Khloe Kardashian's Family Reportedly 'Rallying Around' Her Amid Tristan Thompson Cheating Scandal
Khloé Kardashian's family has got her back.
According to an Entertainment Tonight exclusive, published late Tuesday, April 10, 2018, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians clan are "rallying around" the pregnant reality TV star amid boyfriend Tristan Thompson's cheating scandal, which broke just ahead of her due date.
"Kris has gathered the family and made sure they would all be there for her," a source told the publication. "They are so excited for Khloé. Her sisters are being super supportive of her."
The insider claimed that the famous family are also working together to keep Khloé away from "any of the news right now" to ensure she remains focused on the birth of her baby girl. "[The infidelity reports haven't] stopped the Kardashians from making sure her day will be one of love and respect," the source said. "They won't let any news change the importance of how beautiful this birth is for Khloé. They want her to focus on having a healthy experience."
As for Thompson, it sounds like the Kardashians are as shocked as anyone else about recent reports surrounding the NBA star. "[They] really like Tristan and have welcomed him into their family," the insider said, adding, "At this point, Khloe's family wants nothing more than to believe that he is a stand-up guy and that this was a setup. But only time will tell."
According to another ET source, Khloé is understandably "completely devastated" by the news, adding, "Tristan is a man Khloé built a life with and saw as her forever."
As Nicki Swift previously reported, Thompson is facing multiple cheating allegations, which went viral early Tuesday evening. After the Daily Mail published photos and video footage from over the weekend, in which he appears to be kissing another woman at a New York City nightclub, TMZ released an exclusive video of Thompson and the same mystery woman returning to a Four Seasons hotel together early Sunday morning.
The gossip rag later obtained a surveillance video from October 2017. In the clip, the pro basketball player can be seen getting cozy with two women at a Washington D.C. hookah lounge.
Kardashian, 33, and Thompson, 27, who have been together since October 2016, confirmed that they were expecting their first child together last December. The Revenge Body star is currently preparing for their baby's birth in Cleveland, Ohio, where Thompson plays for the Cavaliers.
At the time of this writing, Thompson, Kardashian, and their reps have yet to comment on these reports.
