Kourtney Kardashian Spoke About Facing Tons Of Speculation That She’s Pregnant While She And Travis Barker Have Been Trying For A Baby And It’s Heartbreaking

“I’m so into my thicker body. I looked at photos of my body when I was so skinny… It is cringey.”

It’s safe to say that the past couple of years have been pretty exciting for Kourtney Kardashian.

And eager to expand their blended family, Kourtney and Travis — each of whom have three children from previous relationships — have spent months trying for a baby through IVF, much of which has been documented across their Hulu reality series The Kardashians.

“Every single person on social media is always like, ‘Kourtney’s pregnant. Kourtney’s gained so much weight,’” she told Kris. “It’s so rude to comment on people when you have no idea what they’re actually going through.”

Kourtney then goes on to address the ongoing speculation that she’s pregnant, which she seemingly cannot avoid.

Wasting no time, however, Kourt shut down the assumptions as she responded to a user who wrote, “Wait a minute did I miss that she’s pregnant.” Kourt replied, “nope, but you’re missing a woman’s body.”

She later explains how she’s come to grow super comfortable with her weight gain thanks to Travis’s constant reassurance that she’s “perfect.”

“Every day, Travis is like, ‘You’re perfect.’ If I make one complaint, he’s like, ‘You’re perfect. You’re so fine… You’ve never been better,’” she says with a huge grin. “And now I’m so into it.”

Elaborating further in a confessional, Kourtney says: “Having a partner who’s so supportive of me and always complimenting me no matter what, it’s just helped me to really embrace the changes — and actually to the point where I love the changes now.”

“My ass is amazing. I’m so into my thicker body,” she says, before later adding: “I also love being curvier. It’s just channeling that queen energy and embracing the woman that I am.”

Meanwhile, Kourtney goes on to reflect on her past weight, claiming that she was “super skinny” when she was in past “toxic relationships.”

“I looked at photos of my body when I was so skinny… It is cringey,” she says.

“When I was super skinny, [it was] a time that I was super anxious. Not about eating, not about staying at a certain weight, but just in toxic relationships,” she continues.

“I used to always say this: When I’m super skinny, just know I’m not happy,” she adds. And while Kourtney doesn’t name any names, she is seemingly referring to her rocky past relationship with Scott, much of which was blighted by his cheating scandals and his alcohol and drug use.

In fact, fans had previously noted that Kourtney seems happier than ever lately, while the reality star herself has gone from the self-proclaimed “bitch” of KUWTK to someone with a much healthier mindset and an “abundance” of loving feelings.

“It’s nice to see Kourtney find true love and happiness in her 40s. Her first marriage! Life doesn’t end after 35, kids,” one person wrote in response to Kourtney’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live back in April.
