The relationship of Khloe Kardashian, 35, and Tristan Thompson, 28, was revealed to the public on September 2016. Since then, their romance was hounded with various controversies including two cheating scandals. Recently, the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star and the Canadian professional basketball player sparked reunion rumors after they were, reportedly, caught flirting with each other on social media.

Netizens noticed Tristan leaving a flirty comment on Khloe’s Instagram. On Friday, the younger sister of Kim Kardashian shared a photo of her looking sexy like Ann Nicole Smith. “Fit,” the athlete commented on the snap, which featured the reality star wearing a strapless top and oversized pants and jacket. Tristin even added two fire emojis in his statement.

Fans were quick to notice Tristan Thompson’s comment, with some telling him to leave Khloe Kardashian alone. "If she takes you back she deserves you. And you deserve her,” one fan said. "Stop it. Please don't go back,” another wrote.

Reports about Khloe and Tristan’s reunion made rounds after a source close to Kendall Jenner’s half-sister claimed to People that she is “toying” with the idea of getting back with the NBA star. Though avid followers of the reality star have lambasted Tristan for his flirty comment, the Cleveland Cavaliers player refused to give up.

In another post, Khloe Kardashian stood in front of the sun and wrote "May you have the courage to explore every dream you dream" in the caption. Tristan Thompson swiftly gave another gushing compliment on his former ladylove. "The sun is shining bright on a beautiful [diamond emoji],” he wrote.

Neither Khloe nor Tristan has confirmed the reports saying that they are officially back together now up to this writing. Hence, devoted followers of the two should take these unverified reports lightly until everything is proven true and correct.

To recall, TMZ reported that Tristan Thompson cheated on Khloe Kardashian with Kylie Jenner’s best friend, Jordyn Woods, 22. The entire Kardashian-Jenner clan was enraged after the news broke. However, the basketball player denied the allegation by posting “FAKE NEWS” on his official Twitter account.

Khloe, in March 2019, broke her silence about the cheating issue in the wake of Jordyn’s interview on Jada Pinkett Smith’s “Red Table Talk” show. “Why are you lying @jordynwoods ?? If you’re going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up!” she wrote on Twitter, at the time.
