The claws are out!
Pregnant Kourtney Kardashian was seen rocking a leopard-print bikini in Kauai, Hawaii, on Tuesday while enjoying a beach day with her daughter, Penelope, who just turned 11.
The soon-to-be mother of four — who announced last month that she and husband Travis Barker are expecting their first child together, a baby boy — spent the day soaking up the sun and playing with “P” in the water before heading back to relax at the 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay.
For the low-key girls’ day, the “Kardashians” star, 44 — who also shares sons Mason, 13, and Reign, 8, with ex-boyfriend Scott Disick — went wild in the Neptune Top ($75) and matching Oceanside Short ($75) from Emily Ratajkowski’s swimsuit line, Inamorata.
She also sported a black baseball cap and matching Miu Miu Runway sunglasses ($610).
It could just be coincidence, but perhaps the TV personality’s decision to not wear a Skims bathing suit from sister Kim Kardashian’s company was intentional.
Though Kourtney and her younger sister — who are only 18 months apart — have been competitive in the past, their relationship seems to be extra strained as of late.
On the currently airing season of the family’s Hulu reality show, which was shot last year, Kourtney accused Kim of stealing her wedding designer, Dolce & Gabbana, the ’90s aesthetic of her May 2022 nuptials and her thunder when the latter agreed to team up with the fashion house on a ’90s-inspired collection just four months later.
Kim, 42, added fuel to the fire this past weekend when she attended the Italian brand’s multi-day Alta Moda fashion show in Puglia, Italy, decked out in a black veiled ensemble that was eerily reminiscent of the one Kourtney wore during her D&G-hosted wedding weekend.
“Kourtney somewhere crying right now,” one of many social media users hypothesized.
Fans are also convinced that Kim’s new partnership with wellness brand Alani Nu is a dig at her health-conscious sister, who not only runs a lifestyle blog called Poosh but also launched Lemme, a line of vitamins and supplements, in November 2022.
But the rivalrous siblings’ feud seems to go beyond just business.
On a recent episode of “The Kardashians,” Kanye West’s ex-wife shut down a DMV and brought her entire glam squad with her to ensure she got the perfect photo for her driver’s license, which she needed to renew.
The Skkn by Kim founder was seen unapologetically getting her hair and makeup touched up before requesting multiple takes in front of the camera.
Hours after the episode dropped, Kourtney took to Instagram to seemingly troll her sister by posting her driver’s license picture, presumably snapped sans-glam squad.
“Say my name,” she cheekily captioned the post, making sure she included the “Department of Motor Vehicles” geotag.
