Khloe Kardashian has been slammed by fans after joking brother Rob Kardashian was the father of her son Tatum.
The 39-year-old and ex Tristan Thompson welcomed Tatum in 2022, and the Good American founder opted to use a surrogate to extend her family, as the former couple were already parents to daughter True, 5. However, she panicked over a possible mix-up at the surrogacy agency when she realised Tatum didn’t look like her or his basketball player father.
Speaking on the SHE MD podcast with Dr. Thais Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney, Khloe confessed she went to extreme measures to ensure there was medical evidence that Tatum was hers. “I made Tristan do three DNA tests for Tatum. He was so offended, she recalled. “My son looks just like my brother. Because he was an IVF baby or a surrogate baby, I was like, ‘Rob, have you ever donated sperm somewhere?’”

She worried there had been a mix-up as she claimed Tatum didn't look like her or Tristan (khloekardashian/Instagram)Khloe laughed: “In this family, that would not surprise me, but that would be so disgusting. But I remember she [her doctor] was like, ‘You’ve already done a DNA test!’ I go, ‘I need to do another one, I need to figure it out.’” The mother-of-two said her younger brother Rob has a “freaking weird” resemblance to her 21-month-old son, and even several of Khloe’s family members, including mother Kris Jenner, have pointed out the youngster looks like his uncle Rob.

Fans were stunned by Khloe’s astonishing admission during her appearance on the podcast, with many taking to X/Twitter to call out the reality star. “I beg your finest pardon?” one tweeted, as another added: “Is this not insane ??? No way this is real.” While one commented: “Now why would you tell people this???”

Despite his multiple infidelities, Khloe firmly believes he’s a “nice guy”, but insisted they would never get back together. “He made mistake, but he's the nicest guy. And we get along so well now. We're not meant to be together, but he was meant to be the father of these kids,” she explained.
The 33-year-old Cleveland Cavaliers player is father to sons Prince, 7, Theo, 2, and Tatum, 21 months, as well as his and Khloe’s eldest daughter True, 5. “I've seen some other fathers that are not great fathers. I'm very grateful that I have one that wants to be in their lives, that's active every single day even though he doesn't live here full time,” she shared.
