Jenner has previously spoken about having body image issues.The Kardashian sibling, model and reality television star revealed that many people speculate about her physical size.
"I'm constantly criticised for being too skinny. I'm trying to gain weight but my body won't let it happen," Jenner told Harper's Bazaar. "What people don't understand is that calling someone too skinny is the same as calling someone too fat, it's not a nice feeling."
Although Jenner has appeared on the reality television show for years, she admits that being in the spotlight is not always an easy task.
"We appreciate everything that we have, but we don't remember what it's like to be normal kids who aren't harassed by the paparazzi. I hate that," she previously revealed to Glamour. "..I don't want to be followed by random men I don't know. It can also be hard to deal with other kids who are jealous or mean. I can't post a picture on Instagram without being criticized."
