He’s still courting her, but new guy is a slam dunk
HORNDOG hoopster Tristan Thompson is shooting for another chance at romance with baby mama Khloé Kardashian — but the reality babe has moved on with a new beau, tipsters spill. The Kardashians cutie,
37, was caught on camera giving her former flame, 31, an awkward one-armed hug during a June 18 outing in Calabasas with their daughter, True, 4. But insiders say she has no intention of making up with the skirt-chasing scoundrel — because she’s being courted by a big-bucks businessman!
According to sources,
Khloé’s sibling Kim introduced her to the private equity investor, and her blossoming relationship with the dude — who she won’t identify — has only made her love rat ex more desperate to lure her back!
“Tristan is swearing he’s changed and begging for one last trial period — or at least a no-strings arrangement, so they can take the pressure off and learn to enjoy themselves together again,” squeals an insider. “Khloé has told him a hundred times to forget it and just be grateful she’s willing to coparent in a civil fashion. She loves him, but she doesn’t trust him. She can’t forget the past.”
The NBA player was caught canoodling with multiple women in the weeks before the fashion designer gave birth to True in April 2018. The very next year, he was also accused of having a fling with Jordyn Woods — the best friend of her half-sister Kylie Jenner.
Tristan and Khloé’s on-again, off-again romance finally went up in flames when he fathered son Theo with fitness model Maralee Nichols in 2021! “Khloé’s given him so many chances already — only to be let down. She doesn’t want her heart stomped on again,” says the insider. “But Tristan is Tristan. He’s convinced Khloé will eventually give in if he keeps at it — and it’s messing with her head, big-time!”
