Are Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson back together? All we know amid huge change to family dyna
Are Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson – the father of her two children – rekindling their romance?
The notoriously on-again, off-again couple, who were first linked to each other in 2016, seem to be making amends, after their last break-up was revealed at the end of last year on Hulu's The Kardashians, which centered around the NBA player secretly welcoming a child from an affair with Maralee Nichols.
It was later revealed that Khloe learned of the baby and the affair around the time she had started a second pregnancy via surrogacy with Tristan. Since then, they have welcomed a baby son, though they have only shared that his name starts with a T.

Aside from his two kids with Khloe and his son with Maralee, Theo – he was born December 1 – he also shares son Prince Oliver, born in December 2016, with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig.
Though neither Tristan nor Khloe have confirmed they are back together, many fans have speculated so – and wondered if their reunion will play out on The Kardashians – after frequent social media and IRL appearances together, plus especially after his latest career move. Most recently, fans are convinced they can see Tristan in the back of Khloe's Easter Sunday photos on Instagram.

The Lakers announced the news on their Instagram Monday, sharing a black and white photo of Tristan donning a bright yellow Lakers jersey. "OFFICIAL: Tristan Thompson and Shaquille Harrison are Los Angeles Lakers," they wrote.
Khloe appeared to be eager of his move closer to her and their family, and subtly supported him by way of a like on the post.
Tristan is now a part of a team that has claimed some of the most famous basketball players as part of their roster. LeBron James, of course, is the team's star player, and former team players include the late Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
