Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian have been in an on-and-off relationship for years. The pair started dating in 2016 and welcomed their first daughter True Thompson in 2018. Then they split in 2019 amidst allegations of the NBA veteran cheating on the reality TV star. Despite this, the two remained close friends.
