Kourtney Kardashian praised for unedited bikini photo

The Kardashians are known for using photoshop, but Kourtney Kardashian has uploaded a candid bikini picture sans editing and fans are loving it.

Kourtney Kardashian has been celebrated for uploading an unedited bikini photo.

In an image shared to her lifestyle page Poosh’s Instagram, the 42-year-old flashed the (albeit, minimal) cellulite on her backside as she walked away from the camera in a thong bikini and strappy red heels.

The mother-of-three was praised for the picture amid the furore over the Kardashian family’s use of photoshop on their images, which was sparked by a leaked photo of Khloe Kardashian earlier this year.

Kourtney enjoyed the July 4 weekend.

Poosh’s caption advertised an interview with Kourtney’s trainer Jesse O’Hara for at-home pilates moves “for a rounder rear” just like the mum of three’s.

Commenters sent their praise and even gratitude for Kardashian’s realness.

“OK finally an unedited Kardashian”, one comment read, with another following in the same sentiment, “I love that the little dimples were kept! It’s so natural and so beautiful”.

Kourtney certainly is not shy sharing bikini pictures, regularly posting snaps to her Instagram page of her enviable figure.

The account responded to one fan who said “way to empower the natural women body!!” with, “every body is beautiful”.

The eldest Kardashian sister is known to get real about her stretch marks, telling a fan she “loves [her] little stripes” in response to a past swimwear photo and providing tips on how to minimise their appearance.

Kourtney previously uploaded this picture writing, "love my little stripes".
