Following the birth of her daughter on January 15, Kim Kardashian couldn’t have been prouder. ‘#momofthree,’ she announced after baby Chicago was delivered via gestational surrogate.

Since then we’ve been seeing more of Kim than ever. In the weeks since Chi’s birth, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has been bombarding Instagram with saucy snaps in a bid to show the world she’s as sexy as ever.

But behind closed doors, friends believe she’s a woman struggling. With her husband Kanye West heading off to Europe 12 days after their third child’s birth, Kim’s now facing up to life as a single mum to Chi and her older siblings North, four, and two-year-old Saint.

‘Kim has stood by him through his ups and downs, so reducing her to, in effect, a single mum to three kids, even with their hired help on hand, is cruel and unfair,’ a source says.
