Khloe Kardashian: Kim's Pregnancy & Weight Gain Criticism Hurts Her Feeling, Younger Sister Admits
Khloe Kardashian Odom is really sticking up for her older sister, who has faced months of intense ridicule.
Kim Kardashian has been heavily scrutinized due to her growing baby bump. Aside from being called fat, Kardashian has even been described as a whale, according to Buzzfeed. The mommy-to-be brushed off the negativity on The Tonight Show back in March telling Jay Leno, "I have the rest of my life to be skinny and to lose weight, and I'm not really worrying about it."
However, her younger sister seems fed up.
"I've been criticized about my weight forever and I've always been happy," Khloe told E! News on Wednesday. "So I totally understand how she feels. One day, she was at my house just complaining...not complaining but just saying how hurt she is and she says, 'I can't control it, I'm pregnant, I'm growing a baby, what do they want me to do?'"
While the 28-year-old gave kudos to Kim for holding her head up, she added, "I think it's wrong that anyone would criticize anyone for their weight, but then especially a pregnant person."
Kim posted a letter written by Khloe on her blog on May 19 and in writing, the younger sibling commended her sister's strength and beauty.
In the letter Khloe wrote, "I cannot tolerate one more vicious attack on my sister."
Despite the unfair criticism, Kim showed off her belly while on a family vacation in Mykonos, Greece in April. More shots of her bump can be seen on the new season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which premieres on Sunday, June 2.
