People reported that the baby was born via surrogate.
"It's always been my dream to be a mother and I'm so happy that Carter and I found each other," Hilton told People. "We are so excited to start our family together and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy."
In an interview with People in December, Hilton said she and Reum started planning to have a baby during the COVID-19 pandemic. The couple got married in November 2021.
"We knew we wanted to start a family, and I was like, 'This is perfect timing,'" she told People. "Usually, I'm on a plane 250 days out of the year, and let's just get all of the eggs stocked and ready, and we have tons of them just waiting."
A representative for Hilton did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
