The Kardashians are used to sharing many details of their lives, even if it causes a stir! But one thing Khloé Kardashian has always kept close to her chest is her relationship with cheating ex Tristan Thompson, with whom she shares daughter True and son Tatum.

The only thing the Good American founder maintains is that she is friendly with the NFL star for the sake of their two kids – but is she telling the whole truth? Not according to many fans…

Fans Think Khloé And Tristan Are Back Together After Seeing Gingerbread House Picture On Instagram

Kardashian fans seemingly believe that the mom-of-two is "secretly back together" with the Cleveland Cavaliers veteran backup center, after spotting what they think is a telling detail in one family picture.

The picture in question was shared to Instagram by Travis Barker's stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, and shows a Kardashian family gingerbread house. The house features many of the family's names, including Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Khloé, as well as all of their kids.

Very interestingly, it also features Tristan's name, although Kanye West, who shares North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm with Kim, Scott Disick, who shares Mason, Penelope, and Reign with Kourtney, and Blac Chyna, who shares Dream with Rob Kardashian, are all absent.

Khloé Kardashian Responds To A Concerned Fan

The inclusion of Tristan – who also shares son Prince Oliver with Jordan Craig and son Theo with Maralee Nichols, the latter of whom was conceived while Khloé was pregnant with True! – has therefore made social media convinced that they are a little more than friends.

"I see Tristan is on the gingerbread house. Girl, he ain't gonna change. Be careful," wrote one concerned fan on Instagram, which Khloé actually read and responded to!

"Hey baby. He's my children's father and forever apart [sic] of our family. Thank you though," she responded, followed by the winking face emoji. "Trust me. My kids come first forever and always," she continued, followed by the red heart emoji.

Internet Reactions

"She didn't deny they are together," observed one fan on Reddit. "I noticed that too," replied a second, as a third said: "I think they are secretly together." "She's still with him. This is why she wears his ring, looks after his brother and why he is on the gingerbread house. I've said this for years!" exclaimed a fourth.

"Khloé and Tristan are for sure together everyone," thought a fifth, followed by three crying laughing emojis. The same fan added: "Just not publicly because it's embarrassing for her."

Many others commented on the potential embarrassment of admitting that she had taken him back, if it's true, with a sixth chiming in: "It's crazy how much pride she takes in having that man in her life. 1000% they're still together but keeping it a secret is less humiliating for her. This way he gets to continue doing whatever he wants and I truly think she hasn't dated anyone else because she's still loyal to him."

"Khloé needs to respect herself more. This is seriously sad. Get a backbone, girl!" exclaimed a seventh. "She leans on the excuse of Tristan being the father of her children way too much and is always going too easy on him because of it," thought an eighth.

A ninth added: "It's giving delusional and I'm starting to think something is mentally off with her obsession with TT. Khloé is absolutely pushing her daddy issues on her children. Those kids (especially True) is old enough to realize and respect that Tristan can't be involved and included with everything family related because they are no longer together." A tenth concurred: "Even by Kardashian standards, her attachment with Tristan is so weird to me."
