This week's episode of "The Kardashians" was mostly about Khloe Kardashian's husband, Tristan Thompson, who is the father of her two children. And cheating was the hottest topic of that episode! Thompson was honest about the bad things he had done in the past, like having two children with women while Khloe and their surrogate were pregnant. He has also been caught cheating with Kylie Jenner's ex-best friend. Not an old-fashioned story about “wife catches husband cheating’, isn’t it?

After starting a relationship with Khloe seven years ago, Thompson has been cheating on her many times, each time being more and more rude about it. In May, a Kardashian source said that Khloe and Tristan are still not back together.
In 2019, Thompson was caught cheating on Khloe with Jenner's best friend Jordyn Woods while still dating Khloe.
The Kardashians' response was to essentially cut ties with Woods while retaining Thompson, a decision that, in hindsight, proved misguided.
During the episode, Thompson expressed remorse to Jenner: "It really bothers me because we’ve always had such a dope relationship, and I feel like everyone got affected differently. But I think you were affected the most by a situation with, ya know, losing a sister basically."
He continued, "You lost Jordyn, who was a big part of your life. You guys were two peas in a pod. So the fact that I put myself in that situation that wasn’t right and wasn’t smart and made it tough for you and Khloe. Because at the end of the day, you have your best friends and then you have your sister who you love more than anything else, so it’s 100 percent on me. So I wanna say that I’m sorry and I feel bad about it."
Jenner responded, "I think I was so dependent with Jordyn that I could have never imagined my life without her. We probably would have still been living together, and I think she needed to grow without me, I needed to grow without her. But, you know, Jordyn and I are cool now."
Thompson understood what Woods was going through and asked Jenner to tell him he was sorry. Woods got a lot of bad feedback from people, so she had to say sorry in public on Jada Pinkett Smith's Red Table Talk.
Later in the show, Kourtney Kardashian confronted Thompson and asked him if he felt bad about cheating on her sister the day before. There was something interesting about Thompson's answer: "For me personally, when I cheat, I feel disgusted the next day."
According to psychologist Wilda Harrison, Tristan Thompson's repeated affairs on "The Kardashians" are not just a pattern of behavior but also a sign of a deeper problem within him. "He seems truly sorry for what he did, but the fact that he can't change his behavior shows that he doesn't really understand or want to deal with the problems at hand. Even though he said sorry, his actions keep hurting people and building mistrust, which suggests he needs to think more deeply about his actions and maybe even get help from a professional."
