Tristan Thompson has revealed new details about a private conversation involving Khloé Kardashian, claiming she once pushed him toward getting a vasectomy ahead of their split in 2021.

Appearing on a recent episode of her podcast Khloé in Wonder Land, the former NBA star reflected on his decision making at the time, saying, 

“I already have enough baby mommas, I don’t want no more.”

The Good American founder responded on air, taking partial credit for influencing the choice, she said, 

“And who helped you fix that decision? That was me. Tristan may have had a little ultimatum from me.”

Meanwhile, the Canadian athlete acknowledged her influence, adding, “Sometimes you have to get forced into the right decision.”

During the chat, he also mentioned that he does not plan to have more children and noted, 

“I think I signed off for two embryos. So, I mean, if I do have more kids, it'd be coming from you.”

He further said he would be cautious about introducing future partners to his children, explaining, 

“It’s a hard no. I'll just say I don't think it's wise for parents to introduce a boyfriend or a girlfriend to their kids unless you're going to get married to them.”

For the unversed, the former couple, who share two children, daughter True, 8, and son Tatum, 3, ended their on-and-off relationship in 2021 following infidelity claims and paternity scandal fallout.
