Khloe Kardashian has revealed she made ex Tristan Thompson take three paternity tests to confirm he was the father of their son Tatum.
The reality star, 39, welcomed Tatum, now two, with cheating Thompson, 33 via surrogate – but said she requested DNA tests as the toddler ‘doesn’t look like’ her or the NBA star.
Speaking on the SHE MD podcast on Tuesday, she said: ‘I made Tristan do three DNA tests for Tatum. He was so offended.’
Kardashian said she jokingly asked her brother Rob Kardashian if he ‘ever donated sperm somewhere’ because Tatum ‘looks just like my brother.’
She said: ‘In this family, that would not surprise me, but that would be so disgusting. But I remember she [her doctor] was like, “You’ve already done a DNA test!” I go, “I need to do another one, I need to figure it out.”’

The star said Tatum reminds her of late father Robert Kardashian, saying: ‘My son’s a year-and-a-half, and he’s sarcastic, and my dad had a really dry, silly, just crazy sense of humor, and there’s glimmers of my dad in Tatum, and I’m like this is so freaking weird, but it’s just how God works, and I love it.’
She also opened up about her and the NBA star’s time together admitting that he is ‘incredible father’ and avoided any ‘bashing.’
‘He did make mistakes,’ the Good American co-founder said, ‘He’s the nicest guy and we get along so well now.
‘We’re not meant to be together, but he was meant to be the father of these kids. And we do get along so well and I’m really grateful for that because my parents got along so well,’ she told hosts Dr. Thais Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney.
The mother-of-two previously revealed that she has no intentions of getting back together with the Cavaliers star saying she’s ‘not attracted’ to him.
During their six year relationship they shared 6-year-old True and 1-year-old Tatum.
Khloe and Tristan were first linked in the summer of 2016 when they were spotted at LA’s Bootsy Bellows nightclub.
In a 2017 interview, the Good American co-founder said they met via a blind date set up by their mutual friend, Brandon Jennings, and was reluctant at the time.

October of that same year, the pair went Instagram official in a romantic Halloween post where the two posed as Marvel’s Storm and the Black Panther.
April of 2018, the 33 year-old Canada native fathered daughter, True, with the reality star until their world came crashing down.
Just days before the birth, he was caught in an exclusive video locking lips with a sexy brunette at Manhattan club.
At the time, a source revealed that ‘Khloé carried his child and is much more in the limelight than he is, and she doesn’t think he understands the consequences of his decisions
‘She thinks the cheating scandal is a way bigger deal than he does, and he doesn’t fully understand the repercussions of his actions affecting not only him and Khloé but the entire family as a whole.’
In February 2019, TMZ reported that he cheated again kissing Jordyn Woods, a close family friend. Woods, then best friend of Kylie Jenner, confirmed it in a Red Table Talk.
The socialite gave him a second chance but Thompson went on to father a child with Maralee Nichols in December of 2021 – around the same time and Khloe were expecting their second child via surrogate.
Now, the ex-couple is on friendly terms.

Khloe was previously married to NBA star Lamar Odom from 2009 to 2016.
After one month of dating, they said ‘I do’ but could not make it last as they quietly separated in 2013 amid cheating rumors.
The reality star put a three year pause on signing the official divorce because of his near-fatal overdose in a Las Vegas brothel.
