Kylie Jenner has fired back at online trolls who criticised her changing body shape, reminding them that she gave birth to a child. The 22-year-old reality star and billionaire entrepreneur responded after a fan page shared a 2017 clip of her at a Las Vegas event, prompting comments about how 'skinny' she used to look.
One user wrote, 'wow she's so skinny here,' while another added, 'she was better.' Kylie, who has 170 million Instagram followers, spotted the exchange and replied simply: 'i birthed a baby.' The comment referenced her daughter Stormi Webster, born in February 2018, whom she shares with rapper Travis Scott.
Kylie has previously spoken about the physical changes after pregnancy, revealing she gained 40 pounds. In a 2018 interview with E!, she said her body had changed significantly, including larger breasts, stretch marks, and a different waist, stomach, and thighs. She later credited dietary changes for helping her regain her pre-pregnancy figure.
The clapback comes as Kylie has been focusing on charitable efforts, reportedly producing hand sanitisers for hospitals amid the coronavirus pandemic. Her response has been widely praised for shutting down body-shaming comments with a simple, powerful reminder of motherhood.
