Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson were reportedly taking their relationship to the next level before they broke up. This came after insiders revealed she accepted his second wedding proposal earlier in 2021.
People learned from a source that the 38-year-old reality star and the 31-year-old NBA player were secretly engaged for nine months. It is claimed that he asked for her hand in marriage sometime around February last year.
The two personalities have yet to address the latest reports. Also, both camps have yet to break their silence to verify the claims, making it unclear whether they are legitimate.
Despite the silence, though, Entertainment Tonight learned similar claims from a source.
The outlet reported Thursday that an insider confirmed the matter, noting that Khloe Kardashian accepted Tristan Thompson’s proposal in February 2021.
It also recalled that the secret engagement came about two months after she rejected her then-partner’s first proposal.
Thursday’s episode of “The Kardashians” Season 2 brought the matter into light when Kim Kardashian talked to Khloe Kardashian about the said proposal, according to Page Six.
The outlet noted that the SKIMS founder spilled that her younger sister never even told their family about Tristan Thompson’s proposal in December 2020.
During a conversation between the two reality stars in the episode, Kim brought up the subject, reportedly saying, “The fact that he proposed and you never told us, and I asked him months later.”
The publication shared that the mom-of-four consequently recalled what Thompson previously stated: “Oh, I did it months ago. She didn’t tell you guys?”
Khloe Kardashian later shared her thoughts in a confessional, addressing the secret proposal from Tristan Thompson in December 2020. She appeared to have explained why she turned it down.
Page Six, in its report covering the matter, quoted the “Revenge Body” host, saying, “I need to make sure this is a totally different relationship because I want to be proud to say I’m engaged to anyone.”
It continues, “And that’s why I said I’m not comfortable accepting this right now because I’m not excited to tell my family.”
Meanwhile, in light of the most recent claim about Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson’s on-and-off relationship, ET shared some thoughts about the matter.
The publication said that the reality star was, therefore, engaged to the professional basketball player when she threw him a 30th birthday party.
This then reportedly meant that the then-couple was also engaged when Thompson allegedly left that party and met with Maralee Nichols, with whom he fathered a child.
