Khloe Kardashian isn’t holding back. On the latest episode of her podcast, The Kardashians star tackled some of the biggest rumors swirling around her—from accusations of excessive photo editing to wild speculation about being a surrogate for her sister Kim.
Khloe on Photoshop: “I Used to Edit Heavily—Now, Not So Much”
One persistent rumor claims Khloe “Photoshops every picture” she posts. Addressing the gossip head-on, she admitted there was a time when she heavily edited her photos—but those days are behind her.
“I don’t Photoshop every picture now, but I definitely used to,” Khloe confessed. “Back then, I was surrounded by people who made me feel like I had to. Plus, it was just the era—everyone was doing it.”
She described falling into the “filter lifestyle,” where she couldn’t imagine posting an unedited photo. Looking back, she cringes at how artificial she looked.
“I looked like a cartoon character,” she said. “It’s embarrassing that I ever thought that was me. I had to reprogram my brain to realize, ‘This isn’t real.’”
These days, Khloe still prefers good lighting and takes multiple shots to find the perfect one—but she no longer relies on heavy editing.
“I Was Never Kim’s Surrogate”
Another bizarre rumor? That Khloe secretly acted as a surrogate for her sister Kim Kardashian.
“I was a surrogate for Kim?!” Khloe laughed in disbelief. “I’ve never been a surrogate for anyone.”
Kim welcomed her first two children, North and Saint, naturally but used a surrogate for Chicago and Psalm due to pregnancy complications. Khloe, meanwhile, carried her daughter True but had her son Tatum via surrogate.
“I’ve had one pregnancy—True,” she clarified. “Tatum was through surrogacy, but that was for me, not Kim.”
Tristan Thompson Rumors: Fake Breakup? Secret Marriage?
Khloe also shut down rumors about her tumultuous relationship with ex Tristan Thompson.
Rumor #1: “I faked our breakup for PR.”
“First of all, I don’t want that kind of attention,” she said. “We’ve been broken up for almost four years—that’s a long con. Not even Meryl Streep could keep up an act that long.”
Rumor #2: “We’re secretly married.”
“I’ve never even heard that one,” Khloe responded. “No, we’re not married—secretly or otherwise.”
Khloe and Tristan’s relationship was famously rocky, plagued by multiple cheating scandals. Despite brief reconciliations, they split for good in 2021 after Tristan fathered a child with another woman while Khloe was expecting Tatum via surrogate.
