Fans Are Criticizing Kim Kardashian For Making Some Harsh And “Uncalled For” Jabs At Kourtney In The Finale, But The Pair Have Actually Been Shading Each Other For Months
Of all the different spats between the Kardashian/Jenner sisters we’ve witnessed over the years, Kim and Kourtney’s infamous fight was arguably the worst.
Kourtney was particularly pissed when Kim dismissed the fact that sickness and anxiety attacks can hinder one’s ability to work, and said she’d still push through and get her tasks done “no matter how sick” she was.
“You have this narrative in your mind. I will literally fuck you up if you mention it again. Literally, shut the fuck up! Change the narrative in your mind! I work my fucking ass off,” Kourt said.
“I don’t wanna hear this narrative any more about this work ethic,” she went on in a confessional. “It’s as if she’s better than everyone because she works more — it’s such bullshit. We don’t all have to do things the same way.”
When the episode aired, Kourtney admitted that the fight was “hard to watch” because the sisters had since grown and changed — and it seemed as though the tensions between them had been resolved. Fast forward to today, and Kourt is undeniably happier and living her best life. She’s married to Travis Barker, focused on her kids, and has admitted that KUWTK was a “toxic” environment for her.
But this week, as the Season 2 finale of the sisters’ newer Hulu series, The Kardashians, aired, fans couldn’t help but notice a couple of shady remarks Kim made about Kourtney.
Kim, who was about to brave the runway at Paris Fashion Week’s Balenciaga show, was advised to walk comfortably, as if she was at “home.”
And in response, she decided to drag Kourtney for no apparent reason. “Home with Kendall. Not at home with, like, Kourtney,” she laughed, insinuating that Kourtney is an awful example of a model.
Earlier in the episode, Kim had also mocked Kourtney as she hunched her back and slouched while imitating her. Once again, the random shade seemingly came out of nowhere, and viewers at home were pretty confused by the “uncalled for” jibes while watching.
“There was truly no reason for Kim to make this jab at Kourt out of nowhere. Her ‘joke’ didn’t even make sense,” one person wrote.
Fans went on to point out that Kim and Kourt have seemingly had “such a problem” with each other lately — and a closer look back at the past few months confirms that this is very apparent.
As we know, Kourtney — like the majority of the internet — has taken issue with Kim’s attitude towards work. Well, back in September, fans raised eyebrows as they noticed that the Poosh founder had seemingly shaded her sister when a troll claimed Kim has “always” been the hardest worker of the two.
“working will never be my top priority ??? (my kids and husband will always be!) and I am not apologizing for being me,” Kourtney wrote in response to the Instagram comment.
Reddit users immediately agreed that the wording of Kourtney’s comment seemed a little loaded. “The way she worded this sort of shades kim,” one person wrote. “I thought that too!!!” another agreed.
Months later, Kourt appeared to drag Kim again during an episode of The Kardashians — this time over her excessive preparation for the 2022 Met Gala.
Kim, as you might recall, went on a rigorous diet and exercise regime before the event in order to ensure she fit into Marilyn Monroe’s iconic “Happy Birthday Mr. President” dress. This involved three weeks of intense workouts and a very restricted food plan.
Kourtney, on the other hand, ventured out to Italy ahead of the big day and didn’t restrict her diet at all. Discussing the subject on the reality show, Kourt said of herself and Travis: “We’ve been eating pasta and drinking cappuccinos. I think it’s the opposite of anyone’s Met prep.”
Fans have since started to speculate the reasoning behind Kim and Kourtney’s apparent feud, suggesting that they’re clashing over the differing positions and attitudes in life — namely over body image and work ethic.
Well, with all signs pointing towards an apparent feud, we’ll be sure to update you if anything comes of it!
