When it comes to heartbreak, Khloé Kardashian has been through the wringer, and apparently, Kim Kardashian has been the one breaking the news. While some big sisters might help pick a dress or hype up for a date, Khloé had Kim dropping the bombs about cheating scandals. More than once.
In the latest episode of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, which dropped on April 16, Khloé, now 40, opened up about her past relationships and revealed something juicy and deeply personal: Kim knew about her partners' infidelity before she did.
Khloé Confirms: Kim and Kris Were in the Know Before She Was
Host Alex Cooper didn't even have to dig too hard. When she asked if Kris Jenner ever knew something before Khloé, KoKo responded without hesitation, "Oh my God. She has more times than less, her and Kim."
She went on to say, "I think sometimes it bothers her. And I'm like, 'Why does that bother you?' But Kim has known about the cheating. I think both of the cheating stuff. I think Kim found out first. I think both — which is crazy — before I knew."
While Khloé didn't specify if she meant Lamar Odom or Tristan Thompson (honestly, it could be both), she did make it clear that this wasn't just some coincidence. Apparently, Kim has a sixth sense or maybe just solid sources.
Let's Talk About Lamar Odom First
Khloé and Lamar's whirlwind romance began in 2009, and they tied the knot just one month after meeting. But what looked like a fairy tale quickly turned into tabloid chaos. By 2013, Khloé had filed for divorce after several cheating rumors and allegations swirled around Odom. She ended up calling it off in 2015 to support him after his near-fatal overdose, but finalized the split in 2016.
According to Khloé, it was Kris who had to break the news about Lamar's behavior back then.
Then Came the Tristan Thompson Saga
And who could forget Tristan? Khloé and the NBA player started dating in 2016. Just days before Khloé gave birth to their daughter, True, in 2018, videos of Tristan getting way too cozy with other women surfaced online. The worst part? Kim literally found out mid-interview while filming "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."
"When Kim found out that Tristan was cheating on me when I was pregnant… I think she was about to sit down for 'Keeping Up' interviews, and it happened while she was in the interview chair," Khloé revealed. "We just happened to be filming all the f------ time, so it did happen that way."
The drama didn't end there. After trying to patch things up, Tristan pulled another headline-making move in 2019 when he kissed Jordyn Woods, Kylie Jenner's then-best friend. They briefly reconciled again (we all saw it). Still, everything came crashing down for good in 2021 when it was revealed he fathered a child with another woman, fitness trainer Maralee Nichols, while Khloé was expecting Tatum via surrogate.
"I knew in hindsight," Khloé shared. "Oh, that's what that feeling was of never feeling safe with him again. That I just—my body sort of knew, a woman's intuition."
She Regrets Disappointing Her Sisters
One of the most touching moments from the podcast was when Khloé didn't dwell on her own heartbreak. Instead, she talked about how much she regrets letting her younger sisters down.
"I think the worst part of that experience was how much I let down my younger sisters," she said, referring to Kendall and Kylie. "Because I remember they were like, 'He's gonna do this again. Don't, like, stay with him.'"
She continued, "They would never say that to me, and they've never said that to me. But I've always felt how much I've disappointed them by staying and doing that again."
Family First, Even When the News Sucks
While it's never fun to find out someone cheated, Khloé made it clear that if she had to hear it from someone, she'd rather it be from Kim or Kris than a random headline or stranger. "I would rather a family member than a stranger," she said.
At the end of the day, Khloé's been through a lot, but she's also surrounded by strong women who've had her back, even when delivering the hardest news. Kim's always been in the loop, whether it's intuition, insider info, or just good timing. And even when it hurt, she stepped up.
