‘I know how hard he fought to get me back’: Khloe Kardashian on trusting Tristan Thompson after THOSE cheating allegations and how the pandemic brought them closer
Khloe Kardashian says she rebuilt trust with Tristan Thompson after seeing how hard he fought to get back with her.
The 36-year-old answered some tough questions about her relationship with the serial cheat during the second part of the Keeping Up With The Kardashians reunion on Sunday.
The couple – who recently reconciled – started dating in 2016 and welcomed their daughter True in 2018, just days after it was reported that the NBA player had cheated on Khloe multiple times.

Asked if she trusts Tristan, Khloe told host Andy Cohen: ‘I mean, I definitely trust him as a friend and all those things… What I need to find out, everything comes my way. I just need to trust and focus on today and go day by day. I can’t worry too much about everything else.
‘I know the growth and the work that he’s done. I know all the help that he’s got, and the constant efforts that he makes every single day, and how hard he fought to get back with me currently. I don’t understand why someone would go through all that if they weren’t really serious,’ she said.
The two-part reunion was reportedly filmed in early April, before the latest scandal broke when Tristan was accused of cheating with a model named Sydney Chase.

Asked if she trusts Tristan again, Khloe told host Andy Cohen: ‘I mean, I definitely trust him as a friend and all those things… What I need to find out, everything comes my way. I just need to trust and focus on today and go day by day. I can’t worry too much about everything else.
During filming, Khloe was still wearing the massive diamond Tristan, 30, gave her, on her left hand. In recent snaps shared to her Instagram, however, the Good American founder appears to have removed the rock.
During the sit-down the mom-of-one also admitted that she wants more kids with the Boston Celtics player.
Talking about the couple’s potential surrogacy journey, Khloe said that the process had been more difficult that she expected – partly because of COVID restrictions and her own personal feelings about not carrying the baby herself.
‘I thought it would be an easy process’ she said. It’s challenging for me.’
In April 2018 Khloe documented the birth of her daughter, at a hospital in Cleveland, for season 15 of KUWTK and memorably made sure that Tristan was in the delivery room. It came just days after reports that the athlete had cheated on her while she was pregnant.

Even her siblings couldn’t believe her composure in that moment, as during the reunion Kim gushed, ‘I just remember thinking you are the bravest, calmest, most honorable person I’ve ever met.’
Khloe explained that for her the whole day was about her daughter True, now three.
‘I knew, OK, my daughter is gonna want to see her birth video one day, I would hope,’ she said. ‘I wanted to think about True in that moment and say, “This is not about me. We’re gonna handle this on our own, later. This should not ever affect my child.” And I wanted to have these memories to have these moments for her.’
Khloe recalled initially taking Tristan back at that time because she was ‘overwhelmed’ by the pressures of being a new mom.

But when he cheated once more, this time with family friend Jordyn Woods in 2019, things cooled off again.
During the pandemic, however, Khloe says they grew closer again, when the couple quarantined together with their daughter.
‘And then, I don’t know, we just really, really became genuine great friends with one another,’ she recalled. ‘It just was this natural progression. I’m not saying that’s what I would encourage other people to do, it’s just what naturally happened with him and I.’
On Jordyn, Khloe said she hasn’t spoken to Kylie’s former best friend but commented that she thinks she’s doing ‘really well in her personal life’.

She also noted that it’s a ‘huge misconception’ that she forgave Tristan but not Jordyn.
‘I don’t have any grudge against Jordyn. I think people make mistakes, people live and they learn,’ she explained. ‘I forgive both parties. How could I forgive Tristan and not Jordyn? That sounds asinine in my opinion.
‘I forgive her, or else I would be a prisoner in my life,’ she added. ‘I have to forgive these people for me, and it’s up to them to forgive themselves and be accountable and learn and hopefully don’t repeat these same cycles.’
