Kylie Jenner is back at her pre-baby weight — and she didn’t use Ozempic to get there.
The reality star addressed online speculation that she is “on drugs” in her September cover story for British Vogue , published Tuesday.
“I’m back at my weight I was before I had my daughter and son and people are putting side by sides of me three months postpartum,” the makeup mogul, 27, said.
In response to semaglutide rumors, she asked, “Does everyone forget that I had two children and I gained 60 pounds both pregnancies?”
The “Kardashians” star noted that she hasn’t received “enough empathy” since welcoming daughter Stormi, 6, and son Aire , 2, in 2018 and 2022, respectively.
“I was 200 pounds when I gave birth to my 9 pound babies: 8.3 and 8.9,” she told the magazine. “I finally lost all the baby weight after my daughter and then got pregnant with my son two months later. And I felt in shape and it was working out, and then I got pregnant and did it all over again.”
“I try to be kind to myself as my body finds a new normal,” the Poosh creator, 45, wrote via Instagram. “The pressure put on us to bounce back when everything is new and different isn’t realistic.”
Jenner told the magazine that she credits motherhood with teaching her not to need “validation from other sources.”
She explained, “I come home and my kids just love me unconditionally. They’re just obsessed with me and that’s taught me to walk through life a little easier.”
The Khy designer continued, “I’m like, ‘OK, well I have these little humans at home that need me and love me and think I’m the most perfect person in the world.'”
