KHLOE Kardashian opened up about the aftermath of Tristan Thompson’s scandals, slamming trolls for “spewing venom.”
The former couple share daughter True, but broke up after Tristan publicly cheating on Khloe more than once.
Khloe, 37, opened up to Variety about a wide array of topics, including the challenges she’s faced as a result of Tristan’s infidelity.
She confessed to the magazine that she was subject to “so much finger pointing,” adding: “That’s a heavy thing to carry.”
Delving deeper into that particular topic, Khloe told Variety: “I think it says a lot.
“Everyone has their problems, so you don’t have to point the finger at anyone, but to make it the woman’s responsibility, it’s really sad.
“And it says a lot about our society that people would rather spew venom, as opposed to some sort of sensitivity or compassion, or just nothing at all.”
Khloe went on: “There is also a way to report something that’s happening without making somebody that reason why it happened.
“You don’t have to point the finger really at anyone.
“I just think the media has to be more responsible, but they’re so desperate click bait, I guess.”
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum added: “It’s sad and it puts so much on the women’s shoulders emotionally.
“It’s a big burden to carry, and I don’t think people realize what it does psychologically to the women.
“And then men, it’s almost like another notch on their belt because they’re kind of celebrated in a way.
“But this is nothing new. It’s always been the boys’ club. I feel like it’s been like this for quite a long time.”
BIG REVEAL
During the same interview, Khloe was asked about keeping quiet about Tristan’s cheating and the fact that he fathered a child with another woman – Maralee Nichols – during his relationship with her.
She noted that while she hasn’t publicly commented on it thus far, she plans to address it on the Kardashians’ new Hulu series.
“It will be addressed on the show. We try as a family to protect the privacy of our partners or significant others, since they didn’t really sign up for this; we did.
“But if something is really public like this was, it would be strange if Tristan was a part of the show and then all of a sudden he disappears and we don’t ever talk about it.”
Khloe added: “Viewers will almost feel slighted, like we aren’t sharing things and it’s not as real.
“So yes, we do address it. I always try to be as respectful as possible, but it is reality.
“But it’s not going to be some long, drawn-out situation. I think people are probably a little tired of it.”
HER IMPACT
Despite receiving backlash through the years for editing her photos and having plastic surgery in the past, Khloe insisted she has set a positive example.
While talking about her family’s impact on beauty standards, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum told the outlet: “I would like to think that I’ve had a positive impact.
“I would like to think that I’ve made people feel more inclusive and more seen.”
She also argued that she tries to be inclusive with her clothing brand Good American.
The fashion mogul said: “I’ve really fought — the department stores that carry my brand, they’re not allowed to stop at sizing; they have to carry the full-size range, which is a 00 to a 32.
“And you can’t separate them on the floor; they all have to be put together, so there’s no segregating different sizes or anything like that.”
She continued: “I hope it’s made women feel better about the shopping experience that they don’t have to go to different departments, if you are in a certain side range.
“We were also one of the first brands to have three different size models on our websites. This is really what we believe. It’s the ethos of the brand.”
FAMILY COMPARISONS
Also during her discussion with Variety, Khloe admitted it was “really hurtful” to have people constantly comparing her looks to her sisters’ when she was growing up.
Khloe shared that she and her sisters agree that everyone is more “vicious” toward her than anyone else in the family and they don’t understand the reason.
“When I was younger, always being compared to my sisters in a way where I can’t be related to them because we look different,” the Good American founder recalled.
Khloe went on: “It was always emphasized that they were so much prettier. And that’s just really poor taste.
“Those things were definitely really hurtful, just to always be compared to them, especially in the fashion or beauty world comparing our bodies or faces.”
Khloe said she now tries to always “spread positivity on my platforms.”
