Kourtney Kardashian has come under fire after sharing snaps of her Halloween decorations as parents dubbed them “disgusting”.
The Hulu star and mom-of-four has made it no secret over the years that she loves grand decorations for all the major holidays. In episodes of The Kardashians – and on her family’s old show Keeping Up With the Kardashians – Kourtney has previously been seen vigorously planning out how she can make her Halloween and Christmas decorations unique as a new year rolls around.
However while fans are usually impressed by the Lemme owner’s extravagant spooky set ups, this year many have been left disappointed by her “embarrassing” display.
On October 22, Kourtney shared she had “dinner with my besties” and set up her dining room table with dark candles, skeletons and cobweb decorations. Prior to this, she shared snaps of her garden displays – including a grand staircase filled with pumpkins and two inflatable skeletons straddling each other on her lawn.
“Hello October,” Kourtney captioned the carousel of photographs on her Instagram page, which garnered mixed reactions from fans. One individual said: “As a mother of four kids, I find it disgusting you would do that to those inflatables.”
Another added: “You have children and you think the skeletons positions is appropriate. Ugh tacky.” “Just disgusting,” said another. “Feel sorry for your kids,” commented one other user.
“Do you have to sexualise everything?” questioned one other. One other added: “Do you forget youre a mother? Your poor children.”
But others rushed to Kourtney’s defence. One individual wrote: “Who cares about the plastic skeleton. Kids see more disturbing commercials on TV than the positions of the skeletons. Who cares – her house, her skeletons, her position I think.”
Another added: “I love seeing how incredibly offended so many people are over the skeletons. The skeletons are awesome and hilarious!”
Another individual jumped to Kourtney’s defence, and said: “Love it. Why is everyone so up in arms over the skeletons? I think the houses depicting skeletons hanging is more vulgar. Relax. Also their house, their choice how to decorate.”
One other pointed out: “Not y’all walking around with panties on for Halloween costumes but mad about two blow up skeletons sitting on each other.”
Despite the backlash, Kourtney has recently been following Travis on tour and spent some time away in the countryside. This will also be Kourtney’s first Halloween with her son Rocky Thirteen – who is now 10 months old – whom she welcomed in November 2023 with her husband and Blink 182 star Travis Barker. Kourtney is also a mother to 14-year-old Mason, nine-year-old Reign, and 12-year-old Penelope. She is also the step-mother to Travis’ children Landon, Alabama and Atiana.
The reality TV star will be back on our screens for another season of The Kardashians soon. The sixth season of the show is expected to be released on Disney+ or Hulu in late 2024 or early 2025. The show is still being filmed, so it could be a while before it’s available.
