Khloé Kardashian has been single for three full years, and she’s got no plans to change that status anytime soon!
Perezcious readers know that the Good American founder broke up with her ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson after he cheated on her… repeatedly. And not only that, but he fathered a child with the other woman!
After going through that brutal betrayal, Khloé slammed the door shut on a romantic relationship with the basketball player once and for all! And in fact, she hasn’t dated anyone since then. Nor does she really want to!

A part of the reason is most likely because of all the heartbreak she went through with Tristan. It takes time to heal from a wound like that. However, it’s more than just the cheating drama. She is also “happy” with their children True and Tatum. This week on her podcast Khloé in Wonderland, the Revenge Body host told guest Jay Shetty:
“My ex and I are not together anymore, but we co-parent really, really well. But I have chosen not to because I genuinely don’t want to right now. I’m not dating because my relationship with my kids is everything to me. Where I am in my life right now, I just really want to nurture this love and I just want to be as present as I can. I don’t want any distractions in my life.”
That is not to say she is not open to love if it comes her way one day! She’s just not “actively” searching for it:
“If I meet someone in two months, two years and I fall in love, great. But I’m not actively on the dating scene, searching for someone and I am so happy. I feel so fulfilled. I also love that I’ve taken about three years off of dating, and I feel like I really got to know myself on a deeper level.”
As Khloé pointed out, she “had to deal with a lot of trauma to get to this point.” And she has been through it over the years, starting with the end of her marriage to Lamar Odom. Then, she had to postpone their divorce after he was left in a coma following an overdose. When KoKo later moved on to Tristan, he was not a standup, as he cheated on her multiple times — including with sis Kylie Jenner’s friend Jordyn Woods. And, of course, there is the paternity scandal we mentioned earlier. Yeesh…
That is a lot for anyone to handle, and especially so publicly! In fact, for Khloé, it’s the type of stuff that she “wouldn’t wish on anyone!” The Kardashians star continued:
“Like what we were talking about in the beginning, don’t discredit the things that brought you to this journey, ’cause even though I wouldn’t wish on anyone what I went through romantically, I’m also not ashamed of anything I went through romantically, I think it’s one of my super powers and I that still have such a softness for love, and for life.”
When Jay asked how she managed not to take everything so personally, Khloé credited her “faith,” her “conversations with God,” and her family for helping her understand that her past relationship problems had nothing to do with her:
“It was a part of my journey, but that wasn’t a reflection of me. I was used for that person to learn life lessons. I also feel that because I’m strong enough and my response — like yes, in the moment, if someone did something not great to me I probably had not the best reaction, but afterwards, I’ve always handled things with respect and kindness. And no matter what someone did to me, I was never manipulative or trying to do the same thing back. It’s not an eye for an eye.”
And we all know Khloé has always been good about forgiving others. Even when they may not deserve that level of kindness from her at times. **Cough cough** TRISTAN! **cough cough**
However, she wasn’t always like that. Even the momma knows that it “was a lot harder” when she was younger with Lamar:
“But I didn’t take it on as a victim, I took it more like another layer of armor that I’m putting on myself that I can get through anything in my life.”
There’s no doubt Khloé has been so strong after everything that happened with Lamar and Tristan! Watch the entire podcast episode (below):
