Kourtney Kardashian’s newly-announced pregnancy has been getting quite a bit of press lately. I wonder if the next five months will be like this? Perhaps we’ll be given hourly updates on the state of Kourtney’s womb, her revelations about everything from baby fashions and posing nude, to birth control and abortion. What surprised me was that Kourtney gave away her biggest exclusive – she named the father, on-again boyfriend Scott Disick – within hours of the news of her pregnancy breaking. She should have held on to the gossip for just a little bit longer. She could have convinced us that Jude Law was the dad! We would have bought that. Kourtney might even be a better baby-mama than Samantha Burke.

The question I’ve always had about this whole situation is whether Scott Disick is really interested or committed enough to be a father, and be with Kourtney for the long term. On Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Scott always seemed totally boring, and utterly uninterested in Kourtney beyond sex. There were rumors flosting around for a while that Scott is quite a womanizer, and that he cheated on Kourtney quite a bit when they were together last year. Now the Enquirer is reporting that Scott hasn’t changed his ways one bit since learning he’s going to be a father:

Kourtney Kardashian… announced on the “Today Show” on Aug. 13 that she’s pregnant by on-again/off-again boyfriend Scott Disick. Kourtney blurted out that Scott’s “very excited” about the baby, adding: “He was so for it and so excited from the beginning. And we’re really happy.”

But the night before she dropped her baby bombshell in New York, Kourtney’s handsome beau was acting nothing like a blissful father-to-be at an event in California.

“Scott was hitting on a blonde in a short black dress,” divulged a source at the event, an art show at Hollywood’s Milk Studios. “He was hugging her and rubbing her back. They were ordering vodka drinks for each other. He took a picture with her and even handed her his phone so she could punch in her number.”

And the blonde wasn’t the only woman to catch Scott’s eye that night, said the source.

“Before he moved in on the blonde, Scott was chatting up a brunette,” the source divulged. “He was on the hunt – not faithful boyfriend material by any means.”

Scott has reportedly cheated on Kourtney a number of times. The two split in January, but recently rekindled their relationship, which led to the pregnancy.

In July, Scott introduced Kourtney – who’s due in December – to an old pal as his “girlfriend” while they were having dinner at a restaurant in the Hamptons. But his skirt-chasing behavior while Kourtney was promoting her new show doesn’t bode well for their future, noted the source.

“Kourtney’s just starting to show, and Scott is already acting like a horndog,” said the source. “God help her once the baby arrives.”

Yeah, it’s not going to last. They’ll stay together until the baby is born – they might even make it a few months after that. And then they’ll break up, because Scott isn’t ready to settle down. Just my take! But I do wonder why Scott encouraged Kourtney to have the baby – as she told People Magazine yesterday. She said that she told Scott she was considering an abortion, and “He wanted me to talk about it more, but I just kept to myself. He said, ‘I really want you to keep it, but I will support you whatever you decide to do.’” In this week’s Star, there’s another report about this situation, too. Apparently, the Kardashian family is encouraging Kourtney to go ahead and dump Scott now. That’s the advice I would give her if I was one of her sisters.
