Khloe Kardashian to LeBron James: Take Tristan Thompson with You to Los Angeles!
As previously reported, LeBron James is headed to the Los Angeles Lakers.
The world’s best basketball player has signed a four-year, $ 154 million contract with the Purple and Gold, leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers for the second time in the process.
Naturally, this decision has raised a number of questions.
To wit:
Will the Lakers be able to also trade for unhappy San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard?
Will DeMarcus Cousins sign a free agent deal with the Lakers?
Does LeBron really want to deal with Lavar Ball?
Can the Lakers actually challenge the Golden State Warriors for the championship during LeBron’s tenure this?
Just how awful with the Cavs be next year?
And, of course, how will this major sports move affect Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian?!?
Thompson, of course, has played his entire professional basketball career as a teammate of LeBron’s.
The two are said to be very close, with James even pressuring the Cavs in 2015 to give Thompson a five-year, $ 82 million deal, despite his one-dimensional nature on the court.
However, Thompson’s romance with Khloe was also said to annoy LeBron, who feared that the Kardashian curse was working its black magic against the team at various points this past season.
Just a few weeks ago, the Cavs were swept in the Finals by the Warriors, shortly after which both LeBron and Tristan took flights to Los Angeles.
The former will be employed there by the Lakers for the foreseeable future, while the latter touched down in order to spend time with Khloe and his daughter, True.
But might Thompson now try to finagle his way to the Lakers as well?
Tristan has been trying very hard of late to prove that he’s a good father and decent person.
He has shared photos of his kids on Instagram, along with a video of him being all cute and cuddly with his daughter.
Sources have said that Khloe is now back in her home state full-time, and she’s made it clear that she’s gonna try and make it work between herself and her unfaithful baby daddy.
In response to a Twitter user last month who said she was disappointed in the example Khloe was setting by staying with Thompson, the reality star clapped back:
“You have no knowledge of what goes on in our household or the enormous rebuilding this takes to even coexist. I’m proud of my strength.”
The thing is, if Thompson remains on the Cavs, it will be nearly impossible for him to truly co-parent with his scorned girlfriend. The guy will be living in Cleveland for like half the year.
This brings us back to LeBron’s decision to join the Lakers in free agency.
He and Khloe have a relationship, or so we’ve heard.
They’ve grown somewhat close over the past couple years as a result of Kardashian attending so many Cavs games.
Insiders have hinted that Khloe has been in LeBron’s ear about asking Lakers management to trade for Thompson.
Los Angeles can’t really fit Thompson under its salary cap and still pursue Leonard or free agents next summer such as Jimmy Butler and Klay Thompson.
He’s not really the type of player who would benefit the Lakers, either, right now.
But we all know the sort of power and influence that Khloe and her family can wield, don’t we?
Would it surprise anyone at all if Kris Jenner hasn’t been the phone all night, speaking to James, his team and higher-ups on the Lakers?
She probably has Magic Johnson as a Favorite on her cell phone.
The Cavs are looking to rebuild and would welcome young assets such as Kyle Kuzma and/or, for certain, Lonzo Ball in exchange for Thompson.
This would give LeBron a trusted veteran to have on his squad while he goes for title number-four, and it would give little True a father at home far more often than if Tristan remained in Cleveland.
It would also makes the Kardashians happy, which would make LeBron’s time in Los Angeles far more enjoyable.
The only person who would NOT like such a trade would be Thompson because it would make it far more difficult to cheat on Khloe when he’s residing in her city.
So that unhappiness should settle it, right?
Make this happen, Lakers and Cavs!
LeBron James Signs $154 Million Contract with Los Angeles Lakers
LeBron James has come a long way since The Decision.
And he’s about to make his living a long way from Cleveland.
Eight years after he dumped the Cavaliers in front of a national television audience, James came up with a far more inoffensive and discreet way to tell the world that he’s joining another basketball team.
On Sunday night, the management company in which LeBron has a stake issued a very simple press release that reads as follows:
LeBron James, four time NBA MVP, three time NBA Finals MVP, fourteen time NBA All Star, and two time Olympic Gold Medalist has agreed to a four year, $ 154 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers.
This move had been expected by most NBA followers for several weeks now, if not several months.
LeBron had the option to opt-out of this contract with the Cavaliers — and most fans expected him to do so following a turbulent season that only ended with another trip to the Finals because James may be the best basketball player in the history of mankind.
It was LeBron’s eighth consecutive trip to the concluding round of the NBA Playoffs.
But the Cavaliers got swept in the Finals by the Golden State Warriors and stood no real chance of competing with them for years to come.
Hence LeBron’s decision to join a team full of young, up-and-coming players, which is also situated in the entertainment capital of the world; whose city has great weather year-round; and which may trade for superstar Kawhi Leonard any day now.
LeBron owns two homes in Los Angeles and sources had claimed he and his family had been touring potential schools there for his 13-year old son.
Shortly after Klutch Sports Group made the above announcement, James made one of his own on Instagram:
James finished second this year in the MVP race.
In 2016, he fulfilled his promise to bring Cleveland its first major pro sports championship in 52 years, leading his Cavs to an epic seven-game victory over those same Warriors in the Finals.
Some Cleveland fans will likely be hard on James for his decision to leave the Cavaliers for the second time in his career, but come on now.
He accomplished something historic as the face of the franchise just two years ago and Cleveland isn’t exactly the best run organization on the planet.
Also, the Cavs employ JR Smith.
Plus, now it will be easier for LeBron to keep hooking up with Beyonce!
LeBron leaves the franchise as its leader in nearly every major statistical category: games played, points, rebounds, assists and steals.
He played in all 82 games this past season and may have put on the best playoff individual performance in league history.
This will either make it easier for Cleveland fans to accept that he’s gone, having given everything one could during his final run there…
… or much harder because the guy is amazing.
Oh well.
Go Celtics!

