Khloe Kardashian was seen being a supportive co-parent to her ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson, with whom she shares her two kids, True, and Tatum.

The TV personality took her kids to Cleveland, Ohio to witness their dad play in an NBA game. Thompson, a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers, competed against the Boston Celtics in a playoff game on Monday, May 13.

Khloe and Tristan's relationship has been a rollercoaster, marked by numerous highs and lows, notably marred by Tristan's involvement in multiple cheating scandals. Their journey began in 2016 when they first crossed paths. However, amidst Khloe's pregnancy with True, shocking revelations emerged of Tristan's infidelity with multiple women. Despite the turmoil, Khloe chose to continue their relationship after giving birth to True in April 2017.

The saga continued in February 2019, when news surfaced of Tristan kissing Khloe's sister Kylie Jenner's best friend, Jordyn Woods. Despite this setback, Khloe eventually forgave him, and they reconciled.

They then embarked on the surrogate process for a second child in 2021. Unbeknownst to Khloe, their surrogate was already pregnant when yet another cheating scandal came to light, this time involving a woman who was pregnant herself. Shockingly, Tristan knew of the situation as he was going through the surrogate process with Khloe.

"I find out what Tristan is doing with the rest of the world. A courtesy would be not doing it. But fine, if you do it, you are not even going to give me a f–king heads-up before the rest of the world?" she told the cameras on an episode of The Kardashians. "It is just an additional slap in my face. It is humiliating. I am embarrassed. I would prefer to be alone than to be around people."

After all that, Khloe now has a healthy relationship with him. "My ex Tristan is an incredible father... and we get along so well now," Khloé shared on the SHE MD podcast this month. She said that although they aren't "meant to be together" as a couple, she feels "he was meant to be the father of these kids."
