In an interview earlier this week, Kim defended her weight gain and spoke of embracing her “sexy” baby body, with the help of boyfriend Kayne West.

She said: “I think it's really cute now that my belly has popped a little bit. I think it's really a sexy thing; it's cute.”

“It's just such an exciting thing for the guys to see our bodies go through all these different changes. [Kanye] loves it and embraces it and he's helped me feel sexy and embrace it.”

Kim and Kourtney

Kim’s revelations have come as little sister Kendall Jenner has revealed her own battle with criticism over her weight.

“I'm constantly criticised for being too skinny,” she told the magazine.

“I’m trying to gain weight but my body won’t let it happen. What people don't understand is that calling someone too skinny is the same as calling someone too fat, it's not a nice feeling. “

Kendall also thanked her sisters for giving her encouragement, and has said that she goes to each one for different advice.

She claimed that Khloé is like her “second mum,” while Kourtney is “very realistic.”

But it is “supersmart” Kim, that has “been through a lot” so gives “literally the best advice,” according to Kendall.
