Khloé Kardashian Launches 6-Episode 'The Girls' on Hulu, Disney+ as 'The Kardashians' Season 8 Nears

Q: What shocking Tristan Thompson confession did Khloe Kardashian make on her new show that has fans questioning her family dynamics?

The remark that sparked the reaction was Khloé Kardashian saying on *The Girls* that she “wouldn’t care if Kim hooked up with Tristan” Thompson — but only if Khloé had explicitly given her blessing and the relationship was fully over. She made the comment during a conversation about Olivia Pierson going on a blind date with Yris Palmer’s ex-husband. As the group discussed whether dating a friend’s ex was acceptable with permission, Khloé said, “If I gave permission, I give permission. The baton is passed.” The line surprised fans because Tristan is not just an ex-boyfriend but the father of Khloé’s two children, True and Tatum, and their relationship was marked by repeated cheating scandals. That history made the idea of a sister dating him feel jarring to viewers and prompted speculation online about how the family views boundaries and loyalty. Khloé quickly softened the comment on the show, clarifying that she was not literally endorsing Kim and Tristan as a match. She said she meant that when a chapter is truly closed and there is still love and respect, she could theoretically want someone she cares about to be with the “best person” she could think of. Even with that clarification, the original comment was the part that drew the strongest fan reaction.

All six episodes of Khloé Kardashian’s new unscripted series “The Girls” premiered Friday on Hulu and Disney+, shifting focus from her family to six friends navigating motherhood, dating, business and friendship.
Kardashian said she deliberately stayed off center as executive producer and narrator, aiming to avoid another Kardashian spinoff even as she appears onscreen and family members including Kim and Kylie make organic cameos.
The show’s main tension came from cliques and unexpected conflict within the group, with Kardashian saying Natalie Halcro and Yris Palmer repeatedly clashed and a Las Vegas trip triggered more fighting than she anticipated.
Kardashian said producing friends proved more personal than filming family, leaving her to mediate off-camera anxiety and disputes while also suggesting she may pursue more reality projects outside her family.
The interview also disclosed that season 8 of “The Kardashians” will premiere in October, while season 3 of her podcast “Khloé in Wonder Land” is due later this year.
