Okay celeb fans you won't believe this. Khloe Kardashian just dropped a funny but also kind of touching story about her daughter True. Turns out little True Thompson who is six years old has a bit of a misunderstanding about her parents' relationship status. And it is all kinds of cute and a little insightful.
True's Innocent Mix-Up: Daughter Believes Khloe and Tristan Are Husband and Wife
Khloe was chatting with her bestie Malika Haqq on the latest episode of The Kardashians and spilled the tea. She said True her daughter legit thinks she and Tristan Thompson are married. Yep married. Can you even?
Khloe explained True sees them co-parenting raising her and her little brother Tatum and in True's sweet kiddo brain that equals marriage. Khloe even said "True thinks me and Tristan are married." It is kind of adorable in a kid logic way.
Malika's response was basically that it makes sense for a kid and it's probably fine for now. But Khloe has some deeper thoughts about it all. While she finds it cute there is a part of her that is also a little worried about what True is learning about relationships.
Khloe's Mom Dilemma: Protecting True's Innocence But Not Her Understanding of Marriage
Khloe admitted in a confessional that there's one thing that "bothers" her about True's innocent assumption. She doesn't want True growing up thinking THIS is what marriage is supposed to be. You know married but living apart no kissing no sharing a bed basically just co-parents.
Khloe explained "I don’t want True going through life thinking ‘This is what a marriage is. That ‘Oh you’re married to someone and they don’t live with you. And you never have to kiss them or you don’t sleep in the same bed together.’" That's a really thoughtful point right?
She went on to say she actually wants her kids to see her in a real marriage one day. She wants them to witness love affection and romance. She does want them to experience that kind of family dynamic eventually. But for now she is letting True live in her innocent bubble.
Khloe's take is all about prioritizing her kids' well-being right now. She said "But right now I believe you do things for your kids because kids should not be involved in adult problems.” And that makes sense too you know? Shielding kids from grown-up relationship stuff is a pretty common parenting move.

She told Malika straight up "I’m doing things but I’m not on Hinge I’m not on Raya I’m not on all these things and I don’t want to be. I’m fine.” Sounds like she is content focusing on herself her kids and her own happiness for now which is totally valid.
This whole convo comes after Khloe also talked about feeling "anxiety" over rumors that she and Tristan might be getting back together. She shut those rumors down fast saying she and Tristan are definitely not a couple. They are focused on co-parenting and being good parents to True and Tatum. Family first is clearly Khloe's motto right now.
