Khloe Kardashian shared a cryptic quote on her Instagram story this Friday, in an effort to spark fans’ suspicion.
The 38-year-old recently denied the “lies” that she is back together with her serially unfaithful ex Tristan Thompson, with whom she shares two children.
She last split with Tristan in mid-2021, and a year later it emerged that he had fathered a baby with another woman named Maralee Nichols after rekindling with the reality star.
By the time Nichols and Tristan’s son, Theo, was born in late 2021, Khloe and Tristan’s surrogate was already pregnant with their own new son, Tatum.
Ostensibly nodding to overcome the drama, the TV personality shared a quote that read, “The real flex is allowing God to heal you without becoming like those who hurt you.”

Another meme she shared that day read, “As you get older you really just want to be surrounded by good people. People who are good for you, good for you and good for your soul,’ and concluded with peace of mind.
The posts come after Khloe furiously dismissed a spate of fan rumors that she and Tristan had decided to rekindle their relationship.
Khloe’s big sister Kim Kardashian had been spotted attending Tristan’s NBA games, leading gossip page DeuxMoi to hint at a reconciliation.
“He’s reportedly back with Koko, so maybe she’s launching the idea gently so everyone’s prepared and doesn’t give Koko a hard time,” DeuxMoi claimed.
When a fan account on Instagram got wind of the rumor and posted it, Khloe fired off a lengthy comment denying that she and Tristan are back in business.
“Stop pushing this story. It is tiring. But I assume you’ll continue with the story you want regardless of what I say, so what’s the point. It’s exhausting, but I’ve learned that people only understand it at the level of their own perception,” she wrote.
“Most get stuck believing the lies because it’s the story they want to fuel. Have fun…. Some things are as simple as they seem. A family member supporting another family member, ESPECIALLY at a difficult time in life.”
Tristan lost his mom in January — and in a show by their enduring bond, Khloe, Kim, and their mom Kris Jenner accompanied him to Vancouver for the funeral.

In her new Instagram comment, Khloe cited the example of her sister Kourtney Kardashian’s ex, Scott Disick, with whom Kourtney shares three children.
Khloe commented “how I support Scott and will forever support him. He is my brother. It’s just not on an NBA stage. Sad new world, if there are no pictures people think it really didn’t happen, but yes, I see Scott often. Some things really are the way they are.’
Tristan and Khloe’s five-year on-off relationship ended for the last time in 2021, and in December, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that the NBA star had fathered a child with personal trainer Maralee Nichols while still involved with Khloe.
The duo dated sporadically between 2016 and 2021, despite the relationship being rocked by the sportsman’s repeated cheating.
Along with baby Tatum, the couple share a five-year-old daughter named True, who they welcomed into the world in April 2018.
Less than 48 hours before True was born, DailyMail.com brought exclusive news about Tristan’s alleged affair with New York strip club bartender Lani Blair.
He and Khloe then stayed together, but split in 2019 after Tristan shared a kiss at a party with Kylie Jenner’s then-best friend Jordyn Woods.
When the coronavirus lockdowns hit, Tristan and Khloe moved in together so they could both be with True – and their romance was eventually rekindled as well.

Reports of their latest split began circulating in June 2021 when Tristan found himself denying a swirl of rumors about his allegiance.
Subsequently, in late 2021, DailyMail.com exclusively obtained court documents alleging that Tristan had a baby from Maralee.
Maralee gave birth on Dec. 1 and released a statement a few weeks later along with her son’s first public photos.
Tristan started his Instagram in January 2022 and first confessed to being the father of Maralee’s baby, after establishing the fact through a paternity test.
Khloe unleashed a furious rant against her ex on the season finale of The Kardashians, which aired last June, after learning about Tristan and Maralee’s baby.
She made the shocking discovery about Tristan when her sister Kim Kardashian, 41, read a story on DailyMail.com that exclusively revealed the news that the former NBA player had admitted fathering a child in court documents.
An emotional Khloe burst into tears as she slammed Tristan for “humiliating” her with another public scandal.
“I called him and was like, What do you have to say? It was more yelling on my part, but he talked and tried to argue his case. I don’t think there’s much to talk about,” Khloe said later in the episode.

“It’s a joke, it’s gross, it’s a joke, it’s embarrassing, it’s disgusting, we’re done with it. I’m like, I didn’t buy tickets to this goddamn circus, but somehow I’m watching all these clowns perform for me,” she added.
“I want money back, return to sender, I don’t want to be on this show. Somehow the clowns keep coming back in this goddamn clown car and no matter what he says, nothing is going to give me the answers I’m looking for, the closure.”
Khloe first got involved with Tristan when his ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig was still pregnant with his oldest son Prince, six.
While Jordan claimed she was still with Tristan when he started dating Khloe, the reality star has maintained that she thought he was single at the time.
