Cape Town - Kylie Jenner is not shy when it comes to showing off her body and after her latest GQ cover we now know that she is not shy about showing off her scars too.

According to US Weekly, the reality personality revealed in a 2011 Q&A with Celebuzz that the scar on her thigh was the outcome of a childhood game gone wrong.

"When I was about five, my sister [Kendall] and I were playing hide and seek, and I hid inside this really tall, enclosed gate. After a while, when my sister didn’t find me, I had to climb up on this sharp pole sticking out from the gate. I slipped, and the pole went into my leg. I tried pulling away to get the pole out, but it just tore through my whole leg," Kylie said.

Kylie also took time to embrace the flaw in an Instagram picture in December 2015 that shows a close-up of the mark which runs from the back of her knee up to her thigh. She captioned her picture: "I love my scar."
