Fans are hailing this the DMV-gate as drama between famous sisters Kourtney and Kim Kardashian takes a slightly odd turn.
The Kardashians have been gracing our screen for years now and as many of us will agree, we're certainly no strangers to their sisterly feuds.
But these feuds seem to have taken an unexpected turn this week, with Kourtney throwing apparent shade at sister Kim through a driver's licence snap.

After releasing a snapshot of her name change and new driving licence photo, Kourtney Kardashian Barker is being called out by fans for throwing shade at her sister.
To celebrate her new life as a married woman to Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, Kourtney shared a photo close-up of her new license photo above her new legal name on Instagram over the weekend - of course, looking as flawless as ever.
Captioning the photo with "Say my name", the 44-year-old was rocking her classic long bobbed hair as she posed for the pic.
But she just so happened to post this snap on the same day in which her long-time nemesis - or sister - Kim brought her glam team to the DMV for her own licence photo, which was featured during the latest episode of The Kardashians.
In the episode, which aired on the same day as Kourtney's Instagram post, the 42-year-old Skims founder closed down a California DMV and used it as her own personal salon in order to get ready for the event.
Kitted out in a pair of Balenciaga flip-flops, a varsity jacket and a black mock-neck top along with her hair and makeup artists in tow, Kim began to get dolled up for 'the most important photo you’ll ever take', causing fans to immediately suspect foul-play in the coincidental timing due to a history of the pair feuding over copied looks.
Commenters took to Kourtney’s Instagram post to leave a few scathing messages to let her know that they’re on to her, with one user saying: “Lol after Kim’s license episode…. It’s not a comp Kourtney.”
“Not you copying kim,” another fan quipped, while someone else said: “Kourtney is totally mocking Kim’s episode from today."
“The timing of this post has me screaming,” another person chimed in.
And one fan said: “The same day the episode came out. Dare I say there’s still beef."
With almost 9,000 comments on the photo, it’s clear that there was a certain buzz surrounding the suggested controversy.
Now, fans are taking this as a social media shade post due to their past of feuding over brands.
Such as the recent Dolce & Gabbana battle, which saw Kourtney become upset with Kim for partnering with the Italian fashion house months after she did an exclusive collab with the brand for her wedding in May 2022.
But in typical Kardashian fashion, Kim called her out for being a 'hater' who 'doesn’t have any friends'.
Hopefully, the pair come to an agreement over who gets to do what and when so that there are no overlapping brand deals.
