Kim Kardashian finally breaks her silence on Tristan Thompson cheating on Khloé
It seems the Kardashian Krisis Manager, Kim Kardashian, has taken a break from trying to dole out advice to her husband about how not to infuriate every living person on Twitter to divert her attention to another family drama: the Tristan Thompson cheating scandal.
Videos of the basketball professional surfaced of him fooling around with other women just days before Khloé Kardashian gave birth to their daughter, True.
Neither Khloé nor Tristan have said anything about the videos since the scandal broke, but it's reported that the new mother has forgiven Tristan for his alleged cheating. E! reports that although she's "furious" with the Cleveland Cavaliers player, she hopes they can make things work for the sake of their two-week-old child. She's reportedly staying in a different house to Tristan at the moment, though he visits Khloé and their new baby often.
Now, in a preview clip for an upcoming episode of Ellen due to air on Monday, Kim has spoken about her sister's ordeal for the first time since the scandal broke.
"Poor Khloé. I don’t even know how to describe it besides it’s just so f*cked up," she told the host. "We really were rooting for Khloé and we still are. She’s so strong and she’s doing the best that she can. It’s a really sad situation all over."
However, Kim was poised enough not to comment further, keeping the interest of baby True at heart.

"I kind of made this rule with my brother," she said. "If there’s a baby involved, I’m going to keep it cute and classy and try not to say anything negative because one day True is going to see this. It’s just so messed up."
It's a pretty sh*tty situation for anyone to be in, especially when you've just given birth to a baby with that unfaithful person. Kim admitted she's held back on saying too much about the situation, which is absolutely the right thing to do for her sister.
Kim's reportedly also very upset with her husband, Kanye West, for having shown support for Tristan in the past few days. The rapper ended one of his most recent Twitter-rant-filled days by signing off saying he was going to "go watch the Cavs." This, of course, was in reference to the basketball game featuring the NBA team Tristan plays for.
A source reportedly told Us Weekly that Kim was not happy at all with his show of low-key support for the baby daddy.
"At the end [of] Kanye’s Twitter rants on Wednesday, he said he was going to watch the Cavaliers," the source said. "This of course upset Kim, but she refused to give Kanye the attention he wanted from the post."
The source added that Kim has been "extremely upset" about the Twitter rants that have recently landed Kanye in hot water, especially since he's not listening to her reasoning about what it's making people think.
"Kim has been extremely upset with Kanye’s social media rants in the past," the source said. "She tried pointing out to Kanye that the posts were only adding to speculation about his mental health, and just wanted him to realize that. He refuses to listen, and almost seemed to be taunting Kim’s advice, which he typically follows … At this point, Kim is just not engaging Kanye because it’s counterproductive and will only cause more fighting."
It's uncertain when the Ellen clip was filmed and whether it was before or after the controversial MAGA tweets from the rapper, but Kim commented that she was taken aback by his loud return to the social media platform.
"I didn’t even know he got his Twitter again," she said in the video. "At night, he came in and was like did you see my tweets ... and I followed him back."
