Fans are comparing Kourtney Kardashian's youthful looks in throwback photos to an unexpected family member

Kourtney Kardashian paid a sweet tribute to her father, but fans are focused on how much she looks like another member of the family — and an unexpected one at that.

On Monday, the Poosh founder posted two photos on her Instagram in memory of her late father Robert Kardashian. The first shot showed the duo posing in front of a balloon backdrop, and the second showed Robert smiling and waving at the camera. Kourtney captioned the post, “Father-daughter dance 1993. I miss you.”

While many fans commented on the sweet nature of the tribute, many others pointed out Kourtney's surprising resemblance to one of the youngest Kardashians: her niece North West. Quickly scroll through the comments section and you'll see message after message about North's resemblance to her aunt:

“Northie girl, is that you???”

“I've always said that North looks just like Kourtney and this picture proves it!”

“North has this whole face!”

“Northie is so much like you when you were younger.”

“North looks so much like Kourt because Kim and Kourt have the same face.”

“This is literally north.”

Although we were initially surprised by the comparison, we Do See glimpses of North in the youthful Kourtney, from her face shape to her signature posture. Then again, maybe it's not that surprising — as one person pointed out, Kourtney and her sister Kim Kardashian looked a lot alike as kids.

And this isn't the first time fans have pointed out similarities between Kourtney and North – there's an entire R/Kardashians thread with a photo slideshow of the two Kardashians at a similar age. If you weren't convinced by the surprising resemblance before, a look at the photos might convince you.
