In what may be one of the crucial unfiltered podcast moments of 2025, Khloé Kardashian simply took the new seat on Name Her Daddy with Alex Cooper, and let’s simply say… nothing was off-limits. From motels at 3 a.m. to cowboy events with bloody knuckles, to the notorious Tristan Thompson saga — this episode was mainly The Kardashians meets true crime docuseries. Identified for being probably the most actual and resilient of the Kardashian bunch (we mentioned what we mentioned), Khloé peeled again the layers and gave us an emotional, gritty, and generally downright jaw-dropping account of the wild trip she’s been on.
Khloé + Lamar: Intercourse tapes and motel showdowns
First up: NBA participant Lamar Odom. Khloé revisited the rollercoaster that was their marriage (2009–2016), together with that intercourse tape she casually talked about again in 2016. When requested about it once more on the pod, she laughed, “Perhaps I do, I don’t even keep in mind that. If I mentioned that, then perhaps. Quite a bit occurs yearly… I feel it’s all coming again to me. I’m positive it was one thing we simply did for ourselves, to not promote to any person.”
However the actual cleaning soap opera second got here when she instructed the story of discovering Lamar at a motel in the course of the night time. “I used to be younger, like perhaps 26,” she mentioned. “I noticed within the window that him and this woman had been both bare or she was in lingerie, one thing like that. I knocked on the door, they answered it for some purpose, and I simply began going ballistic.”
The Tristan scandal: Fool me once…
Oh, and in true Khloé style? She confirmed as much as Kourtney Kardashian’s daughter’s cowboy-themed birthday celebration the following day with bloody knuckles. “I simply had bandanas wrapped round [my hand], I used to be on theme. I acted as if nothing ever occurred, and I don’t assume I ever mentioned a factor.”
The Tristan scandal: Idiot me as soon as…
Now to the Tristan Thompson chronicles — a saga that’s had extra plot twists than a daytime cleaning soap. Khloé re-iterated that Kim was the primary to seek out out about Tristan dishonest — each instances. “Kim has identified concerning the dishonest—I feel each of the dishonest stuff — I feel Kim discovered first,” she mentioned. “Which is loopy.” In reality, the primary scandal broke actually whereas Kim was sitting all the way down to movie interviews for the unique Retaining Up With the Kardashians. “We simply occurred to be filming all of the f–king time,” Khloé added. Speak about timing.
The heartbreak, although, went deeper than simply romantic betrayal. “I feel the worst a part of that have was how a lot I let down my youthful sisters,” she mentioned. “I bear in mind they had been like, ‘He’s going to do that once more, don’t stick with him.’ I don’t know precisely what was mentioned, however I simply bear in mind the frustration in them.”
Probably the most painful second? The primary dishonest scandal went public simply two days earlier than she gave start to their daughter, True, in 2018. Whereas they gave issues one other shot, Khloé admitted she was by no means totally comfy. “I by no means may totally belief him, or I by no means felt secure round him once more. There was one thing that I pushed to the facet, and I don’t know why.” Then got here scandal quantity two: the now-infamous kiss with Kylie Jenner’s former BFF Jordyn Woods in 2019. “Perhaps the second damage extra as a result of I lived with it for a lot longer,” she mentioned. “Perhaps I’ve had extra disgrace with the second scandal as a result of I form of knew it was going to occur once more.”
Trying again at her choice, the 40-year-old, who welcomed son Tatum with Tristan in 2022, admitted that she “buried my head within the sand” with the primary scandal. “I simply wished to have this bliss that I all the time dream of and have a model new child and have the daddy right here,” she defined. “While you’ve by no means been in that place, it is very easy to evaluate and to say issues.” However as the ultimate chapter closed — when Tristan fathered one other little one throughout their surrogacy journey — Khloe mentioned goodbye for good.
If this episode proved something, it’s that Khloé’s period of uncooked honesty is right here, and he or she’s not sugarcoating a single second of it. We love a courageous mama!
