Khloé Kardashian responds after fans mistake her for her sister in new photo

Life in the public eye comes with a lot of pressure, especially if you're a member of America's First Family of reality television the Kardashians, whose appearances are subject to constant scrutiny.

Now, Khloé Kardashian, 36, has responded in the best way possible after a fan mistook her for her older sister Kourtney, 41, in a new series of Instagram photos.

In the snaps, Khloé can be seen posing in a loose black top and trousers with her long, brunette hair tied back in a ponytail while holding a rhinestone cup.

"My rhinestone cup makes water taste better," Khloé captioned the post. "Btw, Kourt is jealous of my cup."

Needless to say, the post went down a storm with Khloé's 121 million followers, who flocked to the comments section to compliment the pictures, but there was one comment which stood out, comparing Khloé to Kourtney.

One fan commented: "I thought this was Kourtney at first glance," alongside a smiley face.

In response to this, a flattered Khloé wrote: "Wow!! What a compliment."

This comes after Khloé was slammed earlier this year for looks "totally different" now, with some fans going as far as to accuse the mom-of-one of "changing her face".

The drama began back in May when Khloé posted a series of selfies to Instagram showing off her then-new "bronde" hair color.

Khloé captioned the post: "location: under b*tches skiiiinnnnn".

And while the mom-of-one might have intended her new look to steal the show when she posted the snaps to her 112 million followers, it was her face that stole the show.

One Instagram user wrote: "Wow this is so sad. Didn't even recognize the real Khole!!! You were so beautiful before".

Comments like the one above did not go unnoticed by the reality star, and now, in a new series of selfies where the 35-year-old looks much more like her recognizable self, she has hit back at the suggestion that she has dramatically altered her natural face.

One fan wrote: "Why do you look so different in all your photos?" and she sarcastically replied: "From my weekly face transplant clearly."

However, appearance aside, Khloé has also hit the headlines in recent weeks after Scott Disick subtly confirmed that she and the father of her child, Tristan Thompson, are back together.
