Thursday’s episode of The Kardashians captured the moment that the family first learned about Tristan Thompson’s paternity scandal.


Khloé Kardashian’s sisters were infuriated by Tristan Thompson and made it very clear on how disappointed they were with him. The NBA player fathered a child with Maralee Nichols in 2021, even though he was still in a relationship with Khloé at that time.

“This whole declaration is in this thing,” Kim told Kris. “It’s this whole thing that says, ‘I, Tristan Thompson, met this girl in Houston. I slept with her on my 30th birthday.’ So I sent it to him and said, ‘Does Khloé know about this?’ Khloé doesn’t even f—ing know.”

Their conversation was then interrupted by Kylie Jenner, who called her older sister because she was concerned about the news. “You’re lying,” the 24-year-old said, to which Kim angrily responded, “No, I’m not f—ing lying. I’m shaking for her. My soul dies for her.”

“Is Tristan like, the worst person on the planet?” Kylie asked.

“This is paperwork that he’s filed that says, ‘The only time I had sexual intercourse with the petitioner’ — which is the girl — ‘was in March 2021 in Houston, Texas. The petitioner claims she is pregnant with my child and that she is due December 3. However, petitioner does not recall when I had sexual intercourse with her. Therefore, I do not know if the claims that I am the father of the child are supported by fact.’ “

“He’s saying that he slept with her!” Kim exclaimed, before merging sister Kourtney Kardashian onto the phone call. “He’s asking for a paternity test and admitting he had sex with her. Khloé threw him his 30th birthday party. He went home from the 30th birthday party, went to Houston to play on the road — we can check his schedule — and then slept with this girl.”

Khloé has also spoken about filming the paternity news, telling USA Today that the moment “was hard” to go through and felt like “déjà vu,” referencing Tristan’s other cheating scandals.

Tristan Thompson has become more known for his constant cheating on Khloe than his actual NBA career. The average fan can’t even name the team he is playing on at this moment.

The 31-year-old Thompson, an 11-year NBA veteran, averaged 6.2 points and 5.1 rebounds for the Sacramento Kings, Indiana Pacers and Chicago Bulls this year. He signed with the Bulls on Feb. 19 after agreeing to a contract buyout with the Pacers.
