Earlier this month, Kourtney subtly responded to criticism on social media for choosing not to reveal her youngest son’s face.
In a photo shared on Instagram, commentators questioned the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s decision after she overlaid Rocky’s face with a jack-o-lantern emoji to protect his privacy.
One user wrote, “Everyone knows what he looks like so why hide his face?”, while another added, “How weird would he post a picture of just him and hide his face…don’t post it at all. Really stupid.”
Another social media user replied, “By the way, this shows you care,” and while Kourtney didn’t directly respond to the comment, she did “like” the user’s response in solidarity.
Other Instagram users also defended the mother of four. One person wrote: “Just because the paparazzi don’t respect your parents’ wishes and won’t show their faces doesn’t mean you have to be bullied into posting them. That’s what they want.”
