July 2018: Trouble in paradise? When Kourtney took to Instagram and decided to post a photo in a floral-print bikini swimsuit, fans noticed that Younes wasn't too impressed with the image. "That's what you need to show to get likes?" he reportedly wrote before deleting the comment. Ultimately, Kourt wasn't a fan of the quick decision. "Kourtney doesn't appreciate Younes posting his feelings in a public forum and being impulsive. She's frustrated that he continues to get upset about it," a source shared with us. "She isn't going to stop doing what she's doing and feels like he needs to understand and deal with it."
