Tristan Thompson is back on the dating scene, giving love another chance while his relationship with Khloe Kardashian hangs in limbo. The exes have remained involved in each other’s lives despite finally ending their tumultuous relationship in 2022. However, any hope of a reconciliation has been squashed with the basketballer making the first move.
On Monday, Thompson enjoyed a date night with a mystery brunette. The pair visited LA hot spot restaurant Giorgio Baldi and spent two hours before leaving in different vehicles. Both dressed super casual for the outing, with the Cleveland Cavaliers rocking a light grey Nike hoodie. His date, on the other hand, donned a simple long-sleeved black t-shirt. The mystery date was described as “curvaceous.” As seen in photos obtained by InTouch Weekly, Thompson’s female companion bears a striking resemblance to his former sister-in-law, Kim Kardashian. However, her identity remains unknown.
The NBA player date comes almost a month after he and Khloe enjoyed a heartwarming reunion for their son Tatum’s birthday. The doting parents went all out, hosting an elaborate dinosaur-themed party to celebrate the milestone.
Khloe Kardashian Still ‘Holding Out’ For Tristan Thompson
While Thompson and Khloe seem to be killing it on the co-parenting front, sources claim the reality star wants more. The KUWTK alum is reportedly still in love with the athlete and wants them to be a real family. “As much as she denies that she still has romantic feelings for him, the fact is she just can’t seem to get over him,” the insider alleged.
“She still sees him as the love of her life, but it’s such a touchy subject because he doesn’t want to mess things up again so he’s keeping her in the friend zone.”
The source noted that Khloe dreams about “happily ever after” with the basketballer, but he “doesn’t seem ready.” As a result, she pretends that their co-parenting relationship is all that matters even though “she’s obviously holding out for Tristan.” With Tristan’s new budding romance now in the mix, maybe Khloe will take a hint.
