Khloé Kardashianwants people to stop talking about her relationship status with ex-loveTristan Thompson.
TheGood Americanco-founder, 38, slammed fans for speculating that the pair are back together in a comment on Instagram Wednesday, calling the whole thing “exhausting.”
“Stop pushing this narrative. It’s tiring,” Khloé added in response to a fan page screenshot from celebrity gossip account Deux Moi that read, “Kim supporting Tristan at the Lakers game… what is going on? 🫠.”
“Allegedly he’s back with Koko so maybe she’s soft launching the idea so everyone is prepared & doesn’t give Koko a hard time,” read the fansite’s speculation.
“I suppose you guys will continue the narrative you want regardless of what I say so what’s the point. It’s exhausting but I learned people will only understand to the level of their own perception. Most are stuck at believing the lies because it’s the narrative they want to fuel. Have fun….”
Khloé then noted that Kim, 42, was simply “supporting” Thompson at the game during a “difficult” period, perhaps alluding to the NBA starlosing his mother Andreain January.
“Some things are just as simple as they seem. A family member supporting another family member ESPECIALLY during a difficult time in life,” she wrote, before going on to compare Kim’s support to her close bond with her sisterKourtney Kardashian Barker’s exScott Disick. “Example….. just how I support Scott and will forever support him. He’s my brother,” she continued.

“It’s just not on an nba stage. Sad new world, If there’s no photos people think it really didn’t happen but yes, I see Scott often. Some things really are just as they are. ❤️.”
Khloé shares two children with Thompson — daughterTrue, 5, anda son who was born last Augustvia surrogate. Thompson is also dad to sonPrince, 6, who he shares with his exJordan Craig, and a son called Theo withMaralee Nichols, who arrived last January.

“Khloé is supportive of Tristan joining the L.A. Lakers. She wants him to have a career,” a second source told PEOPLE. “Having Tristan on the road again concerns Khloé. This is when all the cheating happened in the past.”
The insider added that the on-again-off-again couple “became very close again” after Thompson’s mom died.
