Kylie Jenner.... like we didn't know she was pregnant okkkkk

First of all I would like to congratulate my girl on welcoming her new parasite I mean CHILD beautiful child to this world. As you should know, the Kween herself followed by her Klan announced the birth of her Daughter with baby daddy boyfriend Travis Scott on Sunday 2/4/2018. Now lets note this date as a monumental date in history as we analyze THIS article written by celebitchy on 2/1/18

Heres some Kool fallacies for y'all:

Accident:
"We don’t know if Kylie has had a healthy, no-drama pregnancy, just as we don’t know if she’ll have an easy delivery – “easy” being a relative term – but since she’s 20 years old and seemingly in good health, I would suspect she’s in pretty good shape overall."
----The assumption under the fact that We don't know if she is 1) in good health or 2)even pregnant (at the point of publishing this article she had yet to officially announce such or have it credibly announced, only assumptions at this point) 3)that all 20 year old and seemingly healthy women are in good shape. This is a sweeping generalization of health and what it means to be healthy and how that effects your pregnancy. Theres no way to tell that off of the way her face has looked for the past (at least) 9 months as thats all she's posted. 

Cum Hoc
"Kourtney Kardashian allowed the Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ cameras to film her deliveries – to varying degrees – so I know she did natural, no-drug births." 
----Kourtney allowed SOME filming therefor I KNOW she did natural, no-drug births. "Two things that happened at the same time must have a causal relationship."= Cum Hoc. Try again, Honey (author). 

Post Hoc
"I hope Kris Jenner stays close too – even though Kylie and Kris don’t seem to be the closest, she’s going to want her mom and Kris should be able to give her some good advice in the home stretch. And of course none of this will be filmed. It would not shock me at all if Kylie was phasing out her part in KUWTK."
----First of all I need to make it known that Kylie kept her pregnancy a secret until today 2/4/18 when she made a public announcement. Now, this article was published on 2/1/18. So, if this statement I quoted above had been made AFTER Kylie and her family and management teams OFFICIAL and credible announcement then this would not be a fallacy. But this is a completely blank assumption and completely unrelated to what is said right before however. the premise in which this author just blindly assumes that Kylie isn't going to be filmed is completely unnationalized on 2/1/18 until her and her brands official and creadible announcement? Are you Keeping up?
