Kim was sceduled to appear on The Ellen Degeneres Show on Thursday, May 9, but had to cancel because her surrogate had gone in to labor and was rushed to the hospital. Instead, Kim's older sister Kourtney Kardashian surprised the audience (and Kris Jenner) by showing up with six of the momager's grandchildren. "So, my mom doesn’t even know this, but Kim’s surrogate went into labor, so she’s at the hospital," she revealed to Ellen to which Kris replied: "What! What are we doing here?"
