Khloe Kardashian is reportedly still grappling with the emotional aftermath of her split from Tristan Thompson, with sources suggesting the reality star’s heartbreak has left lasting scars.
An insider close to Khloe revealed that her experiences during their tumultuous relationship have profoundly impacted her ability to move forward. “A lot of people in her life think she’s dealing with PTSD from how terribly Tristan treated her,” the source shared, noting that Khloe’s fear of being hurt again may be holding her back from finding new love.
Despite putting on a brave face, Khloe’s inner circle believes the pain from her past relationship still lingers. “Khloe insists she’s happy and says she’ll meet someone naturally when the time is right,” the source said. “But deep down, it seems like she’s struggling to let go of the heartbreak.”
Khloe and Tristan began their relationship in 2016, but their romance was repeatedly overshadowed by public cheating scandals. In 2018, Khloe ended the relationship after multiple betrayals, yet the two remain in each other’s lives as co-parents to their children, True and Thompson.
In a previous interview with tmrw magazine, Khloe reflected on her dynamic with Tristan. “Would it be easy to never talk to him again and just badmouth him? Of course,” she said, emphasizing that choosing kindness—even in the face of pain—is far more challenging.
While Khloe remains focused on her children and her personal growth, those closest to her hope she can find healing and eventually open her heart to love again.
