As seen in the pictures, the social media influencer enjoyed a relaxing experience with her lover. She flaunts her baby bump, visits the beach, and satisfies her appetite with a variety of delicacies. A recurring theme in the slideshow is the ocean, which the 44-year-old claims has a unique effect on him.
“The ocean calms the fire in me,” wrote the soon-to-be mother of four. As noted, the reality TV star’s words didn’t sit well with her followers, given the tragic wildfires in Hawaii.
Many slammed the founder of health brand Lemme for being “insensitive”, criticizing her caption as an unpleasant thing to announce amid the suffering on Maui. One fan argued: “Maybe it’s not the best time to say the ocean calms the fire – when people in Hawaii have to go into the ocean because of the fire.”
“So insensitive to the people in Maui,” quipped another, with a third echoing similar sentiments, writing: “Um, kinda insensitive since what happened in Hawaii.” More people slammed Kardashian’s caption with one calling it a “bad choice of words.”
“Bad time for a terrible caption,” said one fan, with a disgruntled fellow follower agreeing it was a “gross Caption.” A third person wailed: “That’s a very inappropriate caption, huh.” While the majority hated the TV personality’s words, others tried to educate the 44-year-old.
Painting a terrifying picture of what happened on Maui during the fire, one resident claimed an expectant mother would never be able to comprehend the calming effects of the ocean until she experienced such a tragedy.
“My whole town is on fire, and it’s like people who have the ability to help just pretend they don’t know what’s going on #lahaina,” lamented the individual. The second shared the same impression of the socialite, noting her lack of empathy.
“I wonder if you guys have ever thought about the people of Maui? You seem very insensitive,” said the social media user. “Do we really care about your baby bump when the people of Maui are suffering? Really??”
A third echoed: “You will never know fire if it swallows you up.” Despite the criticism, not everyone attacked Kardashian’s caption, as some pleaded with the entertainer to help those in need. “Speaking of fire – please use your platform to help Maui @mauistrongfund.”
