Scott Disick recently lost weight amid rumors that he has turned to Ozempic to shed the pounds.
On Tuesday, the reality TV star, 40, showed off his slimmer figure while in New York with daughter Penelope, 11, and son Reign, nine.
He looked dapper in a deep blue suit and a crisp white shirt with the top buttons open.
His hair was perfectly styled, as was his facial hair, which was cut to accentuate his striking jawline.
The Kardashians cast member appeared to have more sunken cheeks than before – no doubt due to his weight loss.
Behind him stood occasional girlfriend Bella Banos and two security guards.

Disick – who shares three children with his ex Kourtney Kardashian – sparked concern when he was pictured earlier this month looking noticeably thinner after a meal with his friends at Catch Steak restaurant in West Hollywood.
Fans feared his appearance was the result of an undisclosed illness or drug use, but sources have told DailyMail.com he has been taking Ozempic in a bid to get rid of his ‘dad bod’.
“He is not sick and does not use hardcore drugs,” says an insider. “Kourtney would never let Scott spend so much time with their children if he was in the grips of addiction.
‘Scott started taking Ozempic because he was having serious problems with his weight gain. This time last year he saw himself as fat.
‘He had gained a lot of weight and could not bear to see himself on video footage broadcast in recent months. He would do anything to cover it up.”
The insider claimed that the star, like many in Hollywood, wanted to use the miracle drug as a quick way to shed the extra pounds he had gained.

Fans are concerned about his health after he was seen significantly thinner in recent weeks, and it has now been revealed he has been taking Ozempic

The source explained, “Scott wanted the easy way out of his father’s body. But now it has clearly gone too far and of course the family is worried about him.”
“Scott wanted the easy way out of his father’s body,” they said. ‘But now it has clearly gone too far and the family is obviously concerned about him.’
The source added, “They’ll probably use this for ratings on The Kardashians. Scott is strong and will be able to get through this – especially now that he knows it has become a major problem with his image and fame.”
Scott’s well-being became a topic of conversation last year after an episode of the hit reality show Hulu.
Khloe visited Scott due to her concerns about his health after he suffered a back injury.
The star’s battle began in August 2022 after a car accident that left his Lamborghini upside down.
During the episode, Scott admitted that he hadn’t done the physical therapy needed to recover, later telling his doctor, “I haven’t been able to run around.” I have arrived.’
Khloe said, “I think Scott needs a little pep talk because this is probably the most unhealthy I’ve seen him. He has very little mobility and it’s all coming from his back, so no one would be comfortable with that.”
Scott then admitted that he had “gained a lot of weight… because of my back.”
Scott was in a long-term relationship with Kourtney Kardashian from 2006 to 2015 and the former couple share three children together (pictured in October 2013)
The businessman has also struggled with substance abuse throughout his adult life and was even hospitalized for alcohol poisoning in June 2020.
Before that, he suffered a near-fatal overdose in 2014 after taking almost an entire bottle of sleeping pills after a wild night out drinking and partying.
He was eventually convinced by his ex-girlfriend Kourtney to enter rehab for a month-long stay.
The star made changes to his diet in 2020 after discovering he had low testosterone levels.
