Kourtney Kardashian has opened up about the growing love she has for her "thicker body" - all thanks to her husband, Travis Barker.
The eldest Kardashian daughter spoke candidly during a confessional in this week's installment of The Kardashians, which premiered on Hulu this Thursday (October 6).
In the episode, viewers got to see all five KarJenner siblings maintaining their busy schedules - with Kim and Kendall jetting off to Milan Fashion Week (and Kendall debuting her new red hair for the Prada Spring/Summer 2023 runway), Khloé enjoying a weekend getaway and enjoy weed gummies with Kris, Kylie posing seductively with a strawberry to shoot an ad campaign for her new lip oils, and Kourtney being made the cover star of Bustle magazine.
The mom-of-three looked stunning as she showed off her curvaceous body in a variety of different looks for the shoot, which took place at her home in Los Angeles.
Kardashian Barker touched upon the comments she continues to receive online about her weight, as many people have speculated that she could be pregnant. This is nothing new for the star, who hit out at an Instagram user not long ago after they seemed to believe she was cradling a baby bump in her recent Instagram upload.
"Wait a minute did I miss that she's pregnant," the user wrote, to which Kardashian Barker replied: "Nope, but you're missing a woman's body."

Even last season, the 43-year-old opened up to her mom, Kris Jenner, about the online reactions, saying: "Every single person on social media is always like, 'Kourtney's pregnant. Kourtney's gained so much weight.' It's so rude to comment on people when you have no idea what they're actually going through."
This week, she touched upon her body again, as it still seems to be a hot topic in the media - as many female celebrities are sadly likely accustomed to. She commented on how her recent weight gain can be attributed to the hormones she is currently taking, as she and Barker embark on an IVF journey to hopefully add another baby to their blended brood of six.
Telling the camera during her confessional, the television personality said: "So, obviously my body's changed. It was all of the hormones the doctors put me on."
"Eight months of IVF treatment has definitely taken a toll on my body mentally and physically, and I think it's taken a lot to get me to the place of feeling really comfortable and happy with the changes," she added.
Though, she fortunately has the firm support and love of her husband behind her, happily stating: "Every day, Travis is like, 'You're perfect.' If I make one complaint, he's like, 'You're perfect. You're so fine… You've never been better,' and now I'm so into it."
She continues: "Having a partner who's so supportive of me and always complimenting me no matter what, it's just helped me to really embrace the changes - and actually to the point where I love the changes now. My ass is amazing. I'm so into my thicker body. I also love being curvier. It's just channeling that queen energy and embracing the woman that I am," she adds.
You tell 'em, Kourtney! We love to see it!
