On a new episode of her podcast, This Is Paris, Paris Hilton opened up about her decision not to let anyone in on the news of her son until she was ready. The new mom, 42, explained how she and husband Carter Reum decided on “keeping everything really private.”
"Not even my mom, my sisters, my best friend knew until he was over a week old," the heiress revealed on the show.
"It was really nice to have that with Carter, be our own journey together," she added. "I just feel like my life has been so public, and I've never really had anything be just mine."
Hilton explained how her life in the limelight had been “invaded” many times.
She explained that Carter, who has a daughter with former reality star Laura Bellizzi, “has always been a really private person.”
"So when we were talking about it, I really felt that I wanted this journey to be for us only," she explained.
This decision meant that Paris didn’t tell her close family members about the baby — not even her mom.
"When I introduced my mom to our baby boy, it was amazing to see the look on her face," Paris shared. "She was so surprised — just the look on her face, it was priceless."
Reality star Kathy Hilton told People that she and husband Rick Hilton are very excited about the birth of their grandson.
"Paris and Carter, we know you are going to be the most amazing parents," Kathy said in a statement to the outlet. "We are so thrilled for you both! Thank you for this perfect addition to our ever-growing, beautiful family."
