Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson fueled further reconciliation rumors when they picked up multiple meals from a McDonald’s drive-thru in Rialto, California, on Tuesday.
The reality star, 38, and the NBA player, 32, who split in 2021 after Tristan fathered a child while in a relationship with Khloe, looked happy as they picked up their food while sitting in the front seat together.

Last month, Khloe was blasted on social media for praising her ex-partner for his parenting skills — despite the serial cheater reportedly shunning the son he fathered with Maralee Nichols behind Khloe’s back.
Kardashian bestowed the title of “dear dad” on Tristan when she shared snaps of him doting on their two kids in a heartfelt birthday tribute — sparking speculation the couple had reconciled.
With the athlete’s relationship with son Theo seemingly non-existent, countless Twitter users went nuclear to Kardashian and asked, “Good dad? And little Theo?’
A Twitter user captioned the comical expression of a stunned toddler with, “@khloekardashian how can Tristan be the best dad when he’s abandoned one of his kids?!”
Another critic compared the former couple’s chilling relationship history to “humiliation kink,” while another chimed in: “Not @khloekardashian calling Tristan best dad [laughing emoji] the world is really ending.’
A troll did give the reality star helpful advice by tweeting, “Khloe Kardashian. Better put those comments out on your Insta post about Tristan being a good dad. You forgot about that new baby huh!!?? He hasn’t even met him yet!!
Khloe took that advice to heart and turned off her Instagram comments, but the negative comments continued to spread across Twitter: “@khloekardashian Tristan is not a good dad. He has another child he hasn’t even met yet. Please be careful. You’re out of touch.’
Theo’s mom Maralee Nichols seemingly subtly responded to the uproar when she posted a heartwarming photo to her Instagram story that showed her cuddling the adorable little boy.

Khloe previously revealed she felt “numb” after her older sister Kim told her the heartbreaking news about Tristan’s secret child.
