Khloé Kardashian wants social media to know she’s happily single.
The Kardashians star was quick to shut down an online rumor that she had moved on to dating another NBA star. The rumor started on celebrity gossip social media account DeuxMoi, which received an original submission from a fan wondering when the good American mogul would start dating a guy like Pete Davidson or Travis Barker.
DuexMoi posted a photo combining the original submission with a screenshot of text from a source that read, “I heard she was dating another NBA player…”. DeuxMoi questioned the identity of said player, to which the source wrote back, “No, my boss couldn’t remember his name, sorry!”
The screenshot was then reposted by the @KardashianSocial Instagram account. They captioned the repost, “Who knows if this is true and I know she doesn’t need anyone but I can’t wait for one day for her to have someone like Kravis and Kete because I know she will.” “
The youngest Kardashian sister saw the post and commented, “Definitely NOT true!!! I love you! Thanks for the nice wishes, but I don’t see a soul. I’m happy to focus on my daughter and myself for a while.”
Fans responded positively to her comment. One fan wrote back, “As you should queen,” while another added, “Khloe we love you Tristan has no respect for you and True.”
The June 9 and June 16 episodes of The Kardashians focused on Kardashian’s ex Tristan Thompson, who cheated on Kardashian and fathered a child with another woman. Thompson and Kardashian were trying to make their relationship work at the time. The former couple share their 4-year-old daughter True.
On the series, the heartbreaking news is revealed when Kim Kardashian calls her sisters Kylie and Kourtney. “No, I’m not fucking lying,” the SKKN mogul said over the phone. “I tremble for her. My soul dies for her.”
“He asks for a paternity test and admits he had sex with her,” the mother-of-four continued. “Khloé gave him his 30th birthday. So he went home from the 30th birthday party, went to Houston to play along the way – we can check his schedule – and then he slept with this girl.”
The former Revenge Body host later told her sister, who would soon become a lawyer, that she was fine with leaving Thompson for good. What she doesn’t like are the internet trolls and their lack of empathy.
“It’s time to go and I don’t feel guilty about it,” she explained during an emotional scene on the Hulu reality show. “I’ve tried so hard to be okay. Is it the shittiest thing that this has to happen so publicly every damn time in my life? Yes. Is it so fucked up that society blames me or women? It’s disgusting and deplorable for these people to talk about other people like that. There is no empathy, no compassion. There’s just no sense of humanity.
