LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The drama between the Kardashians escalated on Kim Kardashian's 43rd birthday. In her stories, Kourtney Kardashian posted throwback images of herself with her sister Kim, apparently taking a sly jibe at Kim as she wished her happy birthday.
This social media snub, however, was not an isolated incident but rather the latest skirmish in a long-standing sibling rivalry. The infamous feud between Kourtney and Kim was recently thrust into the spotlight on their Hulu show, with an intense phone call from the fourth season.
In that episode, Kourtney accused Kim of being "egotistical" and not being able to stand others grabbing the limelight, even referring to her as a "f**king witch."
Kourtney Kardashian skips Kim Kardashian's 43rd birthday bash
The drama unfolded on Kim's 43rd birthday when she threw a star-studded bash attended by family and friends, with one notable absence—Kourtney.
Kourtney took to Instagram to playfully mock Kim, insinuating that their on-screen brawls were child's play compared to their high school skirmishes.
She made a series of cheeky posts that seemed to further fuel the fire as she wished her sister on her birthday, with one image of the images branding Kim, the fashion icon, a "clown."
Posting a picture of the two together, she wrote, "Happy happy birthday to my first sister @kimkardashian ! Thank you for all those years of bossing you around and you actually listening to all of my crazy ideas."
She added, taking a sly jibe, "People think the fights they've seen on tv are bad. If only they got to witness the hair pulling, nail digging ones from early high school. The joys of sisterhood."
She concluded, "I love you deeply forever and always. May God bless this year with love and happiness and abundant joy." The wishes were cryptic, with some sentences seeming to drip with sarcasm.
While it's no secret that Kourtney is currently expecting, her absence at Kim's celebration raised eyebrows and fueled speculation that their ongoing discord played a role in her decision to skip the bash.
The feud between Kim and Kourtney ignited in Season 3 of 'The Kardashians' and even after one season, it shows no signs of cooling down.
The root of the trouble was Kim's decision to collaborate with Dolce & Gabbana for a '90s-inspired collection, a move that came mere months after Kourtney had partnered with the brand for her wedding to Travis Barker.
The clash between the two sisters over the brand deal has only intensified their longstanding feud, keeping fans of the show glued to their screens as they watch this sibling rivalry unfold.
Kourtney Kardashian calls Kim Kardashian 'f***ing witch'
In the tumultuous world of the Kardashians, the never-ending skirmishes and quarrels between siblings Kim and Kourtney have become something of a legend. However, in their upcoming season on Hulu, these sisterly squabbles appear to have reached an all-time high.
During a heated phone call that was captured in Season 4 of their Hulu show, things took a bitter turn. Kourtney, not mincing words, lashed out at Kim, accusing her of harboring a selfish, egotistical mindset.
She alleged, "You cannot stand someone else being the center of attention." Kourtney went on to bring up Kim's behavior at her wedding, stating, "You came to my wedding. You couldn’t be happy. You complained from the second you got there 'til the second you left."
In her eyes, the root of their discord was clear – Kim's jealousy of Kourtney's moments in the spotlight.
Kim, however, wasn't one to back down. She defended her stance, insisting that Kourtney's attitude was not an isolated issue. According to Kim, Kourtney's kids and friends had similar complaints.
In a tense exchange, Kourtney retaliated, "It’s like you’re just a f**king witch, and I hate you." Kourtney didn't hold back further and accused her sister Kim of being a narcissist. She boldly stated that her own life is consistently happier when Kim is not in the picture.
