KIM Kardashian showed off her plump pout in a never-before-seen teen photo as a clapback to claims she used to have “thin lips.”
The 41-year-old shared the throwback photo after fans ripped her for using lip fillers.
Kim took to her Instagram Story on Tuesday to wish her longtime friend Simone Harouche a happy birthday.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum shared a throwback photo of the friends from their teenage years, which featured Kim’s visibly plump lips.
The teens dressed casually in the photo, while the SKIMS mogul and stylist both gave small grins at the camera.
Kim shared the photo shortly after fans slammed her for using lip fillers after old photos resurfaced of her with a thinner pout.
Fans recently took to Reddit to post numerous photos of Kim during her relationship with ex Reggie Bush, 37.
Reddit users were quick to point out that the reality star’s lips used to be much thinner before she got fillers.
The initial poster wrote: “I came across these pics of Kim from the Reggie Bush days & Folks seem to be a tad confused about Kim’s natural lips, so here is what they looked like before the filler…”
Others called out the KUWTK star for getting fillers, as another person commented: “She was beautiful in these pics! I’ll never understand why they all went crazy with the fillers and Botox and such lol ruined their faces.”
A following fan said: “Can we please go back to this. Shooting up lips should not be a trend.”
“She barely had a top lip. she edits her childhood pictures for sure,” one person added.
However, someone argued that Kim’s lips were never that thin.
The fan wrote: “She always had full lips top and bottom. Only difference is she has a natural ratio before where top lip was thinner than bottom whereas now it’s more equal. But to claim she had thin lips would be a falsity.”
Fans shared their reactions to Kim’s natural lips just one week after she was declared legally single in her divorce from Kanye West, 44.
TMZ confirmed the reality star is now single following a court showdown with the rapper.
While Kim attended the hearing on a video call, the rapper was not present when his lawyer did not object to restoring the reality star’s single status.
Kim and Kanye for married for nearly seven years before she filed for divorce in February 2021.
The exes share four kids together: North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two.
The court date took place after Kanye made numerous threats against his ex and her boyfriend Pete Davidson, 28.
The entertainer previously called Pete a “d**khead,” accused him of “destroying” their family and threatened to “beat his a**.”
Kanye’s latest music video for EAZY, which dropped hours after the court showdown, also featured a diss aimed at the Saturday Night Live star.
In the claymation segment, Kanye is depicted as he kidnapped the comic and placed a bag over his head.
As the music video continued, the Donda rapper tied up Pete and drove him around inside a four-wheeler to an abandoned area.
Kanye then buried the comedian in the abandoned area before flowers were shown growing out of Pete’s head.
