Fan Theories About Tristan Thompson and Jordyn Woods’ Cheating Scandal Will Make You Rethink Everything
The drama is real with the Khloé Kardashian–Tristan Thompson–Jordyn Woods scandal. With the news breaking that the NBA athlete and model had hooked up behind Koko’s back to reports that Jordyn has moved out of BFF Kylie Jenner‘s home, we’ve been on the edge of our seats for days. But some fans think that the tea might be a little too hot to be real. Instead, more imaginative people have concocted seriously wild conspiracy theories that this all may be the contrived plot of a future Keeping Up with the Kardashians episode. Other fans have different theories about what exactly is going on behind the scenes — but they’ve all left us shook AF.
As they say, the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder. So is she behind all of this? Is mama Kris the official Kardashian Konspiracy Kween? We can’t say just yet — but some of the theories these fans are peddling are pretty convincing. Check out all the wildest theories in the gallery.

It’s all just Kris’ handiwork.
“Wait are we really believing Jordyn would do that to the Kardashian family?” tweeted one fan. “I find it more believable that this is the work of Kris lmfao.”

Alternate theory: They wanted to catch the cheater in the act.
“My other theory is that they made Jordyn hook up with Tristan to see if he’d still cheat, to prove to Khloé he would and he did and all this is just an act because they need something for their new season,” they continued.
We’d buy it!

Does ‘KUWTK’ need a ratings boost?
“Hi, here’s a conspiracy theory,” added another fan. “The whole ‘Tristan cheated on Khloé with Jordyn’ thing is fake and all made up by Kris to save KUWTK from dying because it’s running out of ways to stay relevant. So this whole drama was created just to be used as a new storyline for the show.”
If that’s true, it worked. There’s no way we’re not tuning in next season.

MY THEORY: khloe was personally fully done the first time he cheated. kris said no way if he’s gonna cheat we’re gonna get something out of it. you can fake it for 10 mos, then right before the new season we’ll drop it for publicity and to get people talking about jordyn.

It was secretly a long-con.
“My theory: Khloé was personally fully done the first time he cheated,” read another tweet. “Kris said, ‘No way, if he’s gonna cheat, we’re gonna get something out of it. You can fake it for 10 months, then right before the new season, we’ll drop it for publicity and to get people talking about Jordyn.'”
That’s one reason to stay with a cheater!

guarantee there’s some “oh it was a misunderstanding” that gets jordyn off the hook once everybody knows her name, and i guarantee there was some sort of arrangement with tristan to fake this as a lil redemption for the other times. ✌🏼✌🏼

What’s in it for Jordyn?
“Money def changed hands between them and Jordyn,” the fan continued. “Gets people talking before the new season, on Kylie’s site to see if her collab is still up, and sets Jordyn up for a spin-off career a la Kim from Paris. Guarantee there’s some, ‘Oh, it was a misunderstanding,’ that gets Jordyn off the hook once everybody knows her name, and I guarantee there was some sort of arrangement with Tristan to fake this as a lil redemption for the other times.”
Tristan could definitely do with a redemption storyline.

She was just playing bait.
“My theory is that Khloé set a trap and enlisted Jordyn as the one to act it out,” a fan sent their friend in a text. “She wanted to see if Tristan was actually loyal now or if he was still a cheater so she had Jordyn go to the party and try and get with Tristan. And he did and Jordyn spilled the tea and now Khloé knows he’s a POS.”
Who else is convinced?

My conspiracy theory is: Khloe and Tristan have been over for months. Kris tells them to wait to announce the split. Tells Jordyn here’s KUWK $ &screen time. Plants story. 1month before the season starts, at the end of filming, to carry it into following season.

Kris is hard at work once more.
“My conspiracy theory is: Khloé and Tristan have been over for months,” another fan said, referencing recent reports. “Kris tells them to wait to announce the split. Tells Jordyn here’s KUWTK [money] & screen time. Plants story one month before the season starts, at the end of filming, to carry it into following season.”
Gotta admit, the timing is strategic.

my theory is that kris jenner knew how much of a scum tristan thompson is so she did her devil’s magic and called drake to invite jordyn woods and tristan to his party, and paid jordyn to hook up with him as a publicity STUNT so khloe can end things with him for GOOD
— tyler iacona (@tyleriacona) February 21, 2019
my mind
Drake was in on the whole trap.
“My theory is that Kris Jenner knew how much of a scum Tristan Thompson is, so she did her devil’s magic and called Drake to invite Jordyn Woods and Tristan to his party, and paid Jordyn to hook up with him as publicity STUNT so Khloé can end things with him for GOOD.”
Drake does love the drama.

so no ones considered the theory that khole (with the help of mastermind kris jenner and the rest of the kardashian clan) set tristan up to see if he’d cheat? and used jordyn as bait? what if everyone’s in on it and it was just tristan’s death day? idk tho it’s killing me.

They pulled a ‘John Tucker Must Die’ on Tristan.
“So no one’s considered the theory that Khloé (with the help of mastermind Kris Jenner and the rest of the Kardashian clan) set Tristan up to see if he’d cheat?” suggested a fan. “And used Jordyn as bait? What if everyone’s in on it and it was just Tristan’s death day? IDK, though, it’s killing me.”
Would that make Jordyn the Brittany Snow of the plot?

Conspiracy theory: jordyn woods has been planning this scandal as revenge for the racist ass, fetishizing ass antiblackness she probs had to endure all these years
— nia (@blackverucasalt) February 21, 2019
Jordyn Woods concocted the whole scheme.
“Conspiracy theory: Jordyn Woods has been planning this scandal as revenge for the racist ass, fetishizing ass anti-blackness she probs had to endure all these years,” said another fan, referencing the Kardashians’ cultural appropriate scandals.

Jordyn wasn’t born into the family — she was made.
“Alternative Jordyn-Tristan theory,” wrote another. “This is all just a hazing for Jordyn’s initiation into the 10% Klub.”

All the details are there.
“Here’s why,” they continued. “I really have a hard time believing that Jordyn Woods would be stupid or mean enough to hook up with Tristan Thompson. At this point, she’s sort of an adjunct to the family — which makes her an available character for dramatic storylines and ultimately another person to make money off of.”

It gets deep.
“But Jordyn wasn’t going to generate enough interest just being Kylie’s nice, pretty friend for much longer, so they had to do something to raise her profile and make her intriguing *on her own.* They also probably wanted to get Tristan out of the picture in a way that made him seem very unsympathetic while allowing Khloé to be totally faultless.”

Seriously, they’ve thought this through.
“So a storyline with both of those ‘characters’ was born — Jordyn and Tristan, doesn’t matter if it seems unlikely or makes no sense. People still believe it. Then they hold suspense while we wait to see what fallout happens — who unfollows who, who writes what apology note — and if it turns out this was all just a rumor or misunderstanding, Jordyn will have been made more interesting, and now she’ll be redeemed.”

In the end, Jordyn wins.
“[It will be] making her infinitely more profitable and bringing a new major character and source of recurring revenue into the fold forever,” they finished. “Thank you for coming to Stormi World; we hope you enjoyed the ride.”
And what a ride it was!

It might just be all in the stars.
“Tristan Thompson is just another example proving that pisces men ain’t s–t. Get those demons away!” wrote one astrologically-minded fan. “Also Jordyn isn’t off the hook either. She’s just helping prove my theory that all libras are thots. I said what I said; don’t @ me.”
Okay, but what are their moon signs?

Let’s let the master figure it out.
Ultimately, though, one fan knew there was only one person who can get to the bottom of all of this. “@shanedawson, can you do a conspiracy theory about Khloé, Jordyn, and Tristan?”
