Khloe Kardashian Has a Coy Response to Fan Who Suggested She Date Women

Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors

Khloé Kardashian had a coy response after a fan suggested she date women.

On Wednesday, May 1, the reality star took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to do a Q&A with her followers, reacting to nearly every tweet with candor.

One tweet in particular was of a screenshot of a text message superimposed over a cropped photo of Beyoncé in a suit in tie in support of her new album, Cowboy Carter.

"I still think Khloé should be a lesbian," the text read, which Kardashian responded to with an open-ended answer.

"Well you never know what my future holds 🤸," the Kardashians star replied.

The Good American founder's dating life has been in the spotlight for years. After her marriage (and subsequent divorce) to Lamar Odom played out in the public eye, Kardashian moved on to Tristan Thompson in 2016.

Kardashian and Thompson's relationship has been nothing but messy through the years, due to the NBA star's multiple affairs. One tryst in particular resulted in a child: son Theo, whom Thompson shares with Maralee Nichols.

Kardashian and Thompson had already done an embryo transfer with their surrogate after the news of Nichols' pregnancy broke. The couple welcomed son Tatum in August 2022, roughly eight months after Theo's birth. (Thompson and Kardashian — who split for good after the Hulu star found out about Thompson fathered Theo — are also parents of 6-year-old daughter True; Thompson is also dad to son Prince with ex Jordan Craig.)

"Khloé, you don't deserve this," Thompson wrote in his public apology to Kardashian in January 2022. "You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you."

Just over a year later, Kardashian revealed she was single in another X Q&A. "Who has time for a man lol," she tweeted in February 2023. "I have a 6-month-old baby and True and I are sickly codependent on one another. Ha! I secretly love it."
