Pregnant Khloé Kardashian hits back at airport paparazzi: 'I already feel like crap'

Khloé Kardashian is taking a stand.

The 33-year-old Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, who is expecting her first child with Cleveland Cavaliers player Tristan Thompson, spoke out on Twitter following a particularly distressing experience while travelling through the airport this week.

According to the reality star, paparazzi screamed "rude things" at her while trying to take her picture, forcing Kardashian to share the incident online.

"Really wish paparazzi would understand how hard flying is on my body right now," the Revenge Body star wrote. "It's the only time I feel incredibly exhausted, swollen and nauseous. Screaming rude things and taking my picture when I already feel like crap I can really do without."

She added: "At least be quiet if you must."

Kardashian has been particularly open about her pregnancy journey since confirming she was expecting last December with a sweet announcement on Instagram.

Unlike her younger sis, Kylie Jenner -- who is also reportedly pregnant -- Kardashian has been sharing bump pics, workout secrets, diets and favourite maternity fashion picks on her website.

Following Kardashian's initial tweet, she extended her gratitude to her fans.

"I love you guys!" she wrote. "I know it comes with the territory and I hate when people complain about stuff like that. But while I'm pregnant I would love some boundaries with the paparazzi."

She signed off: "I know it won't happen but here's to putting it in the universe."
