According to OK! Magazine, Tristan Thompson is back together with Khloe Kardashian following his weekend signing with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Thompson, 32, lives next door to Kardashian, 38, and the two are said to spend a lot of time together when he visits their children.
Thompson is able to spend more time at home now that he has left his ESPN analyst seat to return to the NBA, and he is said to act like Kardashian’s husband in private.
Thompson allegedly sought Kardashian’s forgiveness after cheating on her while they were expecting a second child via surrogate.
He now wants nothing more than to be a family, and according to the magazine’s source, keeping him hanging is the only way Kardashian can maintain control.

Tristan Thompson can’t date other people
They are also said to be acting like an exclusive couple, with no permission to see other people.
Thompson’s multiple infidelities have strained their relationship for years.
He cheated on the pregnant Kardashian with a stripper in 2018, but Khloe forgave him.
She was married to Thompson until February of this year, and they have been dating on and off since then.

How does this affect the Lakers?
Thompson’s arrival in Los Angeles is simply to provide another veteran presence that LeBron James trusts ahead of the playoffs.
Thompson is unlikely to be a factor on the floor because he hasn’t played all season, but he will be able to help role players succeed with his advice.
If everything in the Thompson-Kardashian household is in order, the big man should be content in the locker room.
However, negative energy from family issues could contaminate the Purple & Gold squad as they prepare to face the Minnesota Timberwolves in the play-in tournament.
