Back On Good Terms

Over the recent Christmas holiday, Khloe and True spent time with Tristan in Boston. Khloe even sported a giant diamond ring, leading many of her fans to believe that she and Tristan might be engaged — though the rumors were completely unfounded. Khloe and True did spend New Year’s Eve together back in Los Angeles, but it’s clear that the parents have come a long way over the course of their time together. “She has no plans of leaving LA for Boston full-time,” a source close to Khloe EXCLUSIVELY shared with HL, sharing some of Khloe’s future plans. “So they’ll continue to do the best they can.”
Failure To Launch A Second Time
For a brief moment in 2021, Khloe and Tristan were back together. And then, they weren’t. “We just really became genuine, great friends with one another and great co-parents,” Khloe explained during the Keeping Up With the Kardashians reunion. The special was filmed in April 2021, and KoKo explained that why she took him back. “He’s a great dad. It was just this natural progression. I’m not saying it’s what I would encourage other people to do. It’s just what naturally happened for him and I.”
Khloe – who said that she and Tristan weren’t together during season 20, filmed in the second half of 2020 – talked about trusting Tristan after his infidelity. “I know the growth and all the work that he’s done. I know the help he’s got and the constant efforts that he makes every single day and how hard he fought to get back with me,” she said.
The KUWTK reunion special aired on June 20. On June 21, Khloe and Tristan had broken up again, according to Page Six. The breakup came amid rumors that Tristan went into a room with three women at a Bel Air birthday party on June 18 and looked “disheveled” when he came out. Tristan responded to these allegations by tweeting six cap emojis. To “cap,” in modern slang, means to lie, and thus, Tristan called out these reports as being false.
Khloe and Tristan, according to Page Six, two broke up without any drama, the split was “amicable,” and they remain “on the same page with co-parenting.”
Tristan’s Paternity Scandal
In Dec. 2021, court documents were released which revealed that Tristan had been accused of fathering another woman, Maralee Nichols’, child. Maralee was due with a son on Dec. 3, 2021, and claimed that Tristan was the father. In court documents, Tristan admitted to having sex with Maralee multiple times in March 2021 (Editor’s Note: Tristan was still together with Khloe at this time). However, Tristan requested a paternity test in his court documents because, he claimed, Maralee did not know the exact date of conception.
Welcoming a Second Child
It was confirmed that Khloe and Tristan were getting ready to welcome their second child via surrogate on July 13, 2022. A rep for Khloe revealed the child was conceived in Nov. 2021. “We can confirm True will have a sibling who was conceived in November,” Khloe’s rep told HollywoodLife in a statement. “Khloe is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We’d like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloe can focus on her family.”
