Khloe Kardashian thanked her family for their support around the Tristan Thompson paternity scandal after The Kardashians aired the episode where the Kar-Jenners find out. Back in January, Tristan posted a public apology to Khloe on Instagram, admitting he was the father of personal trainer Maralee Nichols' son. Rumors had been spreading since early December, but fans didn't find out the truth until Tristan's Instagram declaration. This was sadly not Tristan's first time cheating on Khloe, but according to the star, this was the last straw, and she plans to move on to someone new when she's ready to start dating again.
On The Kardashians, Khloe spoke very highly of her ex-boyfriend. The two share 4-year-old daughter True Thompson together and try to remain cordial for the sake of their daughter. Khloe was sure Tristan had changed after attending therapy, and the two formed a strong friendship due to their co-parenting duties. Unfortunately, at the end of the latest episode of The Kardashians, the film crew scrambled to Kim's personal gym, where she was on the phone with her sisters Kylie Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian, discussing the paternity news that just broke. At the time, Khloe was still unaware of the scandal.
Khloe typically watches the episodes with her fans and tweets her reactions, and for the emotional end of this episode, Khloe thanked her family for their support over Tristan's scandal. Khloe tweeted, "Rewatching this part is uncomfortable but I love and appreciate my family more than I can express. Praise the Lord I have them for the res[t] for my life." The Kar-Jenners always stick together and always have each other's backs, and when the news broke in the new episode, the family was furious and so worried about how Khloe would take the news. Fans also had Khloe's back as her tweet received an abundance of kind and loving replies.
Kar-Jenner fan @HeiligMissy responded to Khloe's tweet, "U are such a beautiful soul inside & out & deserve all the love & happiness in the world! So much love & respect to u!" In the episode, Kim frantically explains the situation to her sisters and expresses how much pain she feels for Khloe. According to Kim, Khloe was still asleep when the news broke as it was early in the morning. However, the SKIMS founder read off paperwork that Tristan filed, which said he had slept with Maralee the night of his 30th birthday, which happened to be after Khloe threw a party for him.
The situation is definitely overwhelming and devastating, especially when Khloe had such high hopes that she and Tristan would reconcile. Luckily, the star had the most supportive and loyal family with her throughout the scandal. While it may not have taken any of the pain away, it surely helped her feel less alone. Thankfully, the scandal is in the past, and The Kardashians star was able to move forward and heal with help from the rest of the Kar-Jenners.
