Don’t mess with Khloe’s inner circle


DECEMBER 16, 2021 10:12 PM EST

Khloé Kardashian doesn’t play when it comes to loyalty, which isn’t always a good thing- but over the years the reality star has defended her sisters and even the men in their life from rumors or bad press. Most recently, she defended Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott’s relationship clarifying that they’re “very much a couple,” after a leaked W magazine story said they weren’t. While Khloe usually stays quiet when it comes to her own drama, here are 6 times the Good American founder has defended someone.

Kim Kardashian

In 2018 Khloe addressed a hater directly in the comments of Kim Kardashian’s post. Kim shared an image of when she was 10 and many commented on how much she looked like her daughter Chicago West. But one uninformed hater tried saying that Chicago would “either look MORE like Kanye (West) or the surrogate mother.” Khloe wasn’t having it and wrote, “If you don’t know about someone’s situation then maybe you shouldn’t comment. Try informing yourself first before you make such silly statements.” “Your (sic) passive wanna be petty comment is simply uneducated. Chicago is completely Kimberly’s biological child. Praise the lord she was able to have a surrogate and that we are blessed we sweet gorgeous Chi Chi,” she continued.

Kris Humphries

Kim and Kris Humphries’ marriage ended just as quickly as it started and after the split, Kris found himself in an extortion case with his ex-girlfriend Myla Sinanaj. TMZ asked Khloe about the situation in 2012 and she seemed concerned as she asked what trouble he was in. After getting the tea Khloe replied, “Well, that shouldn’t happen to anyone, Kris is a good guy.” When asked if he thought they were really a couple she shot back, “I don‘t know who he is f***ing, it’s just not my sister, that‘s all I know.”

Tyga and Kylie

Perhaps the most controversial take, Khloe defended Tyga and Kylie’s relationship that allegedly started when she was underage. He met Kylie when she was 14 and by the time she turned 17, it was pretty obvious she and the then 25-year-old were a couple. Tyga is still getting backlash for the relationship but Khloe told Complex in 2015, “Kylie might be 17, but from what Kylie has been through and the life she lives, she’s not a normal 17-year-old … I think at 16 I was probably f***ing someone that was in their 20s, for sure. I wouldn’t say I was even dating, probably just sleeping with them. But again Kylie is not a normal 17-year-old.” Yikes.

Tristan Thompson

Khloe might not have the same positive energy but in 2019 she defended Tristan Thompson, her serial cheater on and off again boyfriend and father of True from claims that he was a bad dad. At the time Us Weekly reported that a source said, “Khloe is getting extremely upset with Tristan because he isn’t really making any effort to be involved in their daughter True’s life…Khloe understands he is on the road because of basketball, and he lives in Cleveland, but she just feels that Tristan has moved on. Tristan’s attitude seems to be, ‘I will see True when I see her.’” A fan retweeted the article with kind words to Khloe but she came to Tristan’s defense and wrote, “Thank you love! You’re so very sweet. But he is a good dad to her. My sweet and special baby True will NEVER be put in the middle of him and I. I can promise that.”

Kendall Jenner

Back in 2014, Kendall Jenner walked the Marc Jacobs runway show in a sheer knit blouse that showed her nipples and people were pissed. Kendall was 18 at the time but people even hated on Kris Jenner’s parenting skills. Khloe fought back on Twitter and wrote, “She’s too dope for you 2 understand! Yall would trade places with her in a second! The hate is real! Lol bye, haters! #ModelLife #Simple.”

Kim caught backlash for planning an elaborate pandemic birthday trip to a private island in 2020. Kim was called “tone deaf” for the trip but Khloe defended her on The Ellen Degeneres Show. “I haven’t heard a lot about it, but I did hear that people were upset that we all went out of town [but] I don’t really know the extent of it, but this year is a frustrating year,” Khloé said. “I get it. I think there’s so many frustrations going on for everybody, but also, it’s her 40th. This is something she really wanted to do for us… it was such a nice thing.”
