But eagle-eyed followers noticed that one particular picture vanished shortly after it went live, sparking rampant speculation in the comments.
The now-deleted shot showed Kim soaking up the rays in a lilac bikini at the edge of a wooden boat, striking a pose that highlighted her famous curves.
She captioned the post: 'Lake 2025.'
Other pictures saw her children Saint, Chicago and Psalm enjoy boat trips out to sea and playing with sparklers.
While the rest of the gallery remained intact, fans believe the missing photo was pulled due to a photoshop blunder.
Some claimed Kim forgot to adjust her proportions, leaving her bum looking bigger than usual compared to her cinched waist.
One commented: 'Not enough photoshop," while another added: "She forgot to make her bum smaller!'
A third said: 'She looks hippy here. Nothing wrong with that,' while a fourth pointed out: 'She has a crazy expression on her face!'
It's not the first time this year she's been accused of a Photoshop fail.
Back in May, fans spotted a clue that she had edited her body in some social media shots.
Kim Kardashian mocked for 'drunk' Balenciaga runway walk as fans ask 'what is she doing?'
Taking to Instagram to share a slew of sizzling snaps, Kim looked amazing as she donned a tiny silver string bikini.
Posing up a storm in a series of mirror selfies and other snaps, Kim could be seen putting her svelte curves on display for all to see.
In the caption, the TV personality declared it "spring break", while many fans swooned over her appearance.
"Most envied woman on earth," penned one.
"Still sexy as hell," swooned a second.
While a third added: "Sweeter than honey hotter than fire."
But not everybody was complimentary.
Some fans on Reddit were quick to critique the SKIMS founder.
PHOTOSHOP FAIL?
In a thread dedicated to the Kardashian family, one person shared Kim's new snaps and said: "Why is her bra strap always so tight?"
They then noted: "She's made a permanent dent there."
One fan weighed in and said: "Because she's wearing a size small top when she should probably be wearing a medium, cup size looks too small."
But another fan pointed out something suspicious.
"Kim's torso is not that long," they said.
To which someone replied: "Or thin. It's clearly been Photoshopped to hell and back."
And another penned: "Also like Kim's waist is not as small as she claims."

Check out the viral pics the stars DID NOT want you to see - and wish could be erased from the Internet forever
One of the downsides to living in the spotlight as a celebrity is that your every move can be seen 24 hours a day. However, even moments of downtime were still fair play for photographers and fans to capture and share with the world - even when the stars were not looking their best. That's been the case for a plethora of famous faces, including Ben Affleck and Beyonce, who risked being turned into a meme for a seemingly innocent move - but who else had been affected and wished for the evidence to be eternally scrubbed? SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO KIM KARDASHIAN Kim Kardashian was mortified after what she viewed as 'unflattering' photos of her butt emerged in 2017. A sunshine break on the Mexican coast turned into a holiday from hell for the star when she expressed her shock over the images. The pic showed her in black thong bikini bottoms and a tie-front vest. The mom-of-four was less than impressed with the subsequent images and reacted to the shot on an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Kim said: 'Oh my god! I don't get it. I literally don't look like this. I need to untag myself in everything. I'm literally going to go inside and just start untagging.' ARIANA GRANDE She's been accused of appropriating black culture with her music and image in the past, and Ariana Grande inadvertently sparked another debate in 2021 when she shared a series of promo pics on social media. The controversy being that she was said to have been 'Asian fishing' - a term used to describe someone of non-Asian descent who attempted to adopt an Asian aesthetic. The star's otherwise innocent photos gained attention for all the wrong reasons when fans noted her unusually straight brows, thin-winged eyeliner, no-eyelid make-up, and notably lighter shade of foundation. Even the demure pose she adopted for the shoot came under fire, Ariana was criticized on social media for 'promoting stereotypes' and 'fetishizing' Asian culture. Subsequently, the images were swiftly removed from her Instagram account - but the Internet never forgets. BEN AFFLECK