Khloé Kardashian Opens Up About Tristan Thompson’s Comment On Their Daughter’s Clothes

From infidelity to paternity scandals, it’s no secret that Khloé Kardashian and her ex Tristan Thompson have gone through public struggles during their former on-and-off relationship.

But despite all of the drama, the reality star has maintained that co–parenting with Thompson, the father of her children True and Tatum, has been relatively “seamless”.

Kardashian has been open about co-parenting with Thompson in the past. But in a new episode of her podcast Khloé in Wonder Land, the star got candid about how being a “co-parenter” can be hard emotionally at times and admitted that she can get “defensive” as a mum when she and Thompson have opposing opinions.

Kardashian then recalled an instance where the NBA star once questioned her over the length of seven-year-old True’s shorts.

“Tristan’s not wrong, but he’s like, ‘Don’t you think those shorts are too short on her?’” she explained during Wednesday’s episode. “You wanna almost be like, ‘Yeah, she’s my kid!’ But it’s our kid. You just want to have that ownership.”

Kardashian continued: “I’m like, ’Yes, they’re short, but we’re just hanging out at the house pool – because I will send pictures to him or whatever.”

In moments like those, Kardashian said she gives herself and the Canadian basketball player grace.

“You still wanna let your co-parenter be the parent as much as they want to. And you also have to give them grace [and] yourself grace,” she shared.

Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian first began dating in 2016.

Kardashian added: “Sometimes, you have to take a breath and be like, ‘It’s OK. He’s doing what’s right. Yes, the shorts are short, but we’re at home lounging, so let me explain the context of these photos.’”

Wrapping up her comments, Kardashian noted that her exchanges with Thompson can cause an “emotional battle” within herself.

“That is an emotional battle I have [with] myself. I can’t be like, ‘This is my kid.’ I have to allow for Tristan to be the dad, too,” she said.

Despite their occasional difference in parenting styles, the mum of two said elsewhere in the episode that there’s ultimately “no drama” when it comes to co-parenting with Thompson.

“Him and I are seamless co-parents. I’m really grateful for that,” she said. “Tristan trusts me as a mom, so I don’t get a lot of pushback … he just knows that I’m not going to do anything to harm the kids.”

Ed Sheeran Has 1 Bit Of Parenting Advice For First-Time Dads

Ed Sheeran has two young girls, and he’s got some advice for anyone about to be a first-time dad.

“I just think always be the one that makes the breakfast in the morning. Always be the one that gets up first and lets your partner have her lie-in and do the breakfast,” he said on last week’s episode of Kylie Kelce’s hit podcast, Not Gonna Lie.

“Because also, that’s the time of the day your kids are, uh, the least angry, because they’re rested and they wake up and it’s fun,” he said. “Your partner gets to have a lie-in, but also then you get the golden moments in the morning when your kids are like, calm and happy.”

Kelce chimed in and agreed with Sheeran’s assessment.

“I say it all the time. They’re their best selves in the morning,” the mum of four added. “They’re like sweet and cuddly, and their voices are like gentle.”

“They want to help out as well!” Sheeran said. “So I’m handing them plates, and they’re putting the plates away, and I’m like, you’re making my job easier. And also, we’re spending time together.”

The singer continued: “So yeah, I’d say always do the morning shift. I actually love the morning shift and the evening shift. Reading 40 different stories and having someone like, fall asleep on your shoulder is actually really lovely.”

Sheeran and his wife, Cherry Seaborn, have two girls: Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran, aged 4, and Jupiter Seaborn Sheeran, who is 3.

The Perfect musician has spoken about the ways that parenthood has changed him, calling fatherhood “the best thing that’s ever happened to me”.

“There’s so many different sides and shades to it,” the songwriter shared during SiriusXM Hits 1 interview in 2021. “You know, there’s difficult days, there’s amazing, easy days.”

He added: “It’s just a roller coaster of emotions. I know that sounds like a cliché thing to say, but it’s amazing. I love it.”
