Khloe Kardashian wasn't "comfortable accepting" Tristan Thompson's marriage proposal nearly two years ago.
'The Kardashians' star didn't even tell her family the NBA player - with whom she has daughter True, 4, and a 2-month-old son - had asked her to be his wife in December 2020. She didn't feel "proud" of their relationship following cheating scandals including a kiss with half-sister Kylie Jenner's former best friend Jordyn Woods.
The 38-year-old beauty told her sister Kim Kardashian, 41, on their Hulu reality show: "I said, 'I need to make sure this is a totally different relationship because I wanna be proud to say I'm engaged to anyone', and that's why I said, 'I'm not comfortable accepting this right now because I'm not excited to tell my family.'
"And as hurtful as that probably was for him to hear, it was the truth. I'm not ever gonna accept something or give someone false hope, and I said that to him."
