Khloe Kardashian admits she may be open to taking Tristan Thompson back at some point – but not now – insisting she’s ‘not attracted’ to him anymore on the new episode of The Kardashians.

Khloe told Malika Haqq, ‘In an ideal world, I wish I was married and that, you know, we had our family together, like that’s what everyone wants, but I’m not attracted to Tristan… like I’m not like…’ as Malika says, ‘Wow. That’s a big say. You’re still attracted to him…’

The 39-year-old Khloe and 32-year-old Tristan share five-year-old True and one-year-old son Tatum together, though Khloe finally called it quits after numerous infidelities.

Khloe benevolently let Tristan and his teenaged special needs brother Amari stay at her home after Tristan’s mother Andrea suddenly passed, and the roof caved in on his house, though it was revealed on this week’s episode that Tristan has moved back into his own home.

At the end of this week’s episode, Khloe has lunch with her longtime friend Malika Haqq, who, like Khloe’s mother Kris Jenner and others, have suggested she get back together with him to ‘save your family.’

While Khloe made it clear she has no interest in taking Tristan back in the immediate future, she wouldn’t rule it out indefinitely.

Khloe Kardashian doesn’t rule out taking Tristan Thompson back

Malika asks, ‘So it’s not never?’ hinting there might be a chance she’d let Tristan back into her life romantically.

‘I don’t know, I don’t know what it is, it’s definitely not now,’ Khloe says with a sigh, as the episode comes to an end.

Khloe and Malika enjoyed a meal at Il Fornaio when Malika asked if she has any ‘joy’ in her life, which Khloe said she did, and it came from her kids.

‘Yeah, when I see my kids,’ Khloe says, as Malika asks if Tristan is still at her house.

‘No, he has moved into his home,’ she tells Malika, while adding in confession, ‘Tristan has officially now moved out and he is at his home, a block away from mine. Tristan just like walks over to do carpool in the morning with the kids, like he’s still very much there, and me and Tristan never shared a bedroom or anything like that, so it’s sort of the same thing, but he’s at a different house. Once the kids are asleep, he goes to his house and I stay at mine.’

Malika says, ‘He didn’t wanna go,’ as Khloe admits, ‘No, I didn’t think he wanted to go, but his house flooded, his mom just passed away, and when all of that happened, obviously I was like, OK, we got this, like you move in here and it just kept taking longer and longer, how long they were there for, which was fine. It was so good for him and True, so good for him and Tatum, all of that. It was interesting for him and I because prior to that, Tristan and I were barely talking and then I was just thinking, how do I like, how do we go back to normal now?’

Malika adds, ‘I would really like for us to do something fun together. I think we should go to Home Goods. I think we should go to Target. I think we should go to the Four Seasons, have lunch, get a massage, then I think we should go out. You need to do a little bit more for you. You’re like the life of the party.’

‘I’m still the life of the party,’ Khloe insists, as Malika asks, ‘What party? What party do you go to? You have to go to a party.’

Not never: Malika asks, ‘So it’s not never?’ hinting there might be a chance she’d let Tristan back into her life romantically

Don’t know: ‘I don’t know, I don’t know what it is, it’s definitely not now,’ Khloe says with a sigh, as the episode comes to an end

Kids: ‘Yeah, when I see my kids,’ Khloe says, as Malika asks if Tristan is still at her house

Moved home: ‘No, he has moved into his home,’ she tells Malika, while adding in confession, ‘Tristan has officially now moved out and he is at his home, a block away from mine. Tristan just like walks over to do carpool in the morning with the kids, like he’s still very much there, and me and Tristan never shared a bedroom or anything like that, so it’s sort of the same thing, but he’s at a different house.

Fun: Malika adds, ‘I would really like for us to do something fun together. I think we should go to Home Goods. I think we should go to Target. I think we should go to the Four Seasons, have lunch, get a massage, then I think we should go out. You need to do a little bit more for you. You’re like the life of the party’

‘One day you have to get back out there,’ Malika says, as Khloe insists, ‘And I will, it’s just right now, I’m so f***ing overwhelmed with just life.’

