Kim Kardashian-West re-shares body shaming comment on social media

Kim Kardashian-West responded to a social media troll who directed a 'body shaming' comment at her in a surprisingly nonchalant fashion.

During the screening of her reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians in the US, Kim engaged in a Twitter discussion with fans.

One of the scenes showed Kim enjoying a meal in New Orleans before flying to Paris to eat some cheesecake.

After tweeting “Of course I had to fly to Paris for fashion and foooood!!!”, one Twitter user responded calling her a “fat bitch” and said all the 35-year-old thinks about is food.

This led Kim to re-tweet the post to her 37 million followers alongside the message: “Yup!”.

Kim, who is pregnant with her second child and has a two-year-old daughter North with husband Kanye West, previously shut down body-shaming and constant speculation over her pregnancy with a nude Instagram picture.

Alongside the image she wrote: “First they say I'm too skinny so I have to be faking it...Now they say I'm too big so I have to be faking it...SMH! Some days I'm photographed before I eat and look smaller, some days I've just eaten and I look bigger.”

In August, the television personality told C Magazine the criticism she received over her body during her first pregnancy “changed” her and hit back at those who “called me fat for something I couldn’t control”.
