The NBA star, 32, and the Good American founder, 38, have two children together.

They co-parent their daughter, True Thompson, 4, and their 8-month-old son whom they welcomed via a surrogate in August 2022. Khloe and Tristan have had an on-again-off-again relationship for several years now, mostly due to Tristan Thompson's repeated infidelity episodes.

Drama and Infidelity

  • Even when Khloé Kardashian was pregnant with their first child in April 2018, Tristan Thompson was cheating on her with multiple women.
  • Despite this infidelity episode, the two tried to work things out. However, Kardashian dumped the NBA star in December 2021 after she got to know that he fathered another woman's baby while they were expecting their son via surrogate. 
  • Tristan was having a baby with Texas trainer Maralee Nichols, who had conceived the child while Tristan was dating Khloé.
  • Despite the tumultuous relationship between the two, Khloe and Tristan maintain a cordial co-parenting relationship.
  • Tristan Thompson and Khloé Kardashian were seen together at a McDonald's drive-thru in Rialto, California, on April 4, 2023.

Khloé reveals the name of their baby boy starts with "T"

  • In an interview with Jennifer Hudson on The Jennifer Hudson Show that aired on April 6, The Kardashians reality show star announced that she has chosen a name for her 8-month-old baby boy, and that it starts with 'T' (keeping the 'T' family traditional alive; her daughter is named True). Khloe has not revealed her son's name yet.
  • Khloe also revealed that it took a while for her to settle in on her son's name because, "I wanted to meet him and feel him out a little bit. At first, he didn't have a name. Then, he's been named but I've been waiting for the premiere of our show and I didn't know it was going to be this far out."
  • Kardashian also confirmed in the interview that she is very much single and has not reconciled with her ex-partner. She also went on to say that her elder sister Kim Kardashian loves to set her up on dates.
