Tristan Thompson may still have a chance at reuniting with Khlo Kardashian, a source tells PEOPLE.
The former couple, who split in February 2019 after Thompson, 28, kissed family friend Jordyn Woods, have been “spending time together” as they raise 17-month-old daughter True, the insider says.
“Tristan has showed more of an interest,” the source says. “He seems to want more than co-parent with Khlo. It seems Khlo has moments when she is toying with the idea of getting back with Tristan.”
However, the source adds that “someone isquick to point out and remind Khlo of his past disrespectful antics” likely referring to Thompson’s scandal with Woods and the allegations that he first cheated on Kardashian, 35, while she was about to give birth to True in April 2018.
“Everyone thinks she deserves better,” the source says. “But it seems Khlo needs a good distraction to fully move on mentally from Tristan. She needs to find a special guy, and so far, she hasn’t.”
It’s not a surprising development for fans ofKeeping Up with the Kardashians. During this season’s premiere in September, Kardashian claimed that Thompson attempted to kiss her while putting True to bed shortly before their daughter’s first birthday party.
He was just kind of lingering He was like, So, do you want to grab a glass of wine?’ she said, adding that Thompson even tried to kiss her after she reluctantly gave him a hug.
I go, This is the problem with you. You cant just take what you get,’ she said. Then this morning he was like, Thank you for letting me see True. She looked great, you looked even better. Sometimes I feel like if I give an inch, hell take a mile and take my kindness for weakness.
