Tristan Thompson Talked About The Reason Of Him Cheating On Khloe Kardashian With Her Sister Kourtney
Tristan Thompson, the ex-partner of Khloé Kardashian, has disclosed his philandering behavior.
The Cleveland Cavaliers center revealed why he cheated on Khloé several times throughout their six-year, on-again relationship during some “long overdue” talks with her family on the most recent episode of “The Kardashians.”
Khloé’s elder sister, Kourtney Kardashian, could no longer pretend to have a relationship with Thompson, so she sat down with him to “get an understanding” of why he did what he did.

“The next day after you do the deed, do you feel anything?” Kourtney asked him.
“For me personally, when I cheat, I feel disgusted the next day with guilt,” When Thompson answered that, Kourtney questioned why he continued to cheat on her sister.
“I was just cheating for an action, just cheating for a feeling, but also it really came down to not knowing how to love, because that’s the way I grew up,” Tristian replied to Kourtney.
“What I saw from my dad, how he would treat my mom [the mother Andrea Thompson], as a kid when you see that, the trauma you have, because you can’t protect your mom because you’re so young and ’cause your mom tells you it’s going to be OK, you basically numb your emotions of being scared or feeling sad. It’s my form of a defense mechanism.”
Thompson said that for the previous two years, he has been receiving therapy.
He went on to say that he had never witnessed a nice husband or a committed partnership.

“I don’t think you deserve Khloé or the actions that you’ve done have been something that she’s deserved,” Before the episode concluded, Kourtney stated.
The youngest Kardashian-Jenner sibling, Kylie Jenner, was the person Thompson spoke with separately because he felt she was the one most impacted by his infidelity.
The two talked about Thompson’s 2019 controversy, in which he kissed Jenner’s best friend who lived in her apartment, Jordyn Woods, while he was dating Khloé.

“You do some dumb-ass s–t,” Jenner said. “I think you have such a good heart and good energy and to know you is to love you, your spirit and everything, so it is confusing.
“Because some of the s–t you do is really f–king crazy.”
Thompson expressed regret and referred to himself as a “f–king idiot,” raising doubts about his motivation for cheating.

“I think a lot of it was selfish and not understanding the value of good people,” he said.
In an effort to “gain back the respect” of the Kardashian-Jenner family, Thompson embarked on a tour of apology.
Tristan is equally to blame but Tristan is the father of my child. Regardless of what he does to me I won’t do that to my daughter. He has been addressing this situation PRIVATELY. If Tristan were to lie publicly about what conspired,then yes I would address him publicly as well

“That’s my motivation more than anything,” he explained. “I never want my daughter to go to school and talk so great about me and then some little kid comes and is like, ‘Well, your dad is this, this, this,’ and she’ll be embarrassed and that will break my heart.”
Jenner was requested by Thompson to express his regret to Woods on Jenner’s behalf for interfering with their friendship.

“I appreciate that,” Jenner said. “… And I think she needed to grow without me. I needed to grow without her. But Jordyn and I are cool. We still talk and catch up.”
Khloé’s mother Kris Jenner, as well as her siblings Rob and Kim Kardashian, were reportedly spoken to earlier by Thompson.
