North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has two daughters, a Korean newspaper claimed on Thursday, citing an unnamed source.

Ri Sol-ju, Kim’s wife, gave birth to his second child last December, according to the source, Hankook Ilbo said.

The paper said that it remains unknown whether his first daughter, born in late 2010, is also from Ri Sol-ju, because she appeared on stage as a singer of Unhasu Orchestra that year. The sources said “it is unimaginable for the pregnant ‘princess’ to perform on stage in the secretive regime.”

Ri Sol-ju gave birth to a healthy daughter, according to American basketball legend Dennis Rodman who visited Pyongyang in February this year.

The source added that the North Korean leader’s closest confidants are worried because only sons are allowed to succeed to the leader’s throne in the regime.
