Khloé Kardashian is shutting down reconciliation rumors surrounding her and Tristan Thompson. Lately, there’s been speculation that the reality-TV star and Los Angeles Lakers player, who share two kids together (daughter True and a son whose name has yet to be revealed), are getting back together (again) following their last fallout in late 2021 after Thompson welcomed another child with personal trainer Maralee Nichols. The new rumors are mostly on account of Khloé’s sister Kim Kardashian attending multiple Lakers games to support Thompson, but the Good American cofounder expressed her frustrations over them on May 16 under an Instagram post on a fan page.
“Stop pushing this narrative. It’s tiring,” Khloé started her comment. “But I suppose You guys will continue the narrative you want regardless of what I say so what’s the point. It’s exhausting but I learned people will only understand to the level of their own perception. Most are stuck at believing the lies because it’s the narrative they want to fuel. Have fun…. Some things are just as simple as they seem. A family member supporting another family member ESPECIALLY during a difficult time in life.”
Khloé went on to name her friendly relationship with her “brother,” Scott Disick, who shares three kids (Mason, Penelope, and Reign) with her sister Kourtney Kardashian, as an example of her family supporting one another with no ulterior motives. “Some things really are just as they are. ❤️,” Khloé concluded.

Khloé and Thompson were first linked way back in September 2016 but have broken up multiple times through the years on account of the latter’s infidelity. They got back together in August 2020 but reportedly split the following year in June after cheating rumors swirled around Thompson and model Sydney Chase, who claimed she slept with him while he and Khloé were dating. The NBA player denied her claims, per TMZ.
Though Khloé confirmed on “The Kardashians” that she and Thompson were still romantically involved during the fall of 2021, they parted ways again after Thompson publicly admitted to fathering a child with Nichols. “Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols,” he wrote in a January 2022 Instagram Story. “I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son.”
In July 2022, news broke that Khloé and Thompson were expecting their second child together via surrogate: their son, whose birth was reported the following month. According to People, a rep for Khloé confirmed that the parents’ second child was conceived in November 2022 when they were still together.
