Paris Hilton is starting 2023 with a new title — mom!

The businesswoman and media personality, 41, and husband Carter Reum recently welcomed their first baby together, a son, via surrogate, PEOPLE can confirm.

“It’s always been my dream to be a mother and I’m so happy that Carter and I found each other,” the new mom tells PEOPLE exclusively. “We are so excited to start our family together and our hearts are exploding with love for our baby boy.”

Sharing the exciting news on Instagram Tuesday, Hilton posted a close-up photo of the baby gripping her thumb. “You are already loved beyond words 💙,” she wrote.

Hilton has previously been open about her desire to become a parent alongside Reum, 41.

During an interview with PEOPLE in December, the Love Rush fragrance founder discussed the couple’s plan to have a baby after the pair tied the knot late last year, sharing that she and Reum began the in-vitro fertilization (IVF) process during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We started going and doing it like a few months in because the world was shut down,” she told PEOPLE. “We knew we wanted to start a family, and I was like, ‘This is perfect timing. 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.”

Hilton and Reum got engaged in Feb. 2021 after more than a year of dating and tied the knot in a three-day wedding ceremony that November. A longtime friend of the Hilton family, Reum — a Chicago native — is an author, entrepreneur, and started venture capital firm M13.

“I have gotten the unique opportunity to get to know the real Paris on a daily basis, just the two of us during these past 15 months, and I couldn’t be more excited and lucky to have her as my future wife and partner,” Reum said in February 2021. “She shines with her kindness, work ethic, authenticity and her voice in making the world a better place, and she will do the same as a future mother and wife.”

In an April episode of Nikki and Brie Bella’s The Bellas Podcast, Hilton discussed the excitement she and Reum share about expanding their family.

“I love being married. I just feel like I finally found my perfect match and I just feel so safe,” Hilton said of Reum. “I finally have my home and I just can’t wait to start a family and have kids.”

Explaining that she and Reum have “been talking about kids since the beginning — since the first couple, like, months of dating,” Hilton said that the pair “would love to have twins.”

“I think that would be amazing,” the “Stars Are Blind” singer added, before noting that they would like “three or four” children overall.

Paris Hilton’s pop career was brief but beautiful, giving us one of the most enduring hits of the Y2K era, the iconic “Stars Are Blind.” If the song continues to be one of your most-played tunes on Spotify or Apple Music year after year, you’re not alone — and Hilton herself knows it. Just in time for New Year’s Eve, the reality star and entrepreneur is bringing back the classic song in full Y2K glam, of course.

Hilton shared the news of “Stars Are Blind (Paris’s Version),” which is exclusively available on Amazon Music, on Instagram after a few days of teasing an upcoming announcement that would, in her words, “break the Internet.” In true pop star fashion, she’s in a bedazzled, shimmering dark catsuit cinched with a wide belt, a pair of skyscraper platform stilettos and fingerless gloves. Her hair is styled in center-parted golden blonde waves, and even her nails are a throwback; instead of a matching black manicure, she’s rocking a French manicure. A subtle smoky eye, a feline flick of false lashes, contoured cheeks and a nude glossy lip finish off her pop star glam. The entire ensemble would be right at home anywhere from 2007-2010, but it feels perfectly Paris regardless of the year. No one can say Hilton’s look isn’t consistent year after year!

It seems as though Hilton is itching to get back in the studio and revisit her pop career, and we know she could easily churn out the bubblegum pop beauty moments. In late 2021, she channeled the Britneys and Christinas of the ’90s with a super high bouncy ponytail, and she does have a line of successful fragrances just like Britney, Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez. The stars are aligned (see what we did there?) for a Hilton music comeback in 2023, so make your spray tan appointment and grab the body glitter and you’ll be sliving your best life.

Paris Hilton is turning yet another page in her multi-faceted life story.

PEOPLE can exclusively reveal the cover of the socialite–turned–businesswoman’s upcoming Paris: The Memoir, in which The Simple Life star promises to open up about her not-so-simple life experiences with “courage, honesty and humor.”

Per a press release, “Paris Hilton is ready to take stock, place it all in context, and share her story with the world,” the description continues. “Separating the creation from the creator, the brand from the ambassador, Paris: The Memoir strips away all we thought we knew about a celebrity icon, taking us back to a privileged childhood lived through the lens of undiagnosed ADHD and teenage rebellion that triggered a panicked — and perilous — decision by her parents to send her away.”

