Khloé Kardashian, a well-known member of the Kardashian-Jenner family, recently revealed something unexpected about her youngest son, Tatum. In an episode of the “SHE MD” podcast, Khloé shared that Tatum bears a striking resemblance to her brother, Rob Kardashian. This resemblance caught everyone’s attention, including Tatum’s father, Tristan Thompson. The resemblance was so uncanny that Tristan decided to take three separate paternity tests to confirm that he is indeed Tatum’s biological father.

Tatum’s Strong Resemblance to Uncle Rob Raises Questions

During the podcast, Khloé explained that Tatum, who was born via surrogate, looks so much like her brother Rob that it made her and Tristan wonder if there had been a mix-up in the surrogacy process. The resemblance was so strong that Khloé couldn’t help but question whether everything had gone as planned at the fertility clinic.

“My son looks just like my brother,” Khloé shared, jokingly asking Rob if there could have been a mix-up. While she knew it was unlikely, the resemblance was strong enough to make her consider the possibility. Rob found the situation amusing and assured her that there had been no such mistake.

Tristan Thompson’s Reaction: Three Paternity Tests to Be Sure

Understandably, Tristan Thompson, the father of both Tatum and Khloé’s daughter True, was unsettled by Khloé’s jest. The thought of a potential mix-up at the fertility clinic pushed him to take action. He underwent three separate paternity tests to confirm his role as Tatum’s biological father and to eliminate any doubts.

Despite the momentary questioning, the paternity tests ultimately affirmed that Tristan is indeed Tatum’s father. This confirmation allowed them to move forward without any lingering uncertainty.

Surrogacy Challenges and Co-Parenting With Tristan

Khloé’s surrogacy journey faced its challenges. While preparing for Tatum’s arrival, she learned that Tristan had fathered another child with Maralee Nichols, which naturally caused tension in their relationship. However, Khloé has always respected Tristan’s role as a father and prioritized co-parenting in a positive environment.

In an interview, Khloé described Tristan as a dedicated father who remains actively involved in their children’s lives. She acknowledged his past mistakes while emphasizing his commitment to their five-year-old daughter, True, and their 21-month-old son, Tatum. “We’re not meant to be together, but he definitely was meant to be the father of my children,” Khloé said, reflecting on their co-parenting relationship and the effort they put into raising their kids together.
