The NBA star Tristan Thompson sat down with his ex Khloé Kardashian on the May 28 episode of her podcast Khloé in Wonder Land for a very honest talk. The former couple, who ended their relationship in 2021, discussed how they raise their two children together. Thompson also shared a major personal decision about his future family plans.
The 35-year-old athlete revealed he got a vasectomy. He admitted the choice came after a strong push from Kardashian, 41. The conversation gave fans a clear look at how the exes now work as a team for their kids.
Thompson and Kardashian Share Daughter True and Son Tatum
Tristan Thompson and Khloé Kardashian have two children together. Their daughter True Thompson is 8 years old. Their son Tatum Thompson is 3 years old. The former NBA player is also a father to two other sons from past relationships. He has Prince, 9, with his ex Jordan Craig. He also has Theo, 4, with Maralee Nichols.
On the podcast, Thompson made it clear that his family with Kardashian is his main focus. He does not want to have children with anyone else. He already has “enough baby moms” and does not want more.
Khloé Kardashian Pushed Thompson to Get Vasectomy
The most talked about moment from the podcast came when Khloé Kardashian explained how she helped Tristan Thompson decide to get a vasectomy. She did not hide the fact that she gave him an ultimatum.
“Tristan may have had a little ultimatum from me. Sometimes you have to get forced into the right decision.” – Khloé Kardashian on her podcast
Thompson laughed about the situation. He joked, “Sometimes you gotta lay them nuts on the table.” But he also got serious about why he agreed to the procedure. He admitted he can be stubborn. He said he learns from experience rather than just listening to advice.
“I’ve been a little hardheaded at times. I wish I wasn’t as stubborn. No more kids, unless it’s coming from Khloé’s embryos.” – Tristan Thompson
The basketball star made his position clear. He will not have more children with a new partner. The only way he would expand his family is if Kardashian uses the embryos they made together while they were still a couple.
Khloé Kardashian Legally Owns Their Frozen Embryos
The conversation also covered the frozen embryos the pair created. Khloé Kardashian told listeners that Tristan Thompson signed over all legal rights to her. She is the sole owner of the embryos. This means any future decision about using them is completely up to her.
Kardashian also revealed she made sure Thompson saved some of his sperm just in case. She explained her thinking. If he gets married one day and his new wife wants kids, the option is there. But Thompson quickly shut down the idea of reversing his vasectomy. He said he has no plans to go through with that.

Thompson said he wants to show other parents that a romantic relationship is not needed to raise children well. The biggest challenge was not about making coparenting work. It was about both of them being mature enough to move past the pain of their breakup.
Kardashian agreed. She said Thompson will always have a place in their children’s lives as long as he does his job as a father. She does not want to create unnecessary problems. The more family events they celebrate together, the better it is for True and Tatum.
