AUGHT IN TING SCANDAL

K Khloé Kardashian

hloé Kardashian was having the time of her life. While attending comedian Kevin Hart and model Eniko Parrish’s star-studded Aug. 13 wedding and reception in California, the social media–obsessed reality star actually forgot to take pictures. “I had so much fun!!” she tweeted the next day. “When I’m having a ball, I forget about my phone.”

She was distracted by a man. Khloé, 32, met her new boyfriend, Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson, 25, at the Harts’ wedding. But he wasn’t there alone. “Tristan came with a date: his pregnant girlfriend, Jordan Craig, who’s the bride’s cousin,” an insider tells In Touch. “They’d been together for three-and-a-half years. They lived together in Cleveland. And Khloé knew that, but she didn’t care.”

Jordan is now eight months along. On Oct. 9, her friends and family posted photos on Instagram from her baby shower, revealing that Jordan, an Internet model and hair extension specialist, plans to name her unborn son Prince Oliver. “But Tristan is out of the picture now because of Khloé,” says a source. “It’s a messy situation.”

The pregnancy is what allegedly drove Tristan and Jordan apart. “He didn’t want a child yet. He was scared. But Jordan wanted to keep it,” says the insider. “Tristan was mad about the baby and left Jordan for Khloé. He and Jordan were still living together when Khloé opened her arms to him.” Many women would back away from a man who is expecting a baby with another woman. Not Khloé. “She will never leave Tristan because of some pregnant girl,” says the insider. (A source close to Khloé tells a different version of how Khloé and Tristan hooked up: “They met through friends and he was already broken up with Jordan,” insists the source. “She didn’t steal him.”)

Despite the scandal, Khloé and Tristan have been getting more and more serious. They’ve been photographed house-hunting in Beverly Hills, vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and just one day before Jordan’s baby shower, Khloé was spotted in Ohio cheering on Tristan’s Cavaliers team at a preseason NBA game. “She is head-over-heels in love with Tristan and wants this to work,” says the insider. “Even though he’s about to become a father, she thinks he’s the one.” ◼
