It’s not like one of the Kardashian/Jenners to shy away from social media. The family brand seem to dominate timelines whether you follow them or not.
Since the birth of her daughter Stormi back in February, Kylie Jenner has been forward in sharing her journey into motherhood with her fans.
Despite keeping her pregnancy away from the internet’s prying eyes, it seems Kylie Jenner has now decided to go back to keeping pictures of her daughter away from her social media accounts.
Posting on Instagram yesterday, June 10, Kylie posed for a candid selfie which showed just a sliver of her daughter Stormi.
Her 109 million followers were quick to react to the image, which she’d captioned: ‘i spy with my little eye…’
One said:
Cropped stormi’s face. bad mom
While another said:
Who crops their own child???
While another commented simply:
she cUT HER BABY OUT
Not one to let it slide, Kylie responded, saying:
yeah i cut my baby out. I’m not sharing photos of my girl right now.
Kylie went even further too. After confirming she wouldn’t share any new photos of Stormi, she also deleted older photos which showed her daughter’s face, according to the Daily Mail.
It might not come as a surprise how Kylie won’t be sharing any more pictures of her daughter, though.
Throughout her pregnancy, the reality TV star shied away from the limelight, choosing to go through the experience relatively privately.
Explaining her decision on Instagram, Kylie said:
I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark through all the assumptions. I understand you’re used to me bringing you along on all my journeys. my pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world.
Stormi has only been around a few months, but has already been the centre of attention of the gossip pages.
Rumours were flying around recently when people were convinced her dad was not who everyone thought it was.
The father of the child was reported to be 26-year-old rapper Travis Scott, who Kylie Jenner met after breaking up with on-again, off-again, boyfriend, Tyga, in May 2016.
Many, many Twitter users, however, thought Stormi bore a striking resemblance to someone else close to Kylie – her bodyguard:
Although people seem convinced by the latest Kardashian-Jenner ‘Konspiracy’, Kylie and Travis are reportedly laughing it off.
In fact, as a source close to the couple told Hollywood Life, they think the theory is ridiculous:
Kylie thinks it’s hilarious that fans think her bodyguard could be her baby daddy and not Travis. Travis even got a huge kick out of it and laughed at the outrageous meme.
Babies can look like anyone when they’re that young, so Kylie and Travis think it is stupid that people are drawing that connection and haven’t even given it a second thought.
Since people are still tweeting about the rumours, the pair’s response has clearly done nothing to dampen it.
And Kylie’s latest move to delete all pictures of Stormi certainly won’t quieten the rumour mill either!
