Khloé Kardashian has been through a lot with the father of her two children, Tristan Thompson. The professional basketball player has been caught in multiple cheating scandals during his relationship with Khloé—including one notable incident involving Kylie Jenner’s now-ex-best friend, Jordyn Woods—but the reality star says that now, she’s “totally fine” with him.
In the July 13th episode of The Kardashians, Khloé was seen discussing her relationship with her children’s father, and had an answer ready when asked if there was any chance she would get back together with Tristan anytime soon.
Khloé Kardashian And Tristan Thompson Had Rocky Romantic Relationship
Khloé and Tristan first went public as a couple in September 2016, and in April 2018 welcomed their first baby, a little girl named True. Unfortunately, the basketball player was caught cheating on the Kardashians star with multiple women during her pregnancy with True, and though Khloé eventually forgave him, he was caught supposedly "making out" with Kylie's BFF Jordyn Woods less than a year later. The relationship initially ended when that news went public, but the pair decided to give things another try by August 2020. In early 2021, the pair decided to give True a sibling using their frozen embryos, but in December of that year Maralee Nichols gave birth to a baby of her own with Thompson, with him being confirmed to have been unfaithful to Khloé back in March when the baby was conceived.
Tristan took to Instagram to issue a public apology to Khloé in January 2022, writing, "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. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry." By July, it was confirmed that Tristan had agreed to be a sperm donor for Khloé, and their second child, Tatum, was born via surrogate in August. Since then, the former couple has co-parented pretty peacefully together, and Kardashian even supported Thompson through his mother's unexpected death in January of this year.
Khloé Says She "Forgives" Tristan For Infidelities, But Doesn't "Forget What He's Done"
Due to the couple's on-and-off nature during their complicated relationship—and having a child together even despite their breakup—rumors have consistently swirled that the two have gotten back together. In the July 13th episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian revealed to sister Khloé that Tristan had told her he was looking to buy a house in Hidden Hills, California, a gated community where the Kardashian clan happens to live. "I knew he was looking in Hidden Hills before. Like, I knew like six or eight months ago," responded Khloé.
When asked by friend (and sister Kourtney's ex) Scott Disick whether there were any "talks of chances" they might get back together, Khloé was straightforward: "No, no chances," she said. "I’m totally fine with [Tristan], like, I don’t have any issues with him, I really don’t. I just don’t have the energy for issues." During a later confessional on the episode with a producer, the Good American founder elaborated on her stance. "Yeah, I forgive Tristan. It doesn’t mean I forget what he’s done, but I forgive Tristan for me... I’ve gotta let that s**t go. I need to for myself. I can’t move on with my life if I’m holding onto this bulls---."

Khloé had previously taken to Instagram in May to shut down relationship rumors: "Stop pushing this narrative. It’s tiring," she commented on a post. "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."
