The water pressure debate is the latest drama involving Jenner, but she's faced a steady stream of backlash throughout the pandemic.
People have expressed their frustration at Jenner's international travels as many remain isolated at home far from friends at families and accused her of "cashing in" on the pandemic by selling $7 Kylie Skin hand sanitizer.
She's not the only Kardashian-Jenner experiencing increased scrutiny; Her entire family has been the subject of criticism for their handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
Kim Kardashian West sparked a meme trend after sharing photos from a private island she rented for her family and friends in October; Kendall Jenner was denounced for throwing a crowded, mask-free birthday party the next month; and Khloe Kardashian's fans weren't thrilled after she posted "tone deaf" pictures in which she surrounds herself with Louis Vuitton bags in December.
