Khloe Kardashian hasn't spoken out about Tristan Thompson's drug scandal

Khloe Kardashian is yet to speak out on Tristan Thompson's latest scandal, with one expert suggesting she is hoping it will "eventually fizzle out".

The 32-year-old Cleveland Cavaliers player has been suspended by the NBA for 25 games after violating the league's strict anti-drug policy. Tristan tested positive for banned substances ibutamoren and SARM LGD-4033, which are used as performance enhancers.

This latest scandal comes after Tristan hit the headlines for cheating on his ex-girlfriend Khloe. The 39-year-old reality star hasn't addressed the drama publicly and relationship expert Louella Alderson doesn't believe she will.

Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Louella said: "It's unlikely that Khloe Kardashian will publicly speak about Tristan Thompson's alleged involvement in a drugs scandal. The Kardashian family is known for trying to keep scandals as private as they can.

"Tristan's drug scandal has been made public, but it hasn't received a huge amount of media attention, and it's likely that Khloe wants to keep it that way. If she comments on this, she will only bring more attention to it. However, she might be hoping that if she publicly ignores it, the story will eventually fizzle out."

The Mirror has contacted Khloe's representatives for comment.

Throughout his romance with Khloe, Tristan was caught up in cheating scandals. When Khloe was pregnant with their first child, he was caught kissing a woman at a bar. He also kissed Kylie Jenner's best friend, Jordyn Woods.

While Khloe and Tristan moved passed the scandals, the drama wasn't over. Tristan fathered a child with another woman behind Khloe's back, leading to the end of their romance.

The couple have since worked on co-parenting their two children - True and Tatum. Louella told us Tristan's latest scandal shouldn't affect their parenting. "Khloe has forgiven Tristan for cheating on her while pregnant, so given this drug scandal does not affect her directly, it may not have a significant impact on their co-parenting relationship. She has always put their kids first and maintains a good relationship with Tristan for their sake," the expert explained.

She added: "However, it's likely that Khloe and Tristan have had discussions about the situation privately and are handling it within their co-parenting relationship. If this is the case, they may have already come to a resolution or plan for how to address the scandal with their children in the future if necessary.

"Tristan's use of performance-enhancing drugs could also potentially affect their kids if it creates an unstable environment for them. Khloe will likely put her children's well-being first and do her best to ensure they aren’t exposed to any harmful situations."
