Beyonce Struggling To Get Pregnant? Considering A Secret Surrogate For Baby Boy?

Is Beyonce pregnant? This seemed to be the question of the year in 2015.

The music royalty had been subjected to intense scrutiny by the public as well as the media not only for her supposedly rocky marriage but also for her attempt at making a younger sibling for daughter Blue Ivy.

Although there have been many claims throughout the year, Celebrity Dirty Laundry reported that trying to conceive has been hard on the diva.

Beyonce and her husband Jay Z are allegedly "desperately trying to get pregnant" for years now to no avail. The birth of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's baby boy, Saint West, only made the couple even more frantic for a little brother for Blue.

In July, Hollywood Life reported that the hip hop royalty couple went through months of IVF treatments just to get Beyonce pregnant. However, she allegedly wanted to keep the news as quite as possible, even hiding a possible baby bump whenever she goes out.

"They've gone through so much to get here that they don't want to jinx it by telling everyone before the three-month mark," a source reportedly told OK! Magazine.

More or less six months later and the couple still hasn't come out and announced the supposed pregnancy. Could she still be trying to conceive Blue Ivy's little sibling.

Could Beyonce be desperate enough to get pregnant through a surrogate?

According to Star Magazine, the power couple discussed hiring a surrogate to carry their second child instead because of their frustration.

"They've come close a couple of times only to be met with disappointment," an insider reportedly said, calling the situation "heartbreaking."

Rumors that Beyonce's inability to get pregnant was causing problems between the couple have also been cropping up. Jay Z was also allegedly annoyed that West was able to have a son before him.
