She just can’t shake him off. Khloé Kardashian’s relationship with baby daddy Tristan Thompson has been rocky, to say the least, after he was publicly unfaithful on two occasions. Although the 35-year-old has made strides to move on from her former flame, sources told In Touch exclusively that Tristan, 28, is still working to get Khloé back.

“Tristan hasn’t given up on Khloé and is always playing mind games with her,” the insider explained. “She is too easy on him and can’t be cold to him because she always wants to keep a happy home for True. That’s why she can never completely cut him off.”

Although we have seen Tristan out about with members of the Kardashian clan in recent weeks, the source added that the Kar-Jenners don’t think the NBA player deserves another shot at love. “Tristan knows that the family doesn’t want them back together, so he is trying to weasel his way back.” Though the fam might not think Tristan fits in, close ally Jonathan Cheban admitted he doesn’t mind him. “I like the guy. I like his vibe. I could hang out with him and go to the mall with him,” the 45-year-old said on his podcast “Foodgod: OMFG.”

Tristan’s thirst for the blonde beauty is ever-present as he made a flirty comment on one of her sexy photos on Saturday, September 22. “Perfection,” wrote the athlete before quickly deleting his sentiment. This is not Tristan’s first attempt at getting on Khloé’s good side. She shared on KUWTK that he tried to make a move on her prior to True’s first birthday.

“He’s like, ‘Do you want to grab a glass of wine?’ I’m like, ‘It must say dumb f—king whore on my forehead,’” she recalled of their meeting. “And then he’s like, ‘Can I have a hug?’ So, I one-arm hugged him, but that’s not enough. He tried to kiss me. I’m like, ‘That’s the problem with you. You can’t just take what you get.’” Apparently, the hunk didn’t get the hint as Khloé said he texted her in the morning. “‘Thank you for letting me see True. She looked great, and you looked even better,’” read the message. Although he’s putting in the effort, do you think Khloé will ever come around?
