Kim Kardashian was caught editing her friend's body

Fans are accusing Kim Kardashian of editing not only her own body, but a friend's in a recent Instagram post.

Kim posed with Zoe Winkler Reinis, the co-founder of This Is About Humanity, for a charitable night. While the socialite is known for editing her own body, this time she include Zoe's in the mix as well. Since Kim pulled the post from a Getty photographer, fans were able to find the original photo and compare it to the version she posted it. Zoe's figure appeared to be noticeably different in the photo as did Kim's nose.

Taking to Reddit, a fan shared the side-by-side snaps. They titled the thread: "This is beyond messed up."

Fans tried to grapple and reason with why she may do something like this to a good friend. With one theory, they argued that it may not have been intentional and that her friend was just "collateral damage". They noticed that Kim's hips were extended to appear wider which may have caused Zoe's waistline to shrink. That theory was debunked though when fans noticed that Zoe's neck was also smaller and her chin tucked in a bit more.

A fan wrote: "It's interesting to see what she focuses on and what she doesn't. I'd have new insecurities if I was her friend, though, I don't even understand the neck edit."

Another did try to defend Kim with some context. They said: "Thats one of her closest friends so I’m ngl I would assume she asked her if she wanted any edits and the friend said yeah make my stomach more flattering."

Some people agreed in the comments. The general consensus is that it was normal to edit photos and check with your friends for approval before posting. So, that may have been what Kim did, but no one knows for sure.
