Filthy rich Kim Kardashian’s decision to hire a surrogate to carry and deliver her and Kanye West’s most precious cargo – their third child – may have ended up saving the reality star an insanely large chunk of dough!
Breaking Celebrity News got an exclusive look at the binding agreement between the Wests, their surrogate and the surrogate’s husband – and it turns out the stars forked over just $68K, which is pennies compared to the multi-million dollar empire the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star is sitting on.
As Breaking Celebrity News reported, the Wests were in the room as their surrogate gave birth to their baby girl at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Jan. 15.
Kim, 37, and Kanye, 40, opted for a surrogate after Kim was told her own life would be at risk if she had a natural birth having gone through complications during her pregnancies with North, 4, and Saint, 2.
According to a contract viewed by Breaking Celebrity News, Kardashian and her rapper husband agreed to shell out a mere total of $68,850 to their surrogate “for all discomfort, pain, suffering, and inconveniences, for pregnancy and pre-birth child support expenses and post-birth expenses.”
The contract furthered that Kimye was responsible for paying “obstetrical, nursing, hospital and maternity care, pharmaceutical, pediatrics, or other costs” for the surrogate, as well as covering all “medical expenses, fees, costs and services relating to the pregnancy and the birth of the child” that aren’t paid by the surrogate’s insurance.

Included in the nearly $69k bottom line number, Mr. and Mrs. West agreed to purchase a life insurance policy or accidental death insurance policy with a face value of $350,000 and a cost “not to exceed $600.”
The Wests also were responsible covering $2,500 for the surrogate and husband’s legal fees, according to the document.
Of course, the agreement also covers the costs of some day-to-day necessities for the surrogate and her husband. Breaking Celebrity News can reveal the Wests, who reportedly sold their Bel-Air mansion last November for a whopping $17.8 million – agreed to paying a “monthly non-accountable expense allowance” of just $200 per month for their surrogate!
And if that seems low, the fashion moguls made out like bandits when it came to supporting their surrogate’s maternity wardrobe in comparison to their own designer collections. According to the contract, the surrogate signed off on receiving $800 “once” from Kimye, who launched their first-ever kids collection together last year, for maternity clothes.
The contract also spells out in detail the costs Kardashian and her husband were not responsible for during the pregnancy. The items include hotel room service, TV shows, game rentals, gift shop purchases, mini bar expenses, bottled water, and alcohol “no matter who consumed” it during their travels.
Despite the stingy contract, a source close to the surrogate told Breaking Celebrity News that she didn’t agree to carrying the famous infan
