A real Khlo-up! Khloé Kardashian has evolved into a successful businesswoman and mother since she first stepped on the scene in Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
Fans met Khloé and her famous family, including sisters Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner as well as mom Kris Jenner, in October 2007, when the hit reality series debuted on E! Since then, the women have taken nearly every industry imaginable by storm.
Khloé, for her part, hosted her own shows, launched a thriving clothing line and grew her family. The reality star welcomed her first child, daughter True, with then-boyfriend Tristan Thompson in April 2018.
However, her love life consistently presented struggles. Khloé married Lamar Odom in September 2009 after a quick courtship. Amid rumors of infidelity, she filed for divorce from the basketball player in December 2013. They finalized the process in December 2016 after the athlete survived a near-fatal overdose in a Nevada brothel.
The Strong Looks Better Naked author moved on with Thompson in September 2016. Us Weekly exclusively revealed in September 2017 that she was pregnant. As True’s arrival drew closer, though, the Cleveland Cavaliers player was caught cheating on Khloé with multiple women. The duo worked past the scandal but ultimately ended their relationship in February 2019 after he was unfaithful with Kylie’s best friend Jordyn Woods. They reunited in August 2020 but called it quits again in June 2021.
Khloé reflected on her ups and downs as her 35th birthday approached. “Fabulous,” she told Us of her life in June 2019. “It’s literally all a blur. Don’t you feel like these years go by so fast?”
Kim, meanwhile, wished for her little sis to shed the negativity in the coming year. “God, I have so many memories with you. There really isn’t a particular favorite, just because every moment I’m with you is a favorite,” the KKW Beauty founder said in a June 2019 video. “But I honestly wish this next year for you to be drama-free. … Happy, healthy, full of love and no more bulls–t.”

Keeping Up With the Kardashians premiered on E! and went on to become one of the longest-running reality TV shows ever. The series delved into the good and bad aspects of the brood’s lives, including Khloé’s devastation in the aftermath of Thompson’s cheating scandals. “Khloé is really strong,” a source told Us in June 2019, as the second dalliance aired. “She has been living this for months. It’s hard for her to see it all over again, but she’s in such a better place.”

Khloé was arrested for driving under the influence in March 2007. She turned herself in to authorities in July 2008 after violating her parole. The former X Factor host sidestepped her maximum 30-day jail sentence when she was released following less than three hours in custody due to overcrowding. Kim famously took selfies during the car ride as Kris told her daughter, “Would you stop taking pictures of yourself? Your sister’s going to jail.”

Khloé filed for divorce from Odom after four years of marriage. The couple were estranged for months before the legal move due to his drug use and infidelity. “She flip-flopped several times, but she can’t imagine having kids with someone who refuses to seek help for his [addiction],” a source told Us at the time.
She put the proceedings on hold in October 2015 after the athlete fell into a coma following an overdose in a Nevada brothel. Khloé filed the papers again in May 2016, and they finalized the divorce in December 2016.

Khloé and Thompson first sparked romance rumors amid her divorce. The NBA player’s ex Jordan Craig, meanwhile, was pregnant with the pair’s son, Prince, at the time. The Strong Looks Better Naked author later denied that she began dating him while he was still with the model. The center allegedly claimed the romance with Craig “was long over before we met.”

Us broke the news that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was pregnant with her first child.

Days before Khloé delivered daughter True, Us confirmed that Thompson cheated on her with multiple women during her pregnancy. The couple chose to weather the scandal, despite bumps in their relationship.
The new mom broke her silence in June 2018 when a commenter relayed how “disappointed” she was in her decision to stay with the basketball player. “You have no knowledge of what goes on in our household or the enormous rebuilding this takes to even coexist. I’m proud of my strength,” she tweeted. “I appreciate your opinion and I hope you hold that same opinion to everyone else who has stayed in situations.”

Us broke the news that Khloé was quarantining with Thompson amid the coronavirus pandemic. “Khloé is enjoying spending time as a family and being all together right now, but she’s not completely open to letting Tristan back in her life in a romantic way right now,” a source revealed the following month.

After the athlete agreed to be Khloé’s sperm donor in an April 2020 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, rumors that the exes were expecting their second child together ran rampant. “I am disgusted by so many things I am seeing. SMH people swear they know everything about me. Including my uterus. Sick,” she tweeted in May 2020. “The nasty things you’re saying about me are over A RUMOR. I have seen so many hurtful/despicable stories and tweets about me over a false story. And if it were true. … it’s MY LIFE, NOT YOURS.”

Multiple sources confirmed to Us that Khloé and Thompson had gotten back together. “Khloé is hopeful that Tristan has changed for good and will continue to grow and be the great and loyal partner that he has been throughout their time together during the [coronavirus] quarantine,” a source said at the time. “The fact that Tristan hasn’t been working or been able to hang out with his friends and other athletes who have previously been a negative influence on him like he used to has been great for their relationship. But when things do go back to normal, who knows what will happen?”
A second insider added that the Good American founder was hoping to have a second child with the NBA player, who signed with the Boston Celtics in November 2020. “Khloé would love to give daughter True a sibling because she is at the perfect age,” the source explained.

The former Kocktails With Khloé host was involved in a controversy surrounding a bikini photo of her that was wiped from the internet. “Hey guys, this is me and my body unretouched and unfiltered,” she wrote via Instagram, alongside a video of herself nearly nude in front of a mirror. “The photo that was posted this week was beautiful. But as someone who has struggled with body image her whole life, when someone takes a photo of you that isn’t flattering in bad lighting or doesn’t capture your body the way it is after working so hard to get it to this point — and then shares it to the world — you should have every right to ask for it not to be shared — no matter who you are.”
She went on to say that she felt “pressure, constant ridicule and judgment” from online commentators. “‘Khloé is the fat sister,'" she recalled being told. "‘Khloé is the ugly sister.’ ‘Her dad must not be her real dad because she looks so different.’ ‘The only way she could have lost that weight must have been from surgery.’ Should I go on?”
The reality star revealed that she loves “a good filter, good lighting and an edit here and there,” but said she wouldn't apologize for anything she posts. "My body, my image and how I choose to look and what I want to share is my choice," she explained. "It’s not for anyone to decide or judge what is acceptable anymore."

After Keeping Up With the Kardashians aired its final episode, the whole family sat down with Andy Cohen for a two-part reunion special. During the show, Khloé confessed to having had one nose job but no other plastic surgery. “For me, everyone says, ‘Oh my gosh, she’s had her third face transplant,'” she told the Bravo exec. “But I’ve had one nose job — Dr. Raj Kinodia — and everyone gets so upset, like, ‘Why don’t I talk about it?'”
She claimed that no one had asked her about what specific procedures she'd undergone before the reunion. “No one’s ever asked me,” she continued. “You’re the first person in an interview that’s ever asked me about my nose. I’ve done, sure, injections — not really Botox. I’ve responded horribly to Botox.”

Us confirmed on June 21 that Khloé and Thompson had called it quits yet again. “They broke up a few weeks ago,” a source said at the time. “They remain amicable toward each other and will continue to coparent [True].” The insider added that "there was no drama" involved in the split, noting, “Things just didn’t work out.”
