Kim Kardashian reminded her fans she has only one thumb on each hand after a social media controversy about her digits.
Earlier this week, she found herself accused of a ‘pH๏τoshop fail’ on account of one of her family pH๏τos from the festive season.
The picture in question showed Kim and her eldest daughter North, 10, posing in front of the tree at the family’s annual Christmas Eve party.
Fans quickly fired up their social media and noted that the image made it look as though Kim had an extra thumb – igniting a debate about whether the oddity was a result of digital alteration or just an optical illusion.
Now, Kim has put paid to all the chitchat with another pH๏τo dump from the Christmas party, featuring a couple of pictures where her fans could catch a clear look at her hands and count two thumbs total.

Commenters on one Reddit post were divided in their ᴀssessment of the snap, with some arguing that the picture was poorly altered.
Others, however, deduced that Kim was clasping both her hands together, and so the supposed extra thumb was just the one from her other hand.
On the r/KWUTKsnark subreddit, a poster gleefully wrote: ‘Kim and her team are removing the “why do you have two thumbs on one hand” comments in real time and Im here for it! What a KLOWN!’
Observers quickly headed to the comments section to offer their own opinions on why the picture looked as strange as it did.
‘Is this a pH๏τoshop fail?’ wondered one, while another snidely accused Kim’s team of engineering the snafu ‘on purpose to get engagement’ for the reality star.
‘Man this woman’s hands can’t catch a break!’ joked one of the Redditors. ‘It’s like if it’s not one thing it’s another! Why can’t the pH๏τographer who edits the pH๏τos invest as much time on her hands as they do on her face?! Enough with the humilation and discrimination! #Justice4KimsHands’.
Other commenters sprang to Kim’s defense, such as one who wrote: ‘she’s using both hands lol you just can’t see her other arm. this is a reach.’
