Less than a week ago, news broke that the exes are expecting a second child together, this time via a surrogate. «We can confirm True will have a sibling who was conceived in November,» a representative for Khloe told ET, revealing that their decision to have another child together came before Tristan's paternity scandal broke in December 2021.
