KHLOE Kardashian is ‘secretly getting back together with ex Tristan Thompson’, fear her friends.
The star, 38, was spotted with the father of her two children after the death of his mother last week - now friends worry she’s taking him back again.
Khloe and Tristan, 31, split up in December 2021 - after Khloe found out he’d fathered a child with fitness trainer Maralee Nichols, 31, behind her back.
Khloe’s devastation and heartbreak played out on the last season of The Kardashians, as they welcomed their second child together, a boy, via surrogate last August.
But Khloe joined basketball player Tristan on a trip to Toronto, Canada, last week after the sudden death of his mother, Andrea, from a heart attack.

“Khloe, as with any of the family in these situations, will be supportive to Tristan and by his side during this very difficult time as he is the father of her two children,” a source told The U.S. Sun.
And the trip has sparked fears that Khloe is considering taking back Tristan again - despite his repeated cheating scandals.
“Everyone thinks they’re back together - but if you ask her, she says they are just co-parents and nothing more,” says a friend of Khloe’s.
“They are always together, and very much a unit - she tries to put it down to the fact they have two children together, and as such are best friends, but it's obvious now that it's more than that.
“Otherwise she would not be by his side on this trip, acting like she’s his ‘other half’.”
The friend adds: “I don’t think she’ll admit it yet - it makes her look weak taking him back after he humiliated her so badly before.”
Former Chicago Bulls player Tristan started dating Khloe in 2016, and they had their first child True in 2018.
However, in 2019, Tristan was accused of cheating with Kylie Jenner’s friend Jordyn Woods - but was back together with Khloe in 2020.
They started trying for a second baby via surrogate the following year, but Tristan was accused of cheating several times - and in June that year, trainer Maralee gave birth to their son, Theo.
After a paternity test proved Tristan was the father in January 2022, and he was ordered to pay $40k a month child support, he and Khloe split again.
