KUWTK: The Story Behind Kylie Jenner’s Leg Scar That Fans Are Questioning

After Kylie Jenner from Keeping Up With The Kardashians showed off a little thigh in her latest Instagram post, many of her fans started asking questions about the large scar on her leg.

Kylie emerged from big sister Kim’s shadow long ago, making a name for herself outside of her family’s reality show. As the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, Kylie has always had a lot to prove. By the time she was 17, she was already a self-made beauty mogul and the CEO of a multi-million dollar brand. Despite having her “self-made billionaire” title snatched away by Forbes. Kylie Jenner is still the highest-paid celebrity, according to Forbes, and has been for two years in a row.

Amid all the recent divorce rumors surrounding her older sister Kim Kardashian, Kylie decided to take some of the heat off her big sis by sharing a steamy Kylie Jenner Instagram pic on Wednesday. The only problem was that many of her followers flooded her comments with remarks about her sister’s alleged breakup. Others complimented the Kylie Cosmetics founder on her beauty. However, there were some who questioned the scar on the back of her left thigh. “What’s the scar on her leg,” one fan asked, while another wondered, “How did you get that scar?” Another follower added, “What happened to your leg?” There were some fans who attempted to respond to the questions with their own versions of what led to Kylie’s leg scar. She actually showcased the scar back in 2018, when she showed it off while posing on the cover of GQ, alongside on-and-off boyfriend Travis Scott.

The Life of Kylie star first revealed the history behind the scar in a 2011 Q&A, as noted by Us Weekly. It happened while playing a childhood game of hide-and-seek with her sister Kendall Jenner. “When I was about 5, my sister and I were playing hide-and-seek and I hid inside this really tall enclosed gate,” Jenner told Celebuzz, according to US Weekly. She added, “After a while when my sister didn’t find me I had to climb up on this sharp pole sticking out from the gate. I slipped and the pole went into my leg. I tried pulling away to get the pole out but it just tore through my whole leg. It’s smaller now though because I grew!”

Yikes! That sounds painful and she still has the scar to prove it. In 2015, she embraced the scar in a glam shot she shared on Instagram. “I love my scar,” she captioned a pic of her sitting in a makeup chair with her legs up in the air. Fans can always count on Kylie from KUWTK loving herself.
