KIM Kardashian and Kanye West have been left fearing for the safety of their unborn child after photographs of their surrogate have been leaked online.

The Hollywood couple, who already have five-year-old North and two-year-old Saint, have reportedly pulled out all the stops possible to keep the identity of the woman carrying their child a secret, but the word has still got out.

Now, the 27-year-old stay-at-home mum has been revealed after photos of the pregnant surrogate have been touted to publications.

Following the revelation, a source told The Sun Online: "As soon as they got told the surrogate had been pictured, and that the photos were out there, Kim and Kanye got desperately worried.

"They wanted to keep her identity private, both for her safety and the baby's. It was their number one priority."

The pair have been super vigilant over the privacy and security surrounding their family after Kim's horrific Paris robbery ordeal last year.

Now they fear that she may become a target of people who have come after the high-profile family before, and are furious the top secret info could become public knowledge quickly.

Our source continued: "Kanye was so angry - he was calling his security team, asking how this had happened, while Kim was frantic with worry. "They've called a meeting with their security team so they can protect their surrogate."

Kim and Kanye are said to be welcoming a baby girl in January after hiring a surrogate to help them expand their family.

According to TMZ, the pair decided to have a third baby via surrogacy because of Kim's well-documented medical issues during her previous pregnancies.

Another source told People: "The entire family is over the moon.

"Given her health scares in the past, Kim felt the need to hire a surrogacy agency that helped serve as the liaison in finding a healthy woman who would be a great surrogate option for her and Kanye.

"Both of them have been super involved in the process."

The US gossip site also reported in September more information on the mum, including the fact she was a college graduate who had two children of her own.
