Shah Rukh's 3rd baby news bigger than Kate or Kim Kardashian baby

While gossip and rumours travel at the speed of bytes on the social media highways, the Bollywood superstar’s ‘third child’ is set to conquer the celeb baby world.

Currently Kim Kardashian’s baby girl is queen of the cradle for tabloids, paparazzi and the huge celeb baby fanbase.

But now Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan is the talk of the town and his fan following in India and globally, in terms of sheer numbers, is ready to rock…the cradle (yes, forgive the puns).

In fact, SRK faces the unique challenge of having his new film - 'Chennai Express' – being derailed by this baby news of his.

So, perhaps it is time to separate fact from fiction.

THE RUMOURS:

Indian media claims that Shah Rukh and Gauri Khan are expecting a baby.

Tabloids and newspaper reports also claim that Bollywood’s power couple have used a surrogate to conceive this child.

And the baby is a boy, due in the first week of July.

THE GOSSIP:

According to reports out in India, it was Gauri Khan's decision to have a baby through surrogacy as she was keen on having a third child.

The couple are believed to have consulted the same doctor that the other Bollywood King Khan, Aamir and his wife Kiran Rao, went to for their surrogacy.

THE FACTS:

SRK and Gauri already have a 15-year-old son Aryan and 13-year-old daughter Suhana.

Shah Rukh and Gauri have been married for the past 22 years even before he made his Bollywood debut with Deewana in 1992.

The couple have not made any announcement about the baby – neither confirming, nor denying it.

So, anybody remember Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and her daughter Aaradhya? No, we thought not.