‘You have to practice the thing you want to become eventually. After awhile, you start to go, you know what, I can do all of these things and still do some things to make Khloe smile and give me something else to talk about outside of my kids and Tristan and Amari and tragedy and all the… like you’ve gotta give yourself something else.’

Khloe adds in confession, ‘I really appreciate how much people want me to get out and socialize and leave my house. I know it makes me sound like a crazy person, but that’s not what is best for me right now. Like, where am I even going? What do you guys want me to do? What’s out there? I don’t think anything that great, not right now.’

Khloe explains to Malika, ‘My mom called me over to her house and we were just chatting about a bunch of things and she was like, ‘Don’t get mad, I just wanna talk to you,’ and I typically know that’s something about either why am I such a recluse or like my romantic life.’

Malika adds, ‘It’s interesting that people keep saying that to you. It’s interesting.’

‘I mean I love my mom for so many reasons but one of the main things that it’s so beautiful about her is how forgiving she is and how a lot of us are in my family, but her specifically for being a mom, but if someone did what Tristan did to my daughter, I would probably castrate them, and smile doing it,’ Khloe tells Malika.

‘What happened between me and Tristan, I’ve been cheated on by many people, I’ve dealt with it, I’ve got it. This other situation was the most wild thing and it’s not only finding out he had someone else pregnant, but while I secretly had my own surrogate pregnant, never in a million years would I have been… like I would have thought that. Cut to, then this whole year goes by, my son’s not even one yet, and look how much has changed. I didn’t speak to Tristan at all for six months, not even about the kids, but like now look. Now we’re back to being really good friends. Like I wanna date someone. Not now, I’m exhausted,’ Khloe tells Malika.

Khloe adds in confession, ‘What do they say, to get over somebody, you have to get under somebody else? Like I’m sure that’s obviously a really easy route, and you’re definitely distracting yourself as to what you need healing from. Someone’s form of healing is not my form of healing, and that’s not right or wrong. But I just need to do what speaks to my soul, and if I felt like going out, if I felt like dating, and if I was open to that right now, I would do it. There’s nothing holding me back, I just genuinely don’t have these feelings right now.’

Practice: ‘One day you have to get back out there,’ Malika says, as Khloe insists, ‘And I will, it’s just right now, I’m so f***ing overwhelmed with just life’

Practice: Practice: ‘You have to practice the thing you want to become eventually. After awhile, you start to go, you know what, I can do all of these things and still do some things to make Khloe smile and give me something else to talk about outside of my kids and Tristan and Amari and tragedy and all the… like you’ve gotta give yourself something else’

Appreciate: Khloe adds in confession, ‘I really appreciate how much people want me to get out and socialize and leave my house. I know it makes me sound like a crazy person, but that’s not what is best for me right now. Like, where am I even going? What do you guys want me to do? What’s out there? I don’t think anything that great, not right now’

Back at dinner, Khloe says, ‘But I wanna date people, I think? And see what’s out there. I want to feel proud when I go into a room and I’m with my man and I don’t think everyone’s laughing at me for being a weak bitch for staying with someone.’

Malika says, ‘You are the furthest from a weak woman. It takes a very strong woman to forgive people. It takes a very strong woman to be hurt multiple times by the same person and still smile in their face. There’s nothing weak about that. I don’t care what anybody says.’

Khloe says, ‘No, I know he’s a very handsome… no no no, he’s so handsome, he’s a beautiful statue of a human, but I can’t think about like kissing him on the lips, like none of that would… it’s just not in my wheelhouse.’

Malika adds, ‘Maybe think about it this way. Maybe you might wanna try to save your family. Maybe you might want to give this a shot despite…’

Khloe adds, ‘But I’ve tried to save my family a couple times, and, you wanna make God laugh, tell him your plans. Guess what buddy, I’ve got no more plans. Stop laughing at me. I just want like my life a little bit.’

Tristan has been accused of repeatedly cheating on Khloe over the years and infamously hooked up with Kylie Jenner’s best friend Jordyn Woods in 2019.

Tristan rekindled his on-and-off relationship with Khloe, but the pair split again in 2022 when it was revealed that he had secretly fathered a child with Maralee Nicholls while he was expecting a child with the Good American co-founder via surrogate.
