Khloé Kardashian holds a stance of respect towards Kourtney Kardashian’s discomfort with Tristan Thompson. An insider revealed to Us Weekly that Khloé acknowledges her sister’s sentiments and refrains from persuading her to accept Tristan. Despite wishing for a different scenario, Khloé recognizes that the dynamics are beyond her influence.
Kourtney, at 44, expressed on the November 2 episode of “The Kardashians” that Thompson’s presence provokes discomfort, a sentiment echoed by her 11-year-old daughter, Penelope. Kourtney shared that both she and Penelope experience moments of intense reaction to Thompson due to his past infidelities with Khloé.
The source emphasized Khloé’s understanding of the protective nature Kourtney exhibits, valuing it as a sign of love. Khloé hopes for a future shift in Kourtney’s perspective.
Khloé and Thompson, who have had an intermittent relationship from 2016 to 2021, co-parent their children, True and Tatum. Despite the turbulence, including a public cheating scandal and a paternity lawsuit involving Thompson, Khloé has achieved a peaceful co-parenting arrangement.
Khloé expressed pride in her co-parenting relationship with Thompson but supports Penelope’s right to her own feelings. She advocates for Penelope’s emotional honesty and does not wish to condone Thompson’s past behavior.
While Penelope and Kourtney maintain their distance, other family members like Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian have shown support for Thompson in the same episode.
