Kourtney Kardashian is "proud" of her body shape, despite gaining a few pounds during the lockdown period

She shared: "I noticed someone left a comment the other day and they kept commenting on a photo that I posted, saying, 'Pregnant, pregnant, pregnant.' I commented back and said, 'This is the shape of my body. I've definitely gained a few pounds over this quarantine time, and I love my body and I'm proud of my shape and I'm obviously posting it and this is the shape of my body.' I don't think I look pregnant at all. We're all shaped differently and that’s my body and I’m proud of it, so that’s how I respond to the negative comments. It’s not always easy."

And the 41-year-old reality television personality has slammed those who criticise her body online, insisting she just "kills them with kindness".

Speaking about how she copes with trolls, she added: "It's about killing them with kindness. Try not to let those comments affect you. If they do and you know that, then don’t look at comments. I know it’s easier said than done, but really try to keep the positivity for your mental health."

Kourtney admits she, too, tends to focus on the "negative" - especially when it comes to comments on her social media posts.

Speaking in a Poosh Q&A session on Instagram, she shared: "I think we tend to focus on the negative. I notice, for myself, that the negative questions stand out to me.

"I just want to respond to those people sometimes even more than the positive ones, which isn’t always fair."
