Khloe Kardashian of The Kardashians still believes Tristan Thompson is a "good person" despite the paternity scandal he hid from her. Khloe was shocked along with the rest of the world when Tristan's name got tied to a paternity suit that surfaced late last year. By January, Tristan kicked off the New Year by admitting to fathering a child with another woman. His confession came after a DNA test as part of Maralee Nichols' paternity suit for their son Theo.

Tristan didn't name Maralee by name, but he apologized to Khloe and everyone he's hurt both privately and publicly. With the NBA player conceiving the child while he was reconciled with Khloe last year, it was proof of yet another one of his cheating scandals. Khloe has since moved on from Tristan for good. The pair separated months before the paternity scandal hit the press. But the new Hulu show is revealing how involved the two co-parenting partners remained after their reported split last June.

Even after Tristan embarrassed Khloe one time too many with his cheating, the Good American co-founder still appears to have a soft spot for her ex/baby daddy. "It’s sad because there’s so many good sides to him as well, but no one gets to see those because they’re all overshadowed by the personal stuff that’s going on between him and I,” Khloe said on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. The Kardashians star went on to seemingly defend Tristan's past infidelity by noting how “everyone makes mistakes." While she credits Tristan for being “a good person,” Khloe can admit that the NBA champion is “not a good partner” for her. She also mentioned how common she views her relationship woes with Tristan since “a lot of other people in the world that have been through probably similar situations,” Khloe said.

But her tone highlights the affection she still feels for Tristan despite how many times he's cheated. As the father of her only child, it won't be easy for Khloe to move on. She has been readjusting to the single life by focusing on family, her health, and personal happiness. Fans are hopeful that The Kardashians star doesn't take Tristan back as she has in the past. However, her latest comments on her ex point to the possibility of Khloe warming up to Tristan. The NBA player has gotten caught cheating while Khloe was pregnant with their daughter True. He was also caught kissing Kylie Jenner's former BFF Jordyn Woods.

Tristan's latest scandal included him cheating on Khloe with Maralee on his 30th birthday and conceiving a child. It was the same day Khloe confirmed their reconciliation with a heartfelt birthday tribute that followed the party she threw for him. However, despite how low Tristan has gone when it comes to his infidelity, Khloe can still see the "good" in her cheating ex. The Kardashians is following Khloe and Tristan's relationship leading up to the paternity scandal and many viewers are cringing over the foreshadowing that occurred during filming.
