised that this was a collection that I wanted to bring to life myself.'

One of the world's biggest stock photo agencies is putting a stop to unrealistic female beauty standards.

Following years of backlash against the use of editing software in the media, Getty Images has announced that it is finally banning all images in which a model's body has been photoshopped.

Effective from October 1, 2017, contributors will no longer be able to submit “any creative content depicting models whose body shapes have been retouched to make them look thinner or larger.”

The move comes after the French government introduced a law which states that magazines must indicate when a photo of a model has been retouched. Failure to do so will result in a €37,500 fine.

However, while this is definitely a step in the right direction, it seems the company's new guidelines still allow for a certain amount of alteration.

An e-mail sent to contributors explained how “other changes made to models like a change of hair colour, nose shape, retouching of skin or blemishes, etc., are outside the scope of this new law, and are therefore still acceptable.”

2017, the year of Beyonce's twins, Chris Pratt and Anna Faris's breakup, and Kylie Jenner's potential pregnancy. 

While all of these Celebland stories have made major headlines, only one of them has been turned into a Halloween costume. 

It was a mere four days ago that rumours started swirling about Kylie Jenner's alleged pregnancy with rapper bf Travis Scott. 

 

A post shared by Kylie (@kyliejenner) on

The pregnancy has not even been formally confirmed yet by the Kardashian clan. 

However, that hasn't stopped pop-culture influenced costume site Yandy from turning it into a costume, ready to ship for this year's Halloween festivities. 

The costume imagery looks tellingly like the 20-year-old reality TV starlet-turned-makeup maven. 

Yandy 

From the glossy black wig to the selfie pose, this seriously looks like a Kylie Jenner costume. 

The pack comes with a white wrap dress and a fake pregnant belly (we actually kind of think we'd wear the dress by itself on a night out.)

The name of the costume – 'Reality Star in the Making,' also hints at it being a depiction of the young makeup guru.
