You guys, I really do feel sorry for Khloe Kardashian. Baby True Thompson is a week old, and Khloe probably just wants to spend some time with the baby and that’s it. That’s all she wants to do. But the whole world is like “girl, you need to respect yourself and walk away from Tristan right now!!” Give her time. If Khloe’s still talking about how “in love” she is with Tristan three months from now, then we can talk. But for now, can we just let her enjoy these first days with her first baby without making it into some do-or-die relationship drama? Anyway, People Magazine has like a million new stories about Khloe and Tristan. Here are some highlights:
Why Khloe didn’t name the baby True Kardashian: A source tells People, “Khloé still very much loves Tristan, and this baby is one half his. True is their child together. Giving the baby his last name was never in question.”
Kris Jenner explains the family connection with the name: “I’m so excited to welcome my precious little granddaughter True!!! FUN FACT… my Grandfather’s name on my Dad’s side was True Otis Houghton….my real Dad’s name was Robert True Houghton…so i am so excited Khloe named her daughter True!!! #lovebug #familytradition #family.”
Khloe still believes she and Tristan can recover: “Khloé really wants to be able to forgive and trust Tristan again and have the life she hoped to have with him. She doesn’t know if she’ll be able to do that, but that’s the goal. She loves the life they had, she loves the baby they have together, and she still loves the dream of being a family together. If she can find a way to rebuild with Tristan, she will,” the source continues, adding that it “still remains to be seen” whether that’s possible.
She’s still staying at Tristan’s house: “She left the hospital and is staying at Tristan’s house with the baby. Khloé is waiting for the doctors to tell her it’s safe to fly and then she will return to L.A.”
She’s bitter: “She still can’t believe what happened earlier this week…She is very bitter about it. She doesn’t want to be in a relationship with him. She will make sure her daughter still has a good relationship with him, though. Tristan is bonding with the baby. She’s not going to be making a firm decision one way or the other just yet. She is concentrating on the baby… The baby deserves that, and Khloé is focusing on being a mom and this early bonding experience. That applies to Tristan bonding with his daughter as well. As for her relationship with Tristan, she’ll look at next steps when she’s ready.”
If you couldn’t tell, the sources can’t even agree on what Khloe’s next steps will be. Which, as I said, is fair enough. She’s just focused on True right now. Let her do that. And I do think that once a few weeks pass and the doctors clear Khloe and True for travel, that’s when she’ll fly to LA and there will be other conversations about everything.
Oh, and TMZ has a new story about how Khloe and Tristan’s relationship is “in ruins” and “hanging on by a thread” despite all of the quotes about how they’re working on it and whatever. As I said, just give her some time.

She is still his child. I do not feel like this is surprising. It is best for True for her to have a strong relationship with her father. Hope that happens.
Ideally but do you think Tristan is really going to be an involved Dad? So so sad.
Probably not. But still, he is her dad. It is really sad. Kids can’t pick their parents.
She doesn’t want time. She wants attention.
As much as I agree these people are famewhores, they still are people who fall in love, who get hurt, who go through all the emotions us regular people experience…only they spin/milk it in the public eye.
But I feel bad for what she is going through. I think she really wants to be in love, have someone love her and raise a family together. And that dream was just tossed out the window.
Maybe if she sought out a man that wasn’t already in a relationship, or perhaps didn’t marry one she knew thirty days, or if she considered dating someone who wasn’t a pro baller, her chances of success would increase. Why does she wear a top pony when her face is so big and long. Sorry Khloe, very petty I’m being, but you make it so easy.
Agreed. They are still human that go through human experiences. What surprises me is that she still thinking about Tristan “recovering” and her getting her dream life with him. She went through this with Lemar, has experience not taught her anything? She tried to “fix” him too, A man will do what he wants when he wants, there’s no fixing a grown ass man who’s shown you who he is.
I don’t really get the male last thing name. My parents aren’t married and I have my mother’s last name. I much prefer a double name to just the mans. If I push a baby out through my vagine, you can BET it’s getting my surname.
Lol this legit made lol “you can bet its gettinfg my surname” dead
Why not both last names unless the father is a deadbeat?
Love this!
Tradition I suppose. I gave my daughter her fathers last name, we’ve been together forever but aren’t married legally. Plus I love his last name and it goes much better with the name we chose for our daughter. He has a very small family, my family is huge, thought it would be nice to have a kid with his last name.
My last name was hard to spell and pronounce and I had no great attachment to my father. My husband has a nice last name that happened to go great with my first name, so I was happy to take his!
I agree! My son is named First Name, My Last Name, Dad’s Last Name. I carried and pushed him out. He was getting my name.
She had the same ride or die love and devotion for Lamar. Married him after knowing him a month and of course he cheated on her. I doubt she’s ever had a relationship where the guy wanted her for something other than what came with her name. No pity from me. Redundant now, did she ever for one second think how her man and she did the same thing to another woman. She’s oblivious to the truth, the name does not suit the child. LA’s calling Khloe, go answer.
All the focus on what Khloé wants. None of it matters if he wants out.
