When it comes to Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson's relationship, everyone has an opinion. Many fans were baffled when she and Tristan got back together after his initial cheating scandal went down mere days before Khloé gave birth to their first child, True Thompson. And following the drama with the NBA player's more recent paternity scandal with another woman when Khloé was expecting their second child, Tatum Thompson, plenty of folks were ready to write him off entirely. Yet, Khloé and Tristan remain a solid co-parenting team—and the Good American founder only has positive things to say about the father of her children.

Because Khloé and Tristan have prioritized their kids and are dedicated to having an amicable relationship, rumors that they're back together yet again continue to circulate. Dating speculation has been particularly rampant in 2023, prompting Khloé to set the record straight in May. But a string of cryptic Instagram posts in June about drama, people who don’t appreciate you, and letting go left fans wondering: Are they about Tristan?
Khloé posted a series of cryptic messages on Instagram in June 2023.
On June 4, 2023, Khloé took to her Instagram Stories with a series of messages that caught fans' eyes. The first post featured an image of a sunrise with text overlay declaring that there are two types of people. The first group are "people who will appreciate you for giving them a drop of water," and the second are "people who will take you for granted for giving them the entire ocean."
The words of wisdom cautioned that "every time you lower your frequency to meet someone on their level, you will end up paying for it." It also warned that these individuals "won't love you more for giving them an abundance of what they already don't appreciate."
She also addressed the concept of letting go.
The next segment in Khloé's philosophical spree took on the idea of letting go. "Not everything has to make sense," a message written in red on a mattress reads. "Let it go. Choose peace." (What does it mean? Did Tristan let her down again after she supported him in the wake of his mom's death?)
One message touched upon pushing past the guilt and doing what's best for you.
A third image Khloé shared with her Instagram followers featured an image of a butterfly and another cryptic message. "Someone once said: 'You know you have a big heart when you feel bad for doing what is best for you.' And I felt that," it read. (Could Khloé be distancing herself from someone for the sake of her own mental health?)
Another message made it clear that Khloé was over the drama and stress.
Yet another segment of Khloé's Instagram Stories spree on June 4 featured a photo of trees by a serene-looking river. "The older you get, the more you realize you don't want to be around: drama, conflict, stress," the message read. (What drama is she turning her back on?)
The messages come amid speculation that Khloé and Tristan are back together.
In recent months, fans have speculated that Khloé and Tristan are dating again. The rumors came after Kim Kardashian was spotted supporting Tristan at an NBA game following his mom's death. Khloé was also photographed with Tristan on a private plane in Toronto after his mom, Andrea Thompson, died suddenly.
Khloé clarified in May that she and Tristan are not dating again.
On May 16, Khloé set the record straight about her relationship status with Tristan. In the comments section of a Kardashian fan's Instagram account. "Stop pushing this narrative," she wrote, "It's tiring. But I suppose You guys will continue the narrative you want regardless of what I say, so what's the point? It's exhausting but I learned people will only understand to the level of their own perception. Most are stuck at believing the lies because it's the narrative they want to fuel. Have fun …"
Whether or not Khloé's recent cryptic messages are about Tristan, she's made one thing abundantly clear despite the rumors: She and Tristan are not back together but they're dedicated to co-parenting their children. We wish them the best!
