As a world-famous reality star with an incredible wardrobe, self-funded glamorous lifestyle and a rapper boyfriend, we can imagine Kylie Jenner is pretty happy with her life at the moment.

But her raunchy outfit choices and DGAF attitude often hide the fact that underneath it all, Kylie is still a teenager who under any other circumstances would still be living at home, going to high school every day and meeting guys closer to her own age. That reality was highlighted today when the 17-year-old posted a screenshot from an early episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians that made us feel just a little bit sad for her.

The image, showing a much younger looking Kylie with filler-free lips, unstyled hair and pale skin, has the subtitle "KYLIE: I promise that I won't grow up too fast."

While Kylie poked some fun at her youngest self by adding the caption, "Dammit, Kylie!" and a laughing emoji, we wonder if she'll find her sped-up teenage years quite so funny further down the line.

With less than a month to go until she is finally legal adult, Kylie has said that her birthday plans are pretty low-key. "Well the first thing I want to do is maybe have like a birthday party and then maybe go on a trip with just my friends," she told E! News at the launch of her Kylie Hair Kouture extension line in Los Angeles last week. 

No doubt she will also throw one hell of a party at her recently-purchased mansion, a €2.3m property in Calabasas, California which was reportedly purchased with zero financial help from Kylie's parents Kris and Caitlyn Jenner.

The teen has been financially independent for years, with a solid income from her PacSun clothing range, hair extensions line and other endorsement deals.

"My mom cut me off financially three years ago," she told InStyle magazine last year. "I pay for everything — my car, my gas, and food, as well as my clothes."
