Khloe Kardashian has had enough of the rumors that she and Tristan Thompson are still a romantic item.
For those living under a rock, Kardashian and the NBA player’s romance which dates back to 2016, has been on and off for years after being heavily plagued with an array of infidelity issues.
However, the final straw that broke the camel’s back happened in January 2022 when the Lakers player fathered a child with his mistress Maralee Nichols in a messy scandal. After their split, Khloe swore off the basketball player even though they welcomed a second child, a son named Tatum.
However, despite the “KUWTK” alum’s revelation that she and Thompson are only friendly co-parents, fans didn’t take her word for it due to several hints. Koko is setting the record straight for the final time and letting the world know she is not getting back with her baby daddy.
Khloe Kardashian Is Tired Of The Narrative Of A Reunion With Tristan Thompson
Despite Khloe and Thompson going their separate ways after Nichols’ paternity scandal, fans remained confused about their relationship because the athlete remained ingrained in the Kardashian-Jenner clan.
The latest event to make tongues wag happened earlier this month when Khloe’s elder sister Kim Kardashian was seen courtside supporting the Canadian native for his first game with the Lakers. The SKIMS founder brought her eldest daughter North West, who held a placard to support the basketballer.
Following the sighting, an anonymous fan contacted the gossip blog, Deux Moi, asking, “Kim supporting Tristan at the Lakers game…What is going on?” In response, Moi claimed Khloe and Thomspon are back together. “Allegedly, he’s back with Koko, so maybe she’s soft-launching the idea so everyone is prepared & doesn’t give Koko a hard time.”
The interaction was shared by the fan page Khloelegend and caught the attention of the 38-year-old, who took to the comments section to set the record straight. “Stop pushing this narrative. It’s tiring,” the “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami” star began.
“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.”
She continued, explaining that people are stuck believing the lies because it fuels a particular narrative, but that’s far from the case. “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,” she urged.
Further driving home her point, the mother-of-two gave an example of her bond with Scott Disick, her sister Kourtney Kardashian’s ex. “example….. just how I support Scott and will forever support him. He’s my brother. It’s just not on an NBA stage,” she wrote.
Telling off the rumor mongers finally, Khloe noted, “Sad new world; if there are no photos, people think it didn’t happen, but yes, I see Scott often. Some things are just as they are. ❤️.”
The Good American Founder Serenaded Tristan For His Birthday
This isn’t the first time Khloe has shut down rumors of getting back into a relationship with Thompson. Back in February after the “Khloe and Lamar” star assured fans on Twitter that she was only friends with the basketballer.
At the time, she spent the whole of January being by the former Cleveland Cavaliers player’s side after he lost his mother, Andrea.
While interacting with her fans, Khloé responded to a question about her relationship status, writing, “Who has time for a man lol I have a 6-month-old baby, and True and I are sickly codependent on one another. Ha! I secretly love it. No, but for real…. No man right now…. He’s in my prayers, too, ha!”
Barely a month after the public response, the third Kardashian-Jenner sister publicly shouted out to the father of kids on his birthday, to the dismay of fans.
For his 32nd birthday, she took to her Instagram to gush over the Canadian native, writing, “Happy birthday @realtristan13. You are truly the best father, brother & uncle. Your love, attention, silly dances, hugs, carpool rides, bedtime rituals, and how you show up for them. All of the above means more than you’ll ever know to your family of littles. My birthday wish is that you continue to crave change, healing, and transformation. Be strong, be kind, be patient, be free. Continue to Make your soul and your mommy proud. Happy birthday baby daddy.”
