Khloe Kardashian finally made mention of cheating ex Tristan Thompson’s son Theo who he fathered during an illicit tryst with Maralee Nichols in 2021.

The reality star, 39, who welcomed son Tatum with Thompson, 32,  just seven months after Theo’s birth, spoke about infidelity and her ex’s desire to resolve his issues with her family members  in Wednesday’s episode of The Kardashians.

She said: ‘In this family, if you do something to one of us, it affects everyone and they’re entitled to their feelings. It’s not some small thing that happened

He replied: ‘No, I hear you.’ as Kardashian said: ‘Time has gone by. It’s done.

‘My son is here, your other son is here and some of their emotions have settled down — not forgotten, not forgiven, any of that — just settled down.’

Comment: Khloe Kardashian finally made mention of cheating ex Tristan Thompson’s son Theo who he fathered during an illicit tryst with Maralee Nichols in 2021

Nearly two: Unbeknownst to Khloe, Tristan had impregnated Maralee in March 2021 and he was informed of her pregnancy as early as July 2021 (Maralee pictured with Theo who will turn two next month)

Unbeknownst to Khloe, Tristan had impregnated Maralee in March 2021 and he was informed of her pregnancy as early as July 2021.

Despite knowing he had a baby on the way with another woman, Tristan kept the news from Khloe and encouraged her to continue on with their surrogacy journey.

An embryo transfer was successfully completed in November 2021, just one week before DailyMail.com would exclusively reveal that Tristan was expecting a child with Maralee – who gave birth to Theo in December 2021.

Though he initially denied being the child’s father, Tristan took to Instagram in January 2022 to confirm that he’d taken a paternity test and was in fact Theo’s dad. He also stated that he planned to ‘amicably’ co-parent with Maralee.

Tristan issued an apology to Khloe, whom he has cheated on numerous times in the past, including while she was pregnant with their daughter True in 2018.

Back in March Kardashian was blasted on social media for  praising Thompson for his parenting skills — despite the serial cheater allegedly shunning his one-year-old son born following an illicit hotel fling.

The outcry stemmed from The Kardashian’s star, wishing the NBA player a happy 32nd birthday and sharing photos that displayed their newborn son’s face for the very first time.

Kardashian bestowed the title of ‘best father’ on Tristan as she shared snaps of him doting on their two children – daughter True, four, and the baby boy whose name they have yet to reveal.

‘What about little Theo?’: In March  Kardashian was slammed after posting this photo of  Thompson with three of his four children daughter True, four, son Tatum, one and son Prince, six – the child he shares with ex Jordan Craig

Khloe and Tristan conceived their newest addition via a surrogate, but they broke up before he was born after it was revealed that Tristan had fathered a baby boy named Theo with Nichols, 31. 

The NBA star’s relationship with Theo appears to be nonexistent, prompting Twitter to go nuclear at Kardashian and ask: ‘Good father? What about little Theo?’

One twitter user captioned the comical expression of a bewildered toddler with: ‘@khloekardashian how can Tristan be the best father if he has abandoned one of his children?!’

Another critic compared the former couple’s cringeworthy relationship history to ‘humiliation kink,’ while someone else chimed in with: ‘Not @khloekardashian calling Tristan best dad [laughing emoji] the world really coming to an end.’

One troll did offer the reality star some helpful advice, tweeting: ‘Khloe Kardashian. You better turn them comments off on your Insta post about Tristan being a good dad. You forgot about that new baby huh!!?? He hasn’t even met that one!!

Khloe took that bit of advice and turned off her Instagram comments, but the negative reactions kept spreading across Twitter: ‘@khloekardashian Tristan isn’t a good father. He has another kid that he hasn’t even met yet. Please be foreal. You’re out of touch.’

Nichols seemingly responded to the uproar in a subtle way when she posted a heartwarming picture to her Instagram Story that showed her cuddling the adorable little boy.

Outcry: The NBA star’s relationship with Theo appears to be nonexistent, prompting Twitter to go nuclear at Kardashian and ask: ‘Good father? What about little Theo?

Khloe’s controversial post appeared to allude to Tristan’s various infidelities, as Khloe described hoping that he would continue to ‘crave change, healing and transformation’ in the future.

She also referenced his late mother Andrea Thompson, who recently passed from a heart attack. ‘Continue to Make your soul and your mommy proud,’ Khloe posted.

The full post began: ‘Happy birthday @realtristan13. You are truly the best father, brother & uncle. Your love, attention, silly dances, hugs, carpool rides, bed time rituals, the way u show up for them.

‘All of the above means more than you’ll ever know to your family of littles. My birthday wish for u is that u continue to crave change, healing, and transformation.

‘Be strong, be kind, be patient, be free. Continue to Make your soul and your mommy proud. Happy birthday baby daddy.’

The second season of The Kardashians began with Khloe welcoming her second child with Tristan via surrogate, though it was revealed in the second episode that the premiere episode was actually filmed in August 2022 while the rest of the season takes place several months earlier.

The first season ended with the bombshell revelation that Tristan had fathered a child with another woman, that woman being Maralee.

Doomed romance: Khloe and Tristan began dating in 2016 while his ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig was pregnant with their now five-year-old son Prince. His public cheating scandals initially broke just days before Kardashian welcomed their first child together (pictured 2018)

Khloe and Tristan began dating in 2016 while his ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig was pregnant with their now five-year-old son Prince. His public cheating scandals initially broke just days before Kardashian welcomed their first child together, daughter True Thompson, in 2018.

Despite the public cheating, the couple reconciled and stayed together, until their split in February 2019 after he was seen kissing Kylie Jenner’s then-BFF Jordyn Woods.

To fans’ dismay, Khloe got back together with the athlete sometime during the COVID-19 pandemic while quarantining at Khloe’s Hidden Hills home. They have since broken up following the paternity scandal.