Seen as a reluctant celebrity, images of Ben Affleck's been turned into a meme more times than he would probably care to remember. It's been years since he was forced to respond to his viral notoriety following a grim-faced appearance at the 2023 Grammy Awards with then-wife Jennifer Lopez. However, that wasn't the actor's first time his image had gone viral. In 2016, cameras caught Ben looking rather dejected as he paused for a smoke break on a day out in LA with his daughter Violet. He stopped and stood with one hand in his jeans pocket with his eyes closed in weary contemplation, as he made the most of his time alone. Unfortunately for him, the image - notoriously dubbed 'sad Ben Affleck' - went viral and was used worldwide. KHLOE KARDASHIAN We've all had them, the occasional bad hair day, but not many of us have had pics of such unexpected moments splashed all over the Internet. Khloe Kardashian's one of the unfortunate few who had such an unflattering photo in 2011 on a shopping trip in Dallas when blustery weather worked against her as she made her way back to her car - to the benefit of trailing photographers. KHLOE KARDASHIAN (AGAIN) In 2021, a leaked photo of Khloe began circulating online. Highly unflattering, the unfiltered and unretouched image showed her minus make-up as she modelled in leopard-print swimwear. That might seem innocent, but it later transpired that Khloe and her media-savvy family were desperate to wipe all traces of it - and with good reason. The candid photo - shared without her consent - was damning evidence as to the extent she carefully manipulated her photos before releasing them on social media. The distraught star addressed the drama on Instagram days later, and shared live videos of herself to prove that her body was not regularly 'Photoshopped'. Her subsequent statement spoke about the pressure of being in the spotlight and her body being 'micro-analyzed' as a public figure. She also revealed that being compared to her siblings Kim and Kourtney in addition to 'constant ridicule and judgement' had been 'too much to bear'. JENNIFER ANISTON In a world increasingly opposed to lighting up, it's no surprise that Jennifer Aniston chose to keep her off-screen smoking status a closely guarded secret. However, in 2022, the actress - known for her wholesome, health-conscious public image - was filmed by her former husband Justin Theroux as he lit her cigarette. Not a huge issue, you'd think, but Aniston had claimed to have given up the habit following a previous confession about her being a 'chain-smoker' who could easily get through a pack a day during the early years of her career. Fans took the admission literally, and many believed she had stopped with the cigarettes in 2007 - three years after she'd filmed her final Friends scenes. Unfortunately for her, the damning 'smoking gun' video proved otherwise, and it was swiftly deleted from Justin's Instagram page - but it's still to be found elsewhere. BEYONCE Performing at Super Bowl in 2013, Beyonce sang and danced to thousands of gathered spectators and millions of TV viewers around the world during her halftime show at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. But she was less than impressed with some of the photos that emerged following her energetic performance at the 83,000 capacity venue. In fact, she was forced to confront online outlet Buzzfeed for its publishing of pics with the star in full flow with matted hair, strained sinews, and a sweaty complexion. Beyonce's dismay led to her publicist emailing the site directly with a request for the offending snaps to be taken down - which Buzzfeed refused. The site reacted to the demand with a follow-up article called The Unflattering Photos Beyonce's Publicist Doesn't Want You To See. LANA DEL REY Lana Del Rey would be forgiven for regretting her decision to pose beside a barbed-wire fence right outside Cook County Department of Corrections in 2022. The singer was pictured with her arm around her musician ex Jack Donoghue with the Chicago penitentiary looming behind them. Rumored to have been romantically linked to Jack of the band Salem, Lana seemed to confirm their romance when the image emerged on his Instagram platform, where it was shared alongside the caption: 'Family visit.' Jack previously sparked controversy by sharing a photo of himself licking his pet dog's tongue, and he was also seen in a pic that appeared to capture him during a passionate kiss with a male cousin. Lana wised up and married swamp tour guide Jeremy Dufrene in September 2024.

