Khloé Kardashian has spoken out following Tristan Thompson paternity scandal scenes which aired on The Kardashians this week.

The series finale (which came to screens on Thursday 16th June) includes footage of the moment Khloé found out about Tristan's relationship with Maralee Nichols, with whom he fathered a child, and fans were heartbroken over Khloé's reaction.

Following the scenes, Khloé has spoken out about what she's called a "tough episode", sharing an insight into how she's feeling about the situation now.

If you need a reminder, Tristan made headlines back in December when personal trainer Maralee Nichols alleged she had given birth to his child, after getting pregnant while he was in a relationship with Khloé. A month later, Tristan took to Instagram Stories on 4 January to confirm: "Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols."

Tristan went on, "I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son."

Scenes in the Kardashians finale saw Khloé finding out about Tristan's paternity lawsuit for the first time, crying down the phone to Kim and revealing that she "found out [about the scandal] with the rest of the world".

Now, Khloé has taken to Twitter to speak out about the heartbreaking footage. She wrote, "This was definitely a tough episode but there’s so much beauty in watching how close my family is. We [will] always stick together and love one another deeply."

The 37-year-old went on, sharing a message about "forgiveness". She told followers, "Life is full of lessons, teachable moments. We should handle them with grace/love. Even if we are hurt by them.

"Take [your] moment, cry/scream but remain composed & remember that Love heals & teaches more than anger or hate ever will. We all deserve forgiveness and most of all… LOVE."

Here's hoping Khloé is doing OK.
