While plenty of fans gushed over Holmes' "timeless beauty," others still thanked her for not editing out the stretch marks.

"I love it that you allow these photos to be unedited. Society needs more of these photos out there. Not to mention it shows the younger ones that it's ok to show what you have unfiltered and to love your body no matter what!" one Instagram user wrote.

Others used hashtags like #tigerstrips and #loveyourbody, while others mentioned her "warrior marks."

"So bold!! I love that you're slightly showing the pregnancy warrior marks. You go girl!!!!" someone said.

"I love [your] lioness stripes [Katie Holmes]," another said, calling it the "true beauty of a mother."

"Love how beautiful and natural you are with your body," one person wrote. "You aren't afraid to show your body exactly how it is."

Holmes isn't the only star to bare her stretch marks. Kourtney Kardashian, 40, also frequently puts her own on display, much to the delight of her fans. In August, she revealed a new photo of herself posing in a cut-out black one-piece swimsuit on a boat, reminding fans that she's not so different from them by putting her stretch marks on display loud and proud.