And here are the ones they DIDN'T want you to see! From hellish holiday snaps to bad hair days and secret smokers - all the photos celebs wish could be banished from the Internet
There are pros and cons to everything in life. But when it comes to fame, one could argue that it's difficult to see beyond the inevitable riches, the red carpets, the screaming fans and the beautiful, boundless homes of Beverly Hills and beyond. However, there are definite downsides to a life spent living in the spotlight, and many a celebrity will happily tell you that the red carpet doesn't roll 24 hours a day, the screaming fans soon grow tiresome, and the camera can be your greatest friend - and worst enemy. Indeed, even the most famous of celebrities require a bit of downtime, a fleeting moment of respite away from the blinding flash of camera bulbs, the harsh glare of stage lights and the perpetual need to always look one's best. So perhaps they could be forgiven for feeling aggrieved when those rare moments of normality are undermined by randomly taken photos - particularly when said photos are unexpected, unflattering and, even worse, uncomfortably accessible on the Internet. It's an awkward conundrum, and everyone from Ben Affleck to Beyoncé has risked being turned into an online meme as a result. But who else has been affected? KIM KARDASHIAN Sometimes being rich and famous really is a bum deal - just ask Kim Kardashian, who was left mortified after what she considered to be unflattering photos of her emerged in 2017. Indeed, a sunshine break on the Mexican coast turned into a holiday from hell for the mother-of-four after she expressed her shock over the images. Dressed in a black thong bikini, the image-conscious Kardashian, 44 - arguably one of the most photographed women on the planet - was pictured relaxing by the pool. But the woman who once 'broke the internet' was less than impressed with the images that subsequently emerged. Reacting to the photos on her E! Keeping Up With The Kardashians show, she wailed: 'Oh my god! I don't get it. I literally don't look like this. 'I need to untag myself in everything. I'm literally going to go inside and just start untagging.' ARIANA GRANDE Having already been accused of appropriating black culture with her music and image, Ariana Grande inadvertantly sparked another debate in 2021 after sharing a series of promotional photos across social media. What's the problem, you might say? Well, in a perfect world, nothing, but as we all know, the world is far from perfect. Unimpressed followers were quick to accuse the singer of 'Asian fishing' - a term typically used to describe someone of non-Asian descent who attempts to adopt an Asian aesthetic. It somehow stuck - and Grande's otherwise innocent photos gained attention for all the wrong reasons after fans noted her unusually straight brows, thin-winged eyeliner, no-eyelid makeup and notably lighter shade of foundation. Even the demure, virginal pose she adopted for the shoot came under fire, with the American star attacked by social media users for 'promoting stereotypes' and 'festishing' Asian culture. Subsequently, the images were swiftly removed from her Instagram platform - but sadly from Grande, the Internet never forgets. BEN AFFLECK If ever there was a reluctant celebrity, it would be Ben Affleck. And who could blame him? The Oscar-winning star has been turned into an online meme more times than he would probably care to remember, and with good reason. It would be seven years before Affleck was forced to respond to the viral notoriety he earned through a grim-faced appearance at the 2023 Grammy Awards with then-wife Jennifer Lopez. On that occasion lightning would strike for a second time, but it wasn't the actor's first rodeo as an online meme. In 2016, cameras caught the actor looking rather dejected as he paused for a smoke break while out in Los Angeles with his daughter, Violet. Dressed in a plain blue sweater and jeans, the beleaguered Affleck stood with one hand buried in a front pocket, his eyes closed in weary contemplation as he made the most of his time alone. Unfortunately for him, the image - notoriously dubbed 'sad Ben Affleck' - became a viral meme before the dust had even settled on those famous images of the grim-faced star at the Grammys, evidently wishing the earth would swallow him whole while sat alongside his enthusiastic wife. KHLOE KARDASHIAN We've all suffered the occasional bad hair day, but not many of us have had them splashed all over the Internet. Khloé Kardashian is one of the unfortunate few who has, as a rather unflattering photo from 2011 can attest. Then married to basketball player Lamar Odom, the TV personality was shopping in Dallas when blustery weather worked against