Hilton, 40, will also be “recounting her perilous journey through pre-#METOO sexual politics with grace, dignity and just the right amount of sass.”

“Most importantly, Paris shows us her path to peace while she challenges us to question our role in her story and in our own,” the synopsis concludes. “Welcome to PARIS.”

Hilton’s memoir will be released under Dey Street Books, which is an imprint of William Morrow. She joins a star-studded publishing list that includes Kelly Ripa, Gabrielle Union and Dave Grohl.

Hilton’s book release comes after she’s experienced a series of major personal and professional changes. Previously, the DJ starred in the 2020 documentary This Is Paris, which heavily detailed the alleged abuse she endured while attending Provo Canyon School in Utah. She later testified against the school in court and, in doing so, helped pass a bill calling to reform institutions of this caliber.

Hilton also got married to Carter Reum in November 2021. They recently celebrated their first wedding anniversary with a star-studded bash.

To commemorate the occasion, Hilton recently released her 29th fragrance Love Rush. “I just wanted something that was very romantic and reminded me of love … and something that was going to be really memorable and just give you that feeling of forever love,” she told PEOPLE of the scent.

Looking ahead, Hilton is now undergoing IVF so the couple can start a family together.

“My husband and I wanted to enjoy our first year of marriage together as a couple and we were always planning on starting our family in 2023,” she said this week in an Instagram Story. “IVF is always a journey for everything but we’re so fortunate that we have lots of healthy embryos ready and waiting to be part of our Cutesy Crew!”

Hilton added, “As everyone knows I have an extremely busy work and travel schedule but nothing gets me more excited than becoming a mom in 2023!”

EXCLUSIVE: Vertical Entertainment has picked up North American distribution rights to erotic horror ensemble Alone At Night (previously known as 18 & Over).

The film follows Vicky (Ashley Benson), a young woman looking for an escape after going through a tumultuous breakup. After retreating to a friend’s remote cabin in the woods to clear her head, she continues modeling sexy lingerie for her devoted followers on 18 & Over, an adults-only, live-streaming website. But when the power goes out, Vicky discovers something terrifying awaiting her in the dark — a masked killer wielding a crowbar who’s hellbent on bringing her night to a grisly end.

Cast comprises Benson (Pretty Little Liars), Pamela Anderson (Baywatch), Luis Guzmán (Traffic), model Winnie Harlow, musician G-Eazy, rapper A$AP Nast, Paris Hilton, Lindsey Pelas (Extraction), John Robinson (Lords of Dogtown) Cassius Corrigan (Huracán), and Sky Ferreira (Baby Driver). Social Media influencers Lindsey Pelas, Twan Kuyper, Steven Spence, Cheyrelle Fontenette, Shannon Hamilton, and Clara McGregor round out the cast.

The film’s original score was composed by G-Eazy, marking the rapper’s first film score.

The slasher pic is directed by Jimmy Giannopoulos and penned by Giannopoulos alongside Diomedes Raul Bermudez. The film is slated for a day-and-date release on January 20, 2023.

The film is produced by Purpose Film’s Diomedes Raul Bermudez, Artemis Pictures’ Siena Oberman, Cassius Corrigan, and Ashley Benson. Executive-producers are Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis, Terry Dougas, Jean-Luc De Fanti, and Jamin O’Brien. Peter Buntaine is cinematographer. Finance comes from Hercules Film Fund.

Tony Piantedosi negotiated on behalf of Vertical Entertainment and Rhea Films negotiated on behalf of the filmmakers. Below is a first look still from the project, which is now complete.

Vertical’s SVP of Acquisitions Tony Piantedosi commented: “The words ‘fun’ and ‘terrifying’ don’t typically go together but Jimmy Giannopoulos has made a film where you run the gamut of emotions with a great horror story and unique casting choices that will thrill audiences this coming January.”

“With Alone at Night I wanted to make the kind of movie I would have snuck into as a teen. Slasher, stoner, a sexy thriller with killer music,” said director Jimmy Giannopoulos. “Playing on the nostalgia of my favorite B-horror we truly made a terrifyingly fun film. Though the themes of isolation and obsession are as old as time, culture always breeds new ways for them to manifest. You can isolate but you can’t hide.”
