But Kim Kardashian’s theorized ‘sixth toe’ made its presence known once again in a snapshot taken during the star’s controversial 40th birthday getaway last week.

‘WHY IS KIM HAVING SIX TOES IN ONE OF THESE PICS NOT TRENDING,’ wrote one Twitter user, who was clearly in shock over the matter.
In the photo posted to her Instagram on Tuesday, Kim can be seen strutting down an outdoor pathway with her BFF La La Anthony, 39.

Many of the comments left on Twitter and Instagram served the purpose of finding out just how many others ‘noticed she [had] six toes’ in the picture.

‘Certainly looks like 6 toes to me. So, she’s polydactyl; who cares?’ they wrote.
A fan of Kardashian’s noted that ‘the one thing [they] will defend kim k on’ is her ‘wide feet that make it look like she has six toes.’

She captioned the video, ‘very baffling.’
