Khloé Kardashian Sunbathing In Black Bikini Warns 'The Crown May Tilt'

Reality star Khloé Kardashian is going through a lot of drama with her ex, Tristan Thompson.

Last December, the NBA star fathered a child with another woman, which caused the couple to go their separate ways, even though they have a 4-year-old child named True. The drama died down until earlier this month when it was revealed that Khloé was welcoming another baby with Tristan via a surrogate.

A rep later confirmed that the baby had been planned, but it still absolutely shocked fans that Khloé was welcoming a second child with the man who cheated on her. The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star seemed to be trying to live above the drama, but a cryptic Instagram post on Thursday has fans scratching their heads.

On Thursday, "The Kardashians" star took to social media to share a photo of her lounging on a yacht in a black bikini. Her abs look rock hard as she reclined on the deck of a yacht on a white towel with one leg propped up in front of her. She has dark sunglasses on to hide her eyes from the sun as she stares out into the distance with her short, bleached hair whipping around her face.

In the caption of the post, she wrote, "? Don’t forget, the crown may tilt at times but it never falls ?."

What does that mean? Fans aren’t quite sure, but some of them are too busy checking out her chiseled abs to pay it much mind!

Amanda Spearing wrote, “Abs for days ❤️❤️.” Dani Michelle wrote, ‘SHEEEEESHHHHHH.” Olivia Pierson commented, “???.”

Kardashian-Jenner matriarch Kris Jenner commented, “Never,” which earned hundreds of likes from fans. One fan commented, “@krisjenner you have beautiful kids you should be proud asf lol.”

Another follower wrote, “khloe you are tripping. but you will never shade yourself! you are extraordinary beautiful mom and a very beautiful woman with a diamond heart ????.”

Although some fans remain skeptical, a source close to the famous family recently told Us Weekly that Khloé still thinks Tristan can be a good dad. 

The source said that "one positive" thing that Khloé believes is that she has "zero doubt he'll step up and do the right thing with their new baby too." 

In a May episode of "The Kardashians," Khloé revealed that she and the Chicago Bulls forward were "good," adding, "We're actually in a really good place." The episode was reportedly filmed in October 2021, after the couple just barely managed to survive rumors that Tristan had been cheating on her with another woman - rumors that turned out to be true.

During the episode, Khloé said, "We just got back together. He's been going to therapy a lot. There's just been a lot of effort on his part." 

In "The Kardashians" finale on June 16, the California native revealed that she found out about the paternity scandal at the same time as the rest of the world did. She said she would have preferred that Tristan had addressed the matter with her privacy, first, before going public.

"I find out what Tristan is doing with the rest of the world," she said during the episode. "A courtesy would be not doing it. But fine, if you do it, you are not even going to give me a f–king heads-up before the rest of the world?" 

In January, the NBA star posted an apology on his Instagram page, saying, "Khloé, you don't deserve this. You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years."

"My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you," he continued. "I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry."

However, it remains to be seen how sorry Tristan is, considering he was recently photographed partying in Greece after the surrogate news broke. The Blast reported him holding hands with a mystery brunette as he walked down the street.

However, it seems Khloe is trying not to sweat the drama too much, as she recently hit the ocean in a hot pink bikini.
