Kim Kardashian's 'Two Thumbs' Christmas Postcard With Daughter North Is Trending

Kim Kardashian and her family recently hosted their annual holiday bash and shared glimpses on Instagram. Kim posted photos with her four children, including North. However, a photo featuring Kim and North stirred discussion due to a potential photoshop concern. Internet users noticed what seemed to be an extra thumb on Kim’s hand. While some criticised the alleged editing error, others suggested it could be a perspective illusion from hand positioning. Despite online speculation, Kim hasn’t publicly addressed the claims, and this isn’t the first time she has faced scrutiny for photo editing.

As Kim Kardashian showcased her stunning gown in Christmas Eve photos, a picture triggered discussions about a potential Photoshop mishap. Observant fans noticed what appeared to be two thumbs on one of Kim’s hands while posing with North. On a Kardashian Reddit thread, users expressed confusion and alleged that Kim’s team was actively deleting comments about the thumb on Instagram. One user commented, “Kim and her team are removing the ‘why do you have two thumbs on one hand’ comments in real time, and I’m here for it. What a KLOWN.”

Reacting to the post, a user wondered, “Is this a Photoshop fail?” while another suggested, “It’s a ploy to get people to engage with her content.”

Meanwhile, some users defended Kim Kardashian and claimed, “Kim is using both her hands to hold North’s hand. That’s why you see 2 thumbs,” another shared, “I Think maybe it’s her other hand. Seems like she’s holding Stormie’s hand in both of hers.”

In April, fans accused the Kardashians star of badly editing a mirror selfie after observing that her middle finger was missing in the photo. Later, her followers came across another edit on Getty Images captured in June at the Louis Vuitton Fashion Show. Analysing the original image, fans compared changes made by Kim before posting the picture online. Most recently, in August 2022, the reality star faced criticism for removing her muscle in another photo edit.

Before Kim Kardashian’s incident, Prince William and Kate Middleton’s 2023 holiday card featuring their three children garnered attention for a similar reason. Social media users saw a missing middle finger on the hand of their youngest son, Prince Louis. However, few users reassured that it wasn’t an actual missing finger but rather an optical illusion as the young prince had bent one finger against the chair.
