Kourtney Kardashian Giving Birth: Why It Wasn’t Filmed For ‘KUWTK’

Kourtney, 35, is understandably ready for a break after giving birth to her third child with longtime love Scott. But Kris wants her to strike while the baby is hot!

“Emotions are high with the family. Kris wants everything to be filmed, Kourtney wants time to relax and not be filmed,” a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “It was an exhausting pregnancy and birth.”

Kourtney is incredibly “relieved” to finally have her baby but the balance between her family’s public and private lives is taking its toll.

“Kris is a savvy business woman and she wanted to film the birth because she knows that having babies is of great interest to Kourtney and Scott fans,” another family insider reveals to HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.

“Kris and Kourtney have been butting heads over how much of her life they can film. Kourtney is a mother of three with a troubled baby daddy and doesn’t have the energy to be ‘on’ for the cameras. Kris doesn’t want her to throw away the potential of millions of dollars but Kourtney doesn’t care.”

Kourtney Kardashian’s Baby Birth Filmed For ‘KUWTK’? — The Truth.

Even though Kourtney agreed to filming the births of her children Mason, 5, and Penelope Disick, 2, we’re not surprised that she felt differently this time around, given the state of her relationship with Scott and his reported alcohol problems. Plus, who wants to be pushed into doing something so intimate when they don’t want to!

According to a new report from Radar Online, “Kris wanted the cameras to roll on the birth and Kourtney had to fight with her to keep it private. Kris just wants to exploit anything that she can, so of course this is no different.”

So what do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Are you disappointed that Kourtney didn’t film the birth of her third child? Let us know!
