Kourtney Kardashian Barker wasted no time getting down to the brass tacks with Tristan Thompson.
On the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” the Poosh founder, 44, didn’t hold back her feelings toward the NBA player, and even asked him if he identifies with being a sociopath following his extensive history of cheating on her sister, Khloé Kardashian.
“I see these TikTok videos and there’s these people and they’re like, ‘I am a sociopath narcissist. I have no empathy, no feelings.’ Do you think there’s any part of you that relates to that?” she asked him.
“You should definitely feel the way you feel, 100%, because if it was my sister, I’d feel the same way,” he said. “I think for me, you know, I want Khloé to be happy and whatever that may be, I’m fully supportive of that.”
“I’ve done things to put myself in a position out of that,” he added.
“Yeah, like if the actions don’t match the words, it’s hard to believe the person with the actions,” the eldest Kardashian responded.
Khloé and the Cleveland Cavaliers star broke up for good in June 2021. They share daughter True and son Tatum.
But repairing his reputation within the family circle proves to be a challenge for Thompson, especially when it comes to Kourtney.
The mom of four, who recently welcomed her first child with husband Travis Barker, said the athlete, 32, is fortunate he is to be part of their family, despite his cheating history.
“In this family, you guys are so lucky — all the guys — because for whatever reason, it’s held a higher priority of, ‘Let’s keep everyone happy and getting along, and let’s make sure Tristan is at Christmas Eve and everyone’s there, and it’s one big happy family and let’s make sure everything’s fun and happy,’” she said.
“For some reason, that takes a priority in this family over setting a boundary or having someone’s back or having someone’s side.”
The Lemme founder admitted that she’s been guilty of it herself, adding, “I’ve been a part of this whole thing, but it’s interesting to me when I think about it in a superficial way.”

“We can make sure Khloé looks her best … but really making sure that the person feels supported, stood up for, sets the boundaries they need to set and is supported in that,” she went on.
“And in this family, it’s not [supported]. It’s lucky for you guys and it is great for the kids.”
Determined to get into Kourtney’s good books, Tristan responded, “I’m not proud of the person I used to be. Am I proud of the person I’m becoming? Of course, but in order for that to happen, I had to fall, hit rock bottom, lose everything in life, and really be like, ‘Yo, you gotta pick your s–t up.’”
“I needed to grow so I can be better for my kids,” he added.
New episodes of “The Kardashians” air on Thursdays on Hulu.
