Kourtney Kardashian has been claimed as a role model by her pal Erica Mena for not hiding her unplanned pregnancy.

Kourtney Kardashian has earned praise from her friend for the way she handles her unplanned pregnancy. "The fact that Kourtney puts everything out there about her pregnancy for the world to know makes her more of a role model," Erica Mena, Kourtney's co-star in "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami", told E! Online.

"It's realistic and it's the truth, and for a young girl going through the same thing - forgetting to the take the pill, considering abortion - it's nice to know Kourtney is someone a person can look up to in the public eye," Erica argued. She continued praising Kourtney, saying "She has this glow at all times. She adds a new definition to the word beautiful. She's just embracing her pregnancy, and you can tell by looking at her that she couldn't be happier."

During the interview, Erica also claimed Scott Disick, with whom Kourtney got pregnant, is ready to be a father. "He got a whole feel for fatherhood-holding hands with my son, playing with him, feeding him a bottle," she explained. "He was a natural with my baby. By how seriously he cared for my child, it wasn't shocking when we found out a little later that he was going to be a dad."

Kourtney Kardashian first announced that she is expecting her first child on August 12. The Kim Kardashian's sister told Ryan Seacrest from E! Online that she learned she is pregnant after she got a positive home pregnancy test, which was later confirmed by her doctor. "I was so shocked," she recalled.
