KOURTNEY Kardashian has shocked fans with a new harsh jab seemingly directed at her younger sisters Kim and Khloe.
The Kardashians star has been sharing pH๏τos and videos of her baby bump as she nears the birth of her fourth child, this time with her husband Travis Barker.
Kourtney, 44, took to her Instagram on Tuesday to post an update about her pregnancy.
The reality star flaunted her growing baby bump in a skimpy orange ʙικιɴι while visiting an undisclosed tropical location.
The TV personality posed outdoors among lush greenery and flowers, barefoot with black sunglᴀsses and her dark hair in a messy bun.
Kourtney flaunted her mama body while overlooking a beautiful ocean view.
She finished out her post with a funny clip of her floating on a mᴀssive round pool float in a peaceful setting.
The Poosh founder lay on her side showing off her curvy figure as the wind blew her across the water.
She captioned her post with a message for her unborn child, reading: “Growing you inside of me, my son, is the greatest blessing, honor and joy.”
FAN THEORIES
But fans took the note of “growing” her son as direct shade to her sisters Kim, 42, and Khloe, 39, who suffered difficult pregnancies in their 30s and had to use surrogacies for their later children.
Several took to Reddit to discuss the brutal jab, one writing: “It’s funny how some of things they say can be seen as both appreciation and shade to each other lol.”
“Oh s**t, I didn’t even pick up on that til I saw your comment but I can 100% see her intending some subliminal shade,” a second replied.
“LOL ! It’s been up 6 hours and Khloe not Kim have liked it,” a third noticed.
“Of course not. Not surprised.. they’re seething with jealousy, I’m sure,” a fourth wrote.
“Khloe and Kim both used surrogates. Khloe has been open about how disconnected she is from Tate because of it,” a fifth reminded.
“Wowwww just put it together – sH๏τs fired at khlomoneyyy okurr,” a final claimed.
BABY BIRTH
Kim welcomed her two oldest kids North, 10, and Saint, seven, through natural birth and her two youngest Chicago, five, and Psalm, four, with a surrogate.
Khloe also welcomed her daughter True, five, in natural birth, but due to complications used a surrogate for her son Tatum, one.
SURROGACY REGRETS
In May, the Good American founder admitted that she felt disconnected from her tiny tot and had difficulties with “bonding” after not carrying him to term.
The reality star slammed the process of surrogacy, which she called transactional, and said she felt guilty that another woman gave birth to her child.
Khloe welcomed her son, Tatum, via a surrogate in August 2022 with her ex, Tristan Thompson.
She reflected on the journey during a conversation with her sister Kim and Scott Disick during The Kardashians Season 3 premiere.
Khloe said: “The surrogate process, Kim knows, it’s really hard for me.”
Kim explained to Scott: “She had a very hard time accepting the whole process,” as Khloe said: “It’s a mind f**k. It’s really the weirdest thing.”
Kim added: “I do think that there is a difference when the baby is in your belly, the baby actually feels your real heart.
“There’s no one else on this planet that will feel you from the inside like that.”
Khloe looked like she was holding back tears as she admitted she feels more disconnected to Tatum than she does to her daughter True, five.
In a confessional, she said: “I definitely buried my head in the sand during that pregnancy that I didn’t digest what was happening.
“So I think when I went to the hospital, I really think that was the first time it really registered.
“It has nothing to do with the baby but I was in a state of shock I think because of my entire experience in general.
“I felt very guilty that this woman just had a baby and then you take the baby and go to another room.”
Khloe went on: “It’s such a transnational experience because it’s not about him.
“I wish someone was honest about surrogacy and the difference of it. It doesn’t mean it’s bad, it’s just different.”
