Khloé Kardashian on Kim Kardashian and Tristan Thompson Hooking Up
Khloé Kardashian welcomed two children with ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson.
The surprising topic came up during the debut episode of Hulu’s The Girls, per People.
The new reality show focuses on some of the closest friends of the Kardashian brood, like Yris Palmer, Nicole Williams English, Khadijah, Olivia Pierson, Malika Haqq and Natalie Halcro.
During the episode, Olivia was discussing an incident where she went on a blind date with Yris’ ex-husband.
Per Olivia, she remembered thinking at the time, “[That’s] Yris’ ex. I don’t go there.”
Khadijah pointed out that she already had “permission to go there,” as Yris was the one to set up the date.
Khloé Kardashian commented that if she gave 'permission' to Kim Kardashian to hook up with Tristan Thompson, she wouldn't be bitter about it.
“I wouldn’t care if Kim hooked up with Tristan,” Khloé piped in.
“If I gave permission, I give permission. The baton is passed,” she added.
Malika interjected that the idea of Kim getting involved with Tristan, who happens to be the father of Khloé’s children, is “a little gross.”
“Well, I’m not saying that actually,” the 42-year-old clarified.
“I’m just saying, when you’re really like — that chapter is closed, I have love and respect and you have a great relationship — I wanna see you happy, so I want you with the best person that I could think of,” she explained.

Khloé Kardashian Said Her Past Struggles Prepared Her For the Scandals in Her Relationships
Khloé Kardashian admitted that her divorce from Lamar Odom prepared her for her struggles later in life.
Khloé reflected on her relationship with Tristan in an episode of her podcast “Khloé in Wonder Land” in July 2025.
According to her, her divorce from Lamar Odom prepared her for the fallout from her split from Tristan.
“Going through such a public divorce and handling that — and, yes, it was between him and I and it was a great love that was now lost, and that whole thing — it was so public. So public that I’ve never dealt with something like that before. But I dealt with it, and I had my family’s support and all of that,” she said.
Khloé Kardashian said she dealt with the public scrutiny during her split from Tristan Thompson the best way she could.
“That was sort of a stepping stone, if you will, for the next big traumatic thing that happened to me, [which] was when Tristan cheated on me right before I gave birth,” the mom-of-two continued.
“Obviously, no one can prepare you for something like that. And it wasn’t the cheating that’s like, ‘Ugh.’ People get cheated on. It’s more that I was nine months pregnant — I was having a baby two days later — and it was so public, and it was everywhere,” she added.
“But I think I handled it the best that I knew how because I almost got a little experience of it, or a lot of experience of it, from my divorce with Lamar. So it sort of prepared me,” she said in conclusion.
