The much-awaited Season 3 of The Kardashians has finally arrived, bringing exciting news from Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson. They have revealed the name of their 9-month-old son! The 38-year-old socialite had previously confirmed that her baby’s name would start with a ‘T’, just like his sister, True Thompson.
During the season premiere, Khloe shared the name in a heartwarming moment. “His name is Tatum,” she said. Khloe mentioned that choosing a name for her baby was not easy, but she is delighted to continue the Kardashian tradition of children having names that begin with the same letter. She proudly announced, “So, Tatum and True.”
However, what Khloe didn’t reveal at that moment is that Tatum’s full name wasn’t always Tatum Thompson. Initially, it was Tatum Kardashian. As reported by Mamas Uncut, just before Tatum was born via a surrogate, news of Tristan’s infidelity broke, understandably angering Khloe. TMZ reports that Khloe initially documented Tatum’s full name as Tatum Kardashian when she brought him home from the hospital. But later on, Khloe changed her mind, and now Tatum Thompson is her son’s full legal name. What a surprising twist!
Khloe and Tristan welcomed Tatum in July 2022 through surrogacy. He was conceived in November 2021, just a month before Tristan had a son with Maralee Nichols, which ultimately led to Khloe breaking up with him. Although the couple is no longer together, they are committed to co-parenting their children seriously. Khloe recently shared photos of Tristan with both their kids and praised him, saying, “You are the best father.”
Over the past nine months, Khloe has done an excellent job of keeping Tatum out of the public eye. Although not much is known about the little guy, family and friends have already given him a nickname – Tate. Some family members even think he looks like his uncle, Rob Kardashian.
In an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show in April, Khloe explained why she kept Tatum’s name a secret. Initially, she didn’t have a name for him and wanted to get to know him before giving him one. She finally decided on a name some time ago but chose to keep it a secret. One major reason for that was to reveal the name during the Season 3 premiere. However, Khloe had no idea the premiere was so far away, making it feel like we were waiting forever for the name reveal. But now that the premiere is here, the name has finally been unveiled!
Khloe affectionately describes Tatum as a little chunk and wouldn’t have it any other way. She loves chubby babies and is grateful to have been blessed with a happy and content baby boy. “He is a quiet baby. He’s a happy baby, which is amazing – and my daughter was the same, so I’ve been lucky twice,” she said during her interview with Jennifer Hudson in April.
Are Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson Getting Back Together?
Khloe Kardashian is growing tired of the constant question of whether or not she will get back together with Tristan Thompson. Since Tatum’s birth, she has been repeatedly asked about a possible reconciliation. However, it seems that a reunion is not in the cards for them. Just a week ago, Khloé took to a fan page’s comments section to express her frustration with the persistent narrative of a reunion. She has already debunked this idea multiple times over the past year and is tired of hearing about it since she has moved on.
Regarding her recent appearance at a Los Angeles Lakers’ game to support Thompson, Khloe explained that some things are just as simple as they seem. She clarified that her presence was merely that of a family member supporting another family member, especially during a difficult time in life. So, no, they are not getting back together!
Khloe’s journey, marked by strength and resilience, continues to inspire. Let us keep supporting her and celebrate the joys of motherhood she shares with us.
