Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have expanded their property empire in California by reportedly purchasing the house next-door to their sprawling estate in Hidden Hills.

The rapper and the reality Tv star bought their first Hidden Hills home for a reported $20 million (£12.5 million) over the summer (14) and reports now suggest they have snapped up the adjacent property for $2.9 million (£1.8 million).

The couple's latest purchase comes with around 1.5 acres of land, adding to the 3.5 acres they already own surrounding their luxury mansion, according to E! News.