her - much to the benefit of trailing photographers. Pictures capture the moment an unforgiving gust of wind destroyed her carefully coiffed hair as she made her way back to her car. KHLOE KARDASHIAN (AGAIN) It all began in 2021, when a leaked photo of Kardashian began circulating online. Unfiltered and definitely un-Photoshopped, the image pictured the American TV personality without makeup and modelling a leopard print swimsuit while posing beside an outdoor pool. All very innocent, one might say, but not quite, when it later transpired that Kardashian and her media-savvy family were desperate to wipe all traces of it from the web, and with good reason. For many, the candid photo - shared without her consent - was damning evidence that she carefully manipulates her photos before releasing them across social media. A distraught Kardashian addressed the drama on Instagram days later, as she shared live videos of herself to prove that her body 'isn't photoshopped.' Subsequently she issued a lengthy statement where she spoke about the pressure of being in the spotlight and her body being 'micro-analyzed' as a public figure. The star also revealed that being compared to her siblings, Kim and Kourtney, in addition to 'constant ridicule and judgement' had been 'too much to bear.' An excerpt from her message read: 'As someone who has struggled with body image her whole life, when someone takes a photo of you that isn't flattering in bad lighting or doesn't capture your body the way it is after working so hard... 'You should have every right to ask for it to not be shared, regardless of who you are. She continued: 'My body, my image and how I choose to look and what I want to share is my choice. 'It's not for anyone to decide or judge what is acceptable or not anymore,' also adding that she likes a good filter, good lighting and an edit here and there. JENNIFER ANISTON God only knows what clean-living Ross Chandler would've thought if Rachel Green was a smoker. For most people it's a deal breaker, and in a world increasingly opposed to lighting up it's no surprise that Jennifer Aniston chose to keep her off-screen smoking status a closely guarded secret. But in 2022, the Friends star - better known for her wholesome, health-conscious public image - was filmed having her cigarette lit by former husband Justin Theroux. Ordinarily not an issue, but Aniston had claimed to have given up the habit after previously confessing to being a 'chain-smoker' who tore through a pack a day during the early years of her career. Fans took the admission literally, with may believing she had stopped smoking in 2007 - three years after filming her final scenes on Friends. Unfortunately for Aniston, the damning video proved. otherwise, and it was swiftly deleted from Theroux's Instagram platform. BEYONCE It doesn't get much bigger than the Super Bowl. Just ask Beyoncé, who performed for thousands of gathered spectators and millions of TV viewers during the sporting spectacle's 2013 halftime show at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. But 'Queen Bey' was less than impressed with some of the photos that subsequently emerged following her energetic performance at the 83,000 capacity venue. Indeed, matted hair, strained sinews and sweaty complexions are never a good look, but it was an unholy trinity she was forced to confront courtesy of online outlet Buzzfeed. Beyoncé's dismay led to her publicist emailing the site directly with a request for the offending photos to be taken down Sadly for the R&B legend and her team, Buzzfeed refused. Worse, they reacted by writing a follow-up article titled: 'The 'Unflattering' Photos Beyoncé's Publicist Doesn't Want You To See.' Ouch. 'Hey Lana, get over here and pose for a photo next to this barbed wire fence!' It probably didn't play out that way, but Lana Del Rey would be forgiven for regretting her decision to pose for a snap outside Cook County Department of Corrections in 2022. The singer, whose plaintive songs about love, sex and relationships have made her a global star, was pictured arm-in-arm with musician Jack Donoghue next to a barbed wire fence surrounding the Chicago penitentiary. Already romantically linked to Donoghue, a founding member of the band Salem, Del Rey appeared to confirm their romance in the shot following its emergence on his Instagram platform, where it was shared alongside the caption: 'Family visit.' All well and good, but Donaghue had previously sparked controversy by sharing a photo of himself licking his pet dog's tongue. Additionally, the musician was also the subject of photos that appear to capture him passionately kissing his first cousin on the lips. Del Rey is is now married to Jeremy Dufrene, a swamp tour guide from Louisiana.

