Kourtney Kardashian’s Daughter Picked Up Her Tristan Thompson Dislike

Kourtney Kardashian needs to work on her poker face if she doesn’t want her kids to mirror her dislike for Tristan Thompson.

During a new episode of The Kardashians, which started streaming on Thursday, November 2, Kourtney, 44, told her 11-year-old daughter, Penelope, that Khloé Kardashian would pick her up from their Palm Springs home.

“P, [Khloé] is going to come grab you on the golf cart. Tristan is with them. Is that OK?” she asked Penelope, who responded, “Yeah, I’m fine.”

Kourtney elaborated on why Penelope might not want to spend time with Tristan, 32, telling the cameras, “I feel like she gets it from me. I told her — on the first day of school — [that] I was so triggered by him. I don’t know why.”

According to the Poosh founder, Tristan has been forgiven for a lot by their family.

“I feel like we all brush it off and are fine. I was just so triggered and I was like, ‘I just can’t do it anymore. I just can’t,’” Kourtney recalled. “Tristan has made horrible decisions and choices with my sister. There’s times when I am so triggered by him that I cannot be around him. Then there’s times where I just let it go because we just want harmony. He’s the father of my niece and nephew.”

Tristan spoke with Penelope when he arrived at Kourtney’s house with Khloé, 39. Penelope, however, offered a greeting to Tristan before turning away in the other direction.

“Khloe and Tristan have definitely worked out this rhythm.

Kim, 43, meanwhile, called Tristan a “really good person and friend” for stepping up to help her.

“I know guys are gonna hate me for this and you’re gonna hate us and you’re gonna think Khloé is whatever,” Kim, who shares North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4, with Kanye West, said on the Hulu series. “It’s so crazy because he’s such a good friend and he’s such a good, like, Dad, but he just couldn’t get it together in that area of, like, being a faithful boyfriend.”

“I am really proud of myself for where me and Tristan are and how I am able to allow him to be the father he wants to be.

And good for you, girl.”

Khloé said she has hopes that Penelope will learn from her mistakes.

“I want Penelope to have these feelings, and I don’t want to talk her out of them. I don’t want this behavior to be something that I am validating or I am justifying,” she continued. “I want her to know that how she is feeling is the right way to feel. We shouldn’t accept someone treating us like this.”