Can’t force him to stay if he wants out. I’m sure his problem is with the media. To eff around on two women and have two babies in as much time doesn’t make him a media darling. Any pity she has is because of his actions. She never could keep a man, and it probably won’t be any different for double duty daddy.
‘She never could keep a man’? OMFG that old line? The object in life is not to ‘keep a man.’ If she finds the right one, and I hope she will. If not, that’s cool too. She doesn’t need to sink her claws into a man and chain him in her mf basement. Sometimes relationships don’t work out, has nothing to do with keeping someone.
I’m not crazy about the name but I do think she will be a better mom than Kylie. She does seem to be very loving and dedicated to family, I remember how kind she was to Lamar’s dad.
As a nurse I can say that infants CRAVE their parents and want to be held by them. Leaving the womb is traumatic and it takes weeks to adjust. Kylie and Travis need to focus on Stormy (Stormi)? and not music festivals, sorry. But I guess it’s not that different from other rich people at the turn of the century who had wet nurses and governesses and only saw the baby for like an hour a day.
Is Kylie not a good mom? How do we know this? I admit that I side eye Kim a bit, because she is appears to be away from her newborn quite a bit. They are only little for such a short time. That might be just appearances though. The social media game with these girls is just that, a game.
I am assuming Kylie went and slept at home after being at Coachella. I see what you are saying though.
I don’t know how good or bad of a mom Kylie is or will be. But quoting mean girls and suggesting it’s “cool” to leave your newborn home with a nanny while you go party is not very responsible. It seems very entitled and immature. It makes me sad to think young girls may look up to her. They might be getting the wrong idea about what an important job being a parent is. Most moms can’t party for the weekend and still be a present, healthy parent to a newborn.
I did not know that. That is terrible. I have 3 little girls. I hope Kylie is out of fashion by the time they are old enough to “admire” her.
What a mess! I feel sorry for Khloé . I know a lot of people say she put her self in this situation considering he left another pregnant girlfriend to be with her, but it’s still terrible timing!!!
I was over joyed but also exhausted and overwhelmed when I had my first baby. It was a roller coaster between being so madly in love with my daughter and being scared at the enormity of my new responsibilities. That was with a healthy, supportive husband on board! I can’t imagine having to deal with infidelity at that time! Crazy hormones and sleep deprivation are difficult in even the best situation.
Thankfully it sounds like the baby is healthy and Khloé probably has a lot of support besides her philandering boyfriend.
I can’t help feel badly for this new generation of Kardashians being born into this messy reality machine, but at the same time these children will be well provided for and it does seem like there is a lot of love.
Does Tristan’s son have his last name? Just wondering.
It’s obvious Tristan doesn’t want to be in this relationship. I am sure they are going to edit things for their show and even “re-do” scenes to make it appear that Tristan begged for forgiveness. If he really wanted to stay with Khloe, he wouldn’t have cheated…and so publicly at that.
Lastly, there is nothing stopping Khloe from “enjoying this time”. All she has to do is stay off social media, don’t read comments. Do you really think people aren’t going to share their opinions lol it’s 2018 !
Tristan hasn’t made a comment, none of these sources state what HE wants to do because it’s obvious HE doesn’t want to make it work. At best, he said he was sorry but didn’t say he wanted to work it out. He assumed once he was caught it was over. Does anyone remember that cringe worthy scene in “He’s not that into you” when Bradley Coopers character is caught cheating and you can see his disappointment that she wants to work it out. Such a cowards move.
Yeah, the hormones will subside. I was in a similar situation and still moved back into his home after our baby was born – that’s where the nursery was, I was all loved up again and just wanted to bond with my son. Four months later I was so done and out of there. Give her some time to let her head clear, she’s been through so much. I love that the name is a family name – I just keep wondering what they all seem to have against middle names lol? Congrats to her!
She’s incredibly bitter, blissed out, and forgiving.
Say what you will about Khloe but she does seem to be the most “real.” I mean she moved to Cleveland, I highly doubt any of the other family members would be willing to leave Calabasas/LA for anything or anyone.
Well, it’s important that True has something to remember his father by.
So many conflicting statements…sounds like they are fishing for stories to sell ..
It’s their usual M.O, they throw out a bunch of different, even conflicting stories to see which one plays best before finalising their choice and saying something under their own names and not “sources”
Call me cynical, but of course the last name is Thompson. She wanted the alliteration for branding purposes. They’re all KK (kim, khloe, kourtney) and she took a page from the PMK playbook and went for TT. I’m sure there are already mock-up logos in the works. Tristan was a sperm donor for a jersey chaser. She gave up on actually having a lasting, healthy romantic relationship as did all of her siblings.
Don’t feel sorry for her. If she really wanted to keep this all quiet she could have. They put it out there so she needs to deal with what happens.
Uh, yeah Khlo. He’s *totally* going to settle down and change his ways now and stop serially cheating. That kid is totally going to anchor him, right?
You just keep living that dream, sis.
she’s on denial like the snapchat pic she post all the time
