It didn’t take long for Khloé Kardashian to get dragged into Tristan Thompson’s paternity drama!
As we reported, the Cleveland Cavaliers player filed a libel lawsuit against Kimberly Alexander (above, insert), the woman who accused him of fathering her 4-year-old son. Now, a source close to the KarJenner klan claims to Us Weekly that KoKo is “involved” because Tristan’s purported baby momma is personally attacking the KUWTK star with lies!
The confidante told the outlet:
“Khloé is involved because she was being personally attacked.”
Just how was Khlo being “personally attacked,” you ask?

Well, as you may recall, Tristan’s attorney, Marty Singer, claimed in the suit that Alexander had “refused to accept the results” of the DNA test the athlete took in January and “falsely accused [him] and others allegedly acting on his behalf, including Khloé Kardashian, the mother of Thompson’s daughter, of manipulating the results.” Singer insisted this claim was nothing but “a malicious lie.”
In order to clear his name, Thompson reportedly demanded a “trial by jury.” He’s also seeking unspecified damages from Alexander, whom he described as “a wannabe social media influencer and pornographic model/performer who is so desperate to achieve her 15 minutes of fame that she recently fabricated a false claim that [he] is the father of her nearly 5-year-old son.”
Ouch.
Although the NBA star “did not believe that he was the child’s father,” according to the lawsuit,” Tristan confirmed that he voluntarily took a paternity test at “a reputable, accredited DNA lab,” where the results “conclusively determined that Thompson is not the father of Alexander’s child.”
Alexander, for her part, previously claimed that the issue initially stemmed from Tristan using a “Kardashian-associated DNA testing facility” as opposed to a “neutral setting for the DNA testing.

She explained to E! News earlier this month:
“I feel like the whole issue originally stemmed from Tristan not wanting to choose a neutral setting for the DNA testing and using a Kardashian-associated DNA testing facility. I feel as if you really have nothing to hide then why not just go to a neutral testing site? And we both know what happened and exactly what went on between us. That’s all I can say for now.”
The OnlyFans performer has yet to publicly address Thompson’s lawsuit against her.
Khloé’s also been keeping tight-lipped, but we’re sure she’ll post a cryptic tweet or two soon enough!
