Khloe Kardashian has hit back at trolls who criticised her for maintaining a close relationship with her cheating ex-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson.

The former couple began dating in 2016 and have two children together – True and Tatum Thompson. However, they ended their relationship in 2021 after it was revealed Tristan had fathered a child with another woman.

Despite the tumultuous end to their romance, Khloe has remained close to Tristan, a decision she defended on the latest episode of The Kardashians. The Good American founder also slammed those judging her for not dating since their split.

In a candid confessional, Khloe stated: “I feel like everyone has been really judgy about how I spend my time because I’m not dating, because I stopped dating Tristan when Tatum was in utero, so I don’t know, two and a half years or something of not dating is not that crazy.”

She added: “I do love that it’s good for the kids, but now that he’s in Cleveland, this is really, really healthy for us because when Tristan was next door he still was always over. He was like, ‘I wanna put the kids to sleep,’ like he loved the routine.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Khloe met up with Scott Disick at his mansion. During their chat, Khloe shared how exhaustion often prevents her from dating.

She explained: “Once I’m done with the kids at nine, I have limited time. I have to be up at 4.30. 9pm to 4.30am, that’s my time. I’m not sharing it with a man, I’m not sharing my TV, I’m not sharing my bed.”

When Scott inquired about any potential reconciliation with Tristan, Khloe firmly responded with a “no”. In a confessional, she elaborated: “This is life, we all gotta grow up and move on.”

Scott commended Khloe on her effective co-parenting with Tristan, remarking: “That’s great that you’re like super friendly.” Khloe responded: “Yeah, I’m not… What am I gonna be a monster for?”
