![]() The shot returns to present-day Khloé, who says, “there was just something I wasn’t ready to talk about,” and explains that she’d known, even then, that there was not one, but two babies on the way. “That day, when you guys were shooting with Kim about Tristan, when you found out that Tristan was having a baby with somebody else,” she begins-and the shot cuts to a flashback from the first season: Kim on the phone in her workout room, hearing the news, and calling others in the family to announce it. The first four minutes of the episode kick off with Kim and Khloé discussing whether “it’s time” for Khloé to “talk about it.” What, exactly, is “it?” Suspense builds until we meet Khloé in a confessional, where she tearfully tells the camera that there was more to the story in last June’s season finale. ![]() Khloé’s Multi-Layered Exposition About the Betrayal ![]() Here are three things that kept me up after the sophomore season premiere of The Kardashians. Existential gloom pervades the episode-even in scenes intended to incite hope-so for those who critique the Kardashians for their “hyper-curated” narratives, these bracing 45 minutes might offer some compensatory realness. That betrayal would be painful enough for the matriarchy without the added revelation that Khloé and Tristan had, only “days before,” become pregnant with their future son through a surrogate. Tristan Thompson, Khloé’s longtime on-and-off partner and the father of her first child, True, is discovered to be having a baby with another woman. Four months have passed since the first season of The Kardashians ended, and we’re back for season two with a premiere centered on Khloe’s most recent-and perhaps most epic-public heartbreak.
