Kim Kardashian shows off her jaw-dropping curves on the cover of ELLE as she discusses choosing to have a baby girl, surrogacy and why husband Kanye West needs 'attention'
The last few years have seen her juggle her hectic schedule with her duties as a doting mother to her three children - daughter North, four, son Saint, two, and newborn Chicago.
And Kim Kardashian, 37, has now divulged all in the April issue of ELLE about the process of welcoming her third child via gestational carrier on January 15, as well as her future plans for expanding her family.
After confessing that she and husband Kanye West, 40, selected the sex of their third child, the reality star expressed that adding a fourth to their brood would prove tricky as she also needed to give her other half a healthy amount of attention.

Glitter like cover girl Kim in an embellished crop top
Adding to the enormous selection of magazines she has graced the covers of, here is Kim Kardashian fronting Elle USA's April issue. Kim stares into the lens of the camera, still, at this point, sporting her peroxide blonde locks (which have since been both pink and her natural raven) with a pair of black, skin tight leggings and a metallic bronze crop top.
The latter is from Jeremy Scott's Spring '18 collection, yet to hit stores and as seen on the runway with a pair of baggy cargo pants.
Kim is partial to a crop top, often wearing them to show off her much lusted-after abs. She has before worn designs from her husband Kanye West's label Yeezy, which tend to be jersey-style sports bras.
This little number however is quite the spectacle. It's glitzy, embellished and could easily be worn for a night out on the town paired with a whole host of separates: leather trousers, distressed denim or even a midi skirt would work well.

Kim stunned on the cover for the fashion bible, as well as the rest of the photoshoot, which saw her put focus on her famous curves and jaw-dropping features.
Accompanying the spread was a candid interview which saw her expand on her motherhood duties after welcoming her third child, a girl named Chicago, via gestational carrier at the beginning of the year.
