Not only was Tristan Thompson’s secret affair exposed on Sunday night’s explosive episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but an enraged Khloe Kardashian made a shocking claim no one could ignore— the NBA player threatened to “kill himself” after confessing to cheating on the mother of his child with Kylie Jenner’s best friend, Jordyn Woods.
“He’s like, ‘I can’t stop thinking about you and what a mess I have caused,” Khloe told Scott Disick of the text messages her ex-partner sent her following the scandal. “He’s doing this to get a reaction out of me. Oh, so I’m just allowed to say ‘I’m going to kill myself’ at any time? That’s crazy.”

Despite his disrespectful behaviour, Khloe said she was so worried he’d hurt himself, she made sure his friends checked in on him.
“It just goes to show that Khloe is an unbelievable person that loves so hard and so much,” Scott said. “Somehow she just keeps getting the short end of the stick, and it’s unfair and it’s hurtful and it’s really hard to me to sit and watch.”
Since the episode aired, Tristan is reportedly telling his small circle of friends he’s “pissed off” that the Good American founder’s allegations made it onto the season finale of KUWTK.
“He says he told Khloe he didn’t want to live without her, but that didn’t mean he wanted to kill himself,” a source close to the star told Radar Online. “He is pissed off because a ton of people, including his family members and NBA execs, are reaching out to him very worried.”

The most recent episode of the reality series dove deeply into the scandal, showing the Kardashians’ initial reaction to his spiteful actions.
“Tristan… we’ve all known what he’s capable of — look what he did when I was nine months pregnant” Khloe told her sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner, referring to the first time he cheated on her days before she was due to give birth to their now one-year-old daughter, True. “But I knew who he was, I never, in a million years, thought that’s who she was,” she said, referencing Kylie’s “wifey”, Jordyn.
We were then blessed with hearing Kylie’s side to the story, admitting she was disappointed that Jordyn wasn’t telling the whole truth.
“I called her, and she didn’t really say anything,” said the makeup mogul and founder of Kylie Cosmetics. “She was just crying the whole time and I was just telling her ‘I’m like scared of you now, that you’re capable of waking up the next morning with a smile on your face.’ Then I pretty much told her exactly what we’ve been talking about, like ‘You weren’t thinking about True, not Khloe, not me, but you weren’t thinking about yourself. Like look what you did. It affects my family, me, and then that’s when it’s a problem.'”

Days after the news broke, Khloe said Jordyn confessed to drunkenly kissing her boyfriend of three years, however, changed her story multiple times before appearing on Jada Pinkett Smith’s Red Table Talk.
“But I also think that tone of not ever saying sorry… like I would’ve been on Khloe’s doorstep, bawling my eyes out being like ‘F**k. I don’t know what the f**k I was doing. Holy shit, I’m a f***ing idiot,’” Kim added.
