Chicago West and Stormi Webster‘s third Musketeer has arrived. On Thursday, TMZ reported that Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson had welcomed their first child, a baby girl, into the world. Kardashian reportedly gave birth at a hospital in the Cleveland area around 4 a.m. on Thursday.

The happy news comes amid rumors of Thompson’s infidelity. Earlier this month, the Daily Mail released footage that appears to show Thompson kissing another woman at a New York City club in early April. Shortly after, TMZ released another, equally grainy video of Thompson allegedly kissing and canoodling two (non-Khloé) women at a hookah lounge in Washington, D.C., in October 2017, around the time that rumors of Kardashian’s pregnancy first began circulating. Though neither Thompson nor the Kardashian camp have yet to comment on the allegations, a “source” told Entertainment Tonight that, regarding the NYC incident, Thompson was doing “nothing more” than just speaking to the woman in the video.

The couple, who started dating in the summer of 2016, confirmed that they were expecting in late December via Instagram, after months of relentless speculation. “My greatest dream realized! We are having a baby! I had been waiting and wondering but God had a plan all along. He knew what He was doing. I simply had to trust in Him and be patient. I still at times can’t believe that our love created life!” Kardashian captioned a black-and-white photo of Thompson cradling her baby bump. “I am so thankful, excited, nervous, eager, overjoyed, and scared all in one! But it’s the best bundle of feelings I’ve ever felt in my life!”

Though Kardashian and her NBA player partner have yet to announce their daughter’s name, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star did share earlier this year that it will likely start with a K or T. In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres in January, before she knew the sex of her baby, Kardashian mulled over some possible names. “I think if it’s a boy, I’ll go with Junior, Tristan Jr.,” she said, before revealing with a sigh that she was feeling uninspired about names for a daughter. “For a girl, I don’t know where to begin. I want a ‘K’ or a ‘T.'”

Whatever her name is, the newest addition to the Kardashian-Jenner dynasty is surely destined for great things. Not only did Kardashian tweet in early March that she hopes her daughter will be “forever best friends” with cousins Chicago and Stormi, who were born on January 15 and February 1, respectively, but the very next day, she posted a list of “Hopes for My Daughter” on her app and website. Among the 33-year-old’s wishes for her little one are that she will “speak many languages,” excel at self-love, have a secret talent for singing, and wait until she’s 13 to watch her first episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Hey, a new mom can dream!
