Taking to Instagram, Jenner shared a throwback snap of Kylie and a gushing message with her 8.8 million followers in a bid to quell speculation that their relationship had become frosty.

"My daughter just had a daughter. It's amazing to be by your side through this journey," she captioned the snap which shows baby Kylie grinning at the camera - with food smeared around her mouth.

"She's SO beautiful already. Can't wait to watch her grow. Throwback to my baby, as a baby."

As her daughter went into labour in Los Angeles, the former Olympian was in Dublin where she was a guest at the Xpose Benefit Awards.

It was previously reported Jenner was not pleased about Kylie becoming a young mother, with a source telling Hollywood Life: "Obviously, Kylie has more than enough money to ensure that she can pay for help, but Caitlyn still thinks that having a baby will take a huge toll on Kylie's life.

In a lengthy statement to fans, Kylie revealed why she had shunned the limelight as she prepared to become a mother.

"My pregnancy was one I chose not to do in front of the world. I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a lifetime in the most positive, stress-free and healthy way I knew how," she explained. "Pregnancy has been the most beautiful, empowering, and life-changing experience I've had in my entire life and I'm actually going to miss it.
