Kendall Jenner hits back at claims she’s not taking COVID-19 quarantine seriously

Kendall Jenner has hit back at claims she isn’t taking California‘s governor orders to self-isolate seriously amid the global coronavirus pandemic.

The model, 24, sparked concern among fans when she shared a snap from her classic ’65 red Ford Mustang on Tuesday, but she reassured her social media followers that she was only ‘starting up’ the vehicle from her home. 

Taking to Twitter, the KUWTK star explained that while she’s staying at home and taking social distancing measures ‘very seriously’, she reminded others that it’s ‘not a bad idea’ to get some ‘fresh air’ during the state’s lockdown.

A fan account shared a screenshot of the media personality’s car image, pleading: ‘UHMMM NO, Stay Home.  

‘No she just turn the car one !’, another Twitter user defended Kendall, before the critic responded: ‘oh okay HAHAHA i thought shes goingg to roam around Face with tears of joy sorry’ [sic]. 

The reality star stepped in to share her stance on self-isolation, penning: ‘of course i’m staying home!! 

‘taking this quarantine v seriously… but also not a bad idea to get some fresh air as long as you keep a safe distance from others and follow all guidelines 🙂 everyone stay healthy.’ [sic]

Earlier in the week, the catwalk queen uploaded throwback snaps with her pals as she admitted she ‘misses’ their company, but stressed the importance of playing a role in the fight against COVID-19.

She captioned the shots: ‘i miss my friends the sooner we quarantine, the sooner we can get back to our peoples again.’ [sic]

Meanwhile, Kendall’s sister Kylie Jenner has admitted she ‘loves’ being at home during the pandemic.

The siblings’ parent Caitlyn Jenner has been keeping in touch with the 22-year-old beauty via FaceTime every day since California was put into lockdown in a bid to slow the spread of COVID-19.

The former athlete insisted the make-up mogul is actually enjoying being confined to her mansion as she can spend every minute of every day with her two-year-old daughter Stormi.

Caitlyn, 70, recently told Entertainment Tonight: ‘I think Kylie’s happy because she’s at home and spending a lot of time with Stormi and she loves that.’

While Kylie has Stormi – whom she has with her ex-partner Travis Scott – to keep her company, Kendall is in Palm Springs with some of her friends.

The TV star explained: ‘Kendall has a couple of friends out in Palm Springs. Everyone’s kind of coping with it.

‘We just have to realise that the health of our country is much more important, and suck it up business-wise. And when things stop and things go back to normal at some point, we’ll fire back up again. Right now, everyone’s just laying low.

‘Kylie is a homebody. Kendall likes getting out, but [Kylie] loves being at home. She likes cooking, loves being with little Stormi. And she’s doing just fine.’
