- Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson are expecting another baby soon, a rep confirmed to Insider.
- The pair split in January after Thompson said he had fathered a baby with another woman.
Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson, who share a 4-year-old daughter named True, broke up earlier this year after Thompson confirmed he had fathered a child with another woman while still in a relationship with the reality star.
Now, news has broken that Kardashian and Thompson already conceived a second child together via surrogacy in November 2021 — two months before their split in 2022, and one month before Thompson's other baby was born in December.
"We can confirm True will have a sibling who was conceived in November," a representative for Kardashian told Insider. "Khloé is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We'd like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloe can focus on her family."
The baby was conceived before Kardashian learned Thompson had fathered a baby with another woman, according to a source.
Kardashian and Thompson first began dating in 2016, and in September 2017 fans learned that Kardashian was pregnant with the NBA star's baby. In the spring of 2018, days before Kardashian's due date, multiple videos of Thompson appearing to cheat on Kardashian were released online.
Kardashian gave birth to their daughter True Thompson on April 12, 2018.
The couple appeared to still be dating off and on until calling it quits in 2019, when Thompson reportedly kissed Kylie Jenner's best friend Jordyn Woods during a party.
Then in April 2020, Kardashian was seen on her family's reality show debating whether or not to have Thompson be her "sperm donor" for a second child. By August 2020, sources said the couple had gotten back together and were living together with their daughter, True, during the pandemic.
More than a year later, in December 2021, a fitness instructor named Maralee Nichols gave birth to a child she had conceived with Thompson during the time he was back together with Kardashian. As reported by Insider, "a paternity test confirmed that Thompson is the father of the fitness instructor's child, the athlete revealed in a statement he shared on his Instagram story."
We now know that Thompson and Kardashian had conceived their second child together via surrogate just weeks before Nichols' baby was born.
A source told Insider that Kardashian and Thompson are not back together, and have not spoken since December "outside of coparenting matters."
