KEY POINTS

Khloe Kardashian is finally done with ex Tristan Thompson following his latest cheating scandal, a report says.
The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star has had an on-again, off-again relationship with the NBA player since they first started dating in 2016, with Thompson having been involved in a number of cheating scandals throughout their time together.
However, an unnamed source recently told Us Weekly that Kardashian, 37, has no plans to ever rekindle their relationship after Thompson, 30, admitted in court documents to having sex with Maralee Nichols in March 2021, when he was still dating the reality star, and after a paternity test confirmed that he is the father of Nichols' newborn son.
"Tristan wants to make everything right with Khloe," the tipster said. "He wants to win her back, but she will never take him back romantically after learning about his cheating. This was the final straw."
Thompson initially denied claims that he fathered the child Nichols welcomed last month.
However, Thompson posted a message on social media Monday admitting that he is the father of the former personal trainer's son and claiming that he plans to be involved in the child's life.
"Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols. I take full responsibility for my actions," he wrote on his Instagram Stories. "Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son."
In a subsequent post, the Sacramento Kings player issued an apology to Kardashian, saying she "doesn't deserve this."
"You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you," he wrote. "I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry."
Kardashian and Thompson share 3-year-old daughter True. He also has a 5-year-old son, Prince, with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig,
The former "Revenge Body" host hasn't publicly addressed Thompson's apology.
However, the insider told Us Weekly that Kardashian is "staying strong" for her daughter, adding, "Her family and best friends are really her biggest support system."
Thompson was previously caught cheating with multiple women in 2018, when Kardashian was pregnant with their daughter. They stayed together at the time, but they split the following year after the athlete kissed Kardashian family friend Jordyn Woods.
In 2020, Kardashian and Thompson rekindled their romance while quarantining together during the pandemic, but they called it quits once more in June 2021.
At the time, an unnamed insider told Us Weekly that there was "no drama" between them and that "things just didn't work out."
