According to a new report, as Beyonce continues to work on her career, a surrogate will take on the role of bringing a second child into her and husband, Jay Z's family.

It has been three years since they welcomed their daughter, Blue Ivy, so it is no surprise that they are ready to add another baby to their clan.

Speculation that the couple has chosen to use a surrogate comes by way of a new report from In Touch.

An insider told the magazine that Beyonce and Jay Z "are in the process of having another baby through a surrogate."

The source says that the couple is choosing this option in order to avoid another high risk pregnancy.

"They were trying for several months, but Beyonce was having trouble," says the insider. "She was scared about another high risk pregnancy, so surrogacy became the best decision for them."

This is not shocking, as Beyonce has openly discussed her painful miscarriage before.

"They didn't want to take any more risks, so after the ironclad legal documents were drawn up, it took them about two months to find the perfect woman to carry their child," continues the insider."The surrogate is still in the early stages of pregnancy, so they have yet to announce it to the public."

Some also say that the star is jealous that Kim Kardashian got pregnant again before she did.

Reports also say that the couple is trying to save their marriage by having a second child. Apparently, the couple hopes that a new addition will mend their relationship.
