In this work, we investigate the problem of a secretly broadcasting of a three-qubit entangled state between two distant partners. The interesting feature of this problem is that starting from two-particle entangle states shared between two distant partners we find that the action of a local cloner on the qubits and the measurement on the machine state vector generates three-qubit entanglement between them. The broadcasting of entanglement is made secret by sending the measurement result secretly using cryptographic scheme based on orthogonal states. Further we show that this idea can be extended to generate three-particle entangled states between three distant partners.
