“It was him trying to make a joke, and it wasn’t perceived well on Instagram,” the insider explains. “He doesn’t realize that making a joke could be perceived as something totally different or negative.”

The model, 25, made headlines when he wrote, “Thats what you need to show to show to get likes?” on a cheeky snap of Kardashian, 39, showing off her butt in a floral thong bikini while relaxing outside. The comment was deleted from the post shortly after.

Kardashian and Bendjima, who began dating in December 2016, have been traveling across Italy for the past month. Their sight-seeing stops so far have included Rome, Capri, Positano and Portofino.
