Kendall Jenner’s 818 Tequila brand has been accused of being strikingly similar to a rival brand.

The 25-year-old model has developed her own tequila brand, but Tequila 512 CEO Nick Matzorkis has already taken to Instagram to point out the similarities between the two products.

He wrote in a now-deleted message on social media: "Note the similarities including the color, the name and it is made in the same distillery in Tequila Mexico as ours (sic)"

Nick also observed that the brunette beauty's product costs twice as much as the Texas company's drink.

However, he subsequently insisted he's not accusing Kendall of doing anything wrong.

He told TV station KXAN: "To be clear, the post does not accuse them of ‘stealing our idea,’ but does point out obvious undeniable similarities that in their entirety makes a worthy point on the face of it."

Meanwhile, Kris Jenner - Kendall's mother - recently teased her family's new broadcasting deal.

The showbiz matriarch is looking forward to their move to Hulu once 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' ends this year after 20 seasons, and she described the switch as a "no brainer" for her family, with every series of the show already available on the streaming platform.

Kris - who has starred on the long-running series since 2007 - said: "This is the next chapter.

"In the new show, you'll see us evolving as a family, fans want us to be who we are and since moment one, they've been emotionally invested in our show just like we are.

"The fans will love seeing us continue the journey. I can't say much about what's coming but spoiler, we're going to look fabulous and everyone's going to watch."