Kim Kardashian is ready to squeeze your face
If you've got $48 and a burning desire to look like you've just had major jaw surgery, then you're in luck! Kim Kardashian's shapewear brand Skims has just come out with a contraption called the Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap, which it describes as its 'first-ever face innovation'. It's essentially a piece of Velcro that goes around your face to provide what the marketing copy describes as 'targeted compression for shaping & sculpting' via 'collagen yarn'. No, I don't know what that means either. While I may be a tad unclear on how 'collagen yarn' is supposed to work, I can tell you exactly how the Kardashian-Jenners operate: if there's an insecurity that can be monetized, they'll find a way to monetize it. Over the years the reality-TV-famous family have built an empire flogging everything from dubious detox teas to skincare products while posting heavily edited images that reinforce toxic beauty standards. The new face wrap appears to be an attempt to cash in on growing interest around what has been dubbed a 'snatched jawline' – which is essentially a very chiselled jaw. A number of dubious products, including jaw massagers and 'mastic chewing gum', have popped up, promising to help you achieve this look. Now Skims has come out with its own exciting face innovation to get into the action. The medical-looking Face Wrap also seems to play into the way in which plastic surgery has become normalized. Celebrities used to be fairly hush-hush about going under the knife. Now they're spilling all the details about which doctor they went to for their procedures and how much it cost. One surgeon told People magazine that the public is starting to see plastic surgery as just 'another form of self-care'. While Skims' new face wrap may scream 'useless gimmick that promotes unhealthy beauty ideals', it has already sold out and generated one unusual celebrity endorsement. In an Instagram video posted on Thursday Anthony Hopkins sported one of the Skims masks and jokingly slipped back into his Silence of the Lambs character, 'the late, great Hannibal Lecter', who wore a similar chinstrap in the film to curb his cannibalism. 'Hello Kim, I'm already feeling 10 years younger,' Hopkins says. In a caption he added: 'Don't be afraid to come over for dinner.' Also chiming in on all the Skims chatter is Katie Piper, a model and TV presenter who was the victim of an acid attack in 2008 orchestrated by her ex-boyfriend. In a TikTok posted on Friday Piper said that the Kardashians' 'latest offering' reminded of her what she had to wear during her burn survivor recovery. 'Please, people, don't imprison your face in this contraption,' Piper says. 'Don't be so cruel and unkind to your face … to encase it in a stupid strap that, by the way, does absolutely nothing.' Amen to that. While it may be obvious, it's worth reiterating that the Kardashians and other celebrities don't look the way that they do because they strap medieval-looking torture devices around their faces while they sleep. Rather they shell out for expensive procedures like $100,000 deep plane facelifts and $500,000 facial rejuvenations. In 2023 Sharon Osbourne told the Telegraph that while she hadn't kept a running total of how much she had spent on cosmetic surgery, 'it must top more than a million.' You can buy whatever sort of body you desire these days – it'll just cost you an arm and a leg. The Republican state representative Giovanni Capriglione played an instrumental part in ensuring Texas has some of the most restrictive abortion laws in the US. Now a former adult entertainer called Alex Grace has claimed that she was romantically involved with Capriglione – who is married with kids – for almost two decades and he 'funded several abortions for his own personal gain'. (There are some other extremely disgusting allegations involving cookie batter that I won't repeat.) Capriglione has admitted to having an affair but says the rest of the story is lies. While I can't confirm this particular case, there are plenty of other documented instances of anti-abortion extremists funding abortions for their mistresses. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has been banging on about how Jeffrey Epstein 'stole' Virginia Giuffre and other young female staffers, who he hired from the president's Mar-a-Lago country club. Isn't it lovely that the men who seem to consider themselves masters of the universe all seem to believe women are their personal property? Perhaps the pair of them will collaborate on a new venture. Sarah Shafi said she didn't want the new series to be aired following allegations against the presenters Gregg Wallace and John Torode. Instead the BBC edited her out of it. 'I didn't say edit me out,' Shafi said. 'I said: 'Axe the show … Prominent figures have been abusing their power. What message does that send out to women?' After telling us all she was going to put the 'ass' in astronaut, Perry seems to be sharing the same orbit as the former Canadian prime minister. Hollie Richardson does a deep dive into the sudden explosion of steamy scenes in costume dramas. Pikachu is a cute little Pokémon species and, according to a newly surfaced interview, it almost got given feminine breasts for the American market in order to appeal to the sort of people who like to sexualize animated characters. A 'worst-case scenario' human-made famine is now unfolding in Gaza – and the US continues to facilitate Israel's genocide. Liberal National party MP Terry Young has spoken out against a push for gender quotas by saying that men and women are drawn to different careers. Men like maths and physical exertion, according to Young, while women like styling hair and caring for others. '[I]t's 2025,' the infrastructure minister, Catherine King, said in response. Your gender never means a job is off limits.' Let's head to Florida now, where police recently arrested a Chuck E Cheese mascot for credit card fraud. 'Chuck E, come with me,' an officer said as they led the large mouse away in handcuffs in front of horrified children. It's not clear if a mugshot is available but one imagines police photographers asked the rodent to say 'cheese'.
