Khloe Kardashian reveals why she doesn’t “badmouth” ex-Tristan Thompson

The Kardashians star Khloe Kardashian is taking the high road and has recently released that she doesn’t want to talk bad about ex-Tristan Thompson. Since she and Tristan Thompson broke up for good in early 2022 amid his multiple cheating scandals, the former couple have worked to establish a co-parenting relationship for their kids. And the 39-year-old isn't holding back when it comes to sharing how difficult her journey has been.
"With me and Tristan, would it be really easy to never talk to him again and to just badmouth him or whatever?" Khloe told in an interview published Jan.11, per People.
She mentioned, “Of course. But it's way harder to be nice. It's way harder when you're really mad at someone. it's really hard to sit in their face in front of your kids and be like, ‘Hi!'" Even though Khloe—who shares daughter True, 5, and son Tatum, 16 months, with the basketball player—believes it's the best approach, it still sometimes feels like an uphill battle.
Khloe further said, "I had to learn to take control of my feelings. There were so many times that my feelings got control of me and I was impulsive and I tweeted something or posted something and things that you regret. But in my opinion, I'll never regret being a nice person."
While it can be difficult to hold back as she navigates her co-parenting relationship with Tristan—who is also dad to Prince, 6, with ex Jordan Craig and shares son Theo, 2, with Maralee Nichols—at the end of the day it all comes down to what's really good for True and Tatum.

"I want my kids to have beautiful relationships with their dad," the Kardashians star revealed. Despite their difficult dynamic, family always comes first for the stars. In fact, she allowed Tristan and his brother Amari, 17—who the NBA player took guardianship of after the death of their mom Andrea Thompson—to temporarily move in with her.
