Everything Khloe Kardashian Has Said About Conceiving Her 2nd Child With Tristan Thompson

Ready to give True a sibling. Khloé Kardashian has been candid about her fertility journey while trying to conceive baby No. 2 with Tristan Thompson. Us Weekly broke the news in August 2020 that the on-again, off-again couple were “back together” after his two cheating scandals. “Khloé is hopeful that Tristan has changed for good and will continue to grow and be the great and loyal partner that he has been throughout their time together during the [coronavirus] quarantine,” a source exclusively told Us at the time. “The fact that Tristan hasn’t been working or been able to hang out with his friends and other athletes who have previously been a negative influence on him like he used to has been great for their relationship.” The insider added that the pair “would love” to expand their family, noting “[Their] daughter, True, is the perfect age for a sibling.” Seven months later, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star revealed that she and the professional basketball player were considering surrogacy. "[My doctor] said that I would be, like, a high-risk carrier for a pregnancy,” the Good American cocreator explained during a March 2021 KUWTK clip. "I’m not gonna get into specifics on camera, but they said it’s an 80 percent chance I’ll miscarry. I almost miscarried with True at the beginning. But I didn’t know that was a lingering thing. … She said she would feel terrible putting [an embryo] in without warning me that most likely I wouldn't be able to carry.” The Los Angeles native was “shocked” by this news, explaining that she was simply “trying to … bring more love and more life into” her family. [jwplayer sBJpJsey-zhNYySv2] The reality star previously clapped back at haters after they negatively reacted to rumors that she was trying to have another child with the athlete. “I don’t go on social media platforms much these days AND this is one of the main reasons why I stay away,” the Strong Looks Better Naked author tweeted in May 2020. “The sick and hurtful things people say. I am disgusted by so many things I am seeing. SMH people swear they know everything about me. Including my uterus. Sick.” The Revenge Body host added at the time: “The nasty things you’re saying about me are over A RUMOR. I have seen so many hurtful/despicable stories and tweets about me over a false story. And if it were true. … it’s MY LIFE, NOT YOURS.” She and Thompson welcomed True in April 2018. The Canada native is also the father of son Prince with his ex Jordan Craig. Us confirmed in July 2022 that the exes are expecting their second child via surrogate. Their little one’s arrival was announced that August.

Sharing Her Story

A teaser for season 2 of The Kardashians gave a first look at Khloé confirming she was expecting her second child via surrogate with Thompson following his cheating scandal with Maralee Nichols.

“There is something that I am ready to talk about,” the Revenge Body host said to the camera in the September 2022 clip. “Tristan and I are having another baby and it’s supposed to be a really exciting time and it’s just a different experience.”

Khloé added while it was a “difficult" period of her life, it was also the “start of something happy and beautiful.”

Expert Opinion

Update

"I did have one [surrogate] and then it fell through," the reality star said during the June 2021 KUWTK reunion. "It's a very tedious, hard process. And it was interesting because Kim went through the journey, and I swear it felt like she said, 'I want to get pregnant,' and two weeks later she found a surrogate.”

On the Fence

"I'm definitely second-guessing,” the Revenge Body host said during a May 2021 KUWTK episode after an “overwhelming” conversation with a surrogate therapist. "I'm starting to wonder if surrogacy is really gonna work for me and my family.”

Sister, Sister

After Khloé called surrogacy "scary" in a March 2021 episode, Kim Kardashian encouraged her to stay open-minded. "You’ll see that the love you’ll have for your kids is exactly the same,” the KKW Beauty creator said. "There’s no difference except there was someone else that was the carrier.”

Pandemic Pause

"If you do need assistance in fertility, it's much more challenging during COVID," Khloé said during a March 2021 Ellen DeGeneres Show appearance. "They say, 'If you wanna make God laugh, tell him your plans.' So the one time I'm actually really trying to plan, God is saying, 'Uh uh, you can't make your plans like this!’ My plan was to have kids closer in age. But with COVID and everything, my plan [has] been a little delayed.”

Perfect Timing

"True’s getting older and I feel like it’s now time to have another kid," she told the NBA player in February 2021. "I’m gonna need you. We have to line it up with your schedule so I can make embryos with my frozen eggs. … I think I’m ready to do the whole pregnancy thing again. This process might take time. I have no idea. I want to be prepared."

Round Two

In July 2020, Khloé said during a SiriusXM Hits 1’s Morning Mash Up appearance that she "definitely" wanted to have more children. "I am totally content with True if all I ever have is True," she said at the time. "She fulfills everything I’ve ever dreamt of and wanted, she’s perfect. I know that's a lot of pressure to put on her, but to me she is. If i have another one, what a blessing, but if not, I feel fine with that.”