Khloe Kardashian: Back in Los Angeles... with Tristan Thompson?
Khloe Kardashian has taken a break from having sizzling hot, Kamasutra-inspired sex to take a rather big step in her life:
The reality star has moved back home.
For good, we believe.
But for good with Tristan Thompson in tow? That’s the real question.
Khloe’s loved ones made certain over the weekend that the mother of little baby True felt welcome in Los Angeles, showering her with gifts and decorations amidst her much-anticipated return.
Kardashian, of course, had been residing in Cleveland for the past few months.
She moved there prior to giving birth on April 12 in order to spend time with Thompson and get settled, right before the couple was scheduled to become parents together.
And then Khloe’s life changed for the much worse, as news broke that Thompson had been cheating on her left, right and in every direction possible during her pregnancy.
Still, Khloe stuck around Cleveland for about two months after welcoming True, partly because she was trying to work things out with Thompson and partly because she wanted to make sure it would be safe to fly.
Upon her return to the Sunshine State, Khloe was greeted with the following set of balloons.
As you can see, they say “Welcome Home Khloe and True” and they appear to be a gift from sister Kylie Jenner and niece Stormi Webster.
Khloe also shared cookies that were made for the occasion, with her daughter’s name and likeness plastered on top.
Good luck ever topping these presents, anyone welcoming anyone else home at any point in the future.
Thompson was not included in any of these messages.
Us Weekly does write that he was with Khloe at the time of her move, however.
We cannot say for certain whether the troubled twosome will actually be residing together in Los Angeles, but it seems very unlikely.
On Sunday, though, Kardashian shared a new image of precious child True, including with it a very simply three-word caption.
“Happy Father’s Day,” it reads.
But is this intended for Thompson? Or is it just a general wish for all men with kids out there to enjoy their special dau?
We would lean strongly toward the latter.
Heck, there have been indications of late that Thompson is STILL banging Lani Blair, one of the Instagram models with whom he slept while Khloe was pregnant with his kid.
We can’t confirm this report.
But we can say that we wouldn’t be shocked if it were accurate, which sort of says it all, doesn’t it?
Last month, an insider told Us Weekly that Khloe and Tristan are always at odds and that their future looks bleak, explaining to the tabloid:
“Tristan is completely emotionally and physically exhausted from the cheating allegations.
“She doesn’t know how she’s going to rebuild trust in him. She knows her family and friends aren’t supporting him or her right now.”
We don’t ask you for much, Khloe, but can you please kick Tristan to the curb once and for all?

Khloe Kardashian: Ordered Back to Los Angeles by Her Family!
Khloe Kardashian did her best to enjoy Memorial Day Weekend just a few days ago.
She really did.
The reality star shared multiple precious photos of herself and her daughter on Snapchat, for example, one of which featured Khloe in the obligatory red, white and blue.
In another Tweet, meanwhile, Kardashian posted an old picture of her firstborn, including with it a caption that marveled over both motherhood and how quickly times goes by.
“I sometimes, still can’t believe im a mommy!!! I’m so so thankful for such a blessing!! True is the sweetest ever! I got my bestie for life!” wrote a very excited and very happy Khloe.
She added: “Thank you Jesus for my angel.”
And then, in regard to the picture below, Kardashian wrote:
My baby bunny. She was only 2 weeks in this pic. Why is the time flying!! She will be 7 weeks tomorrow.
So… everything seems very good with Khloe, doesn’t it?
She’s clearly loving this whole parenting thing, right?
But there’s still the whole issue of Tristan Thompson and how he cheated on her many times and whether or not she’s finally ready to dump his sorry ass.
Despite some strong hints that she’s prepared to walk away, Khloe has not yet come right out and said she’s moving away from Cleveland and putting that romance in her rearview mirror.
Much to the chagrin of her famous family members.
“Everyone is understanding of her situation and they are all trying to be there for her, but obviously want her home,” a source told E! News this week, adding:
“They are letting her have her space in Cleveland and keep her routine, but wish they could have more moments together as a family unit and have True around more.”
Khloe moved to Ohio a few weeks prior to giving birth.
The move was always meant to be temporary, even before news of Thompson’s cheating scandal broke.
She’s now been there for about three months and no one knows when or if she’ll go back to California full-time.
“Everyone hopes she will come back to Los Angeles once True is a little older,” this E! News insider concludes.
Still, it’s unclear if Kardashian agrees… although it’s very clear she’s sick of strangers telling her what to do.
“People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being,” Khloe recently said, continuing to go off as follows:
“People these days are focused so much on someone else’s life instead of their own.
“They love to give advice but are not living the advice that they are offering. Most of the ones giving advice are in no place to give anything at all. Focus on your own world.
“I’m sure there’s cracks there that need your attention. We all got em.”
In conclusion?
“Misery loves company,” Khloe wrote of various social media users.
“People can’t stand for someone else to flourish and be happy. Nowadays people thrive off ones downfall rather than their success. Sadly.”

Briana Renee: I"m No Longer a Little Woman of Los Angeles!
Briana Renee is done with reality TV.
At least for now.
According to Radar Online, the Little Women: LA cast member will not return for season seven of this Lifetime series, turning down a contract offer that had reportedly been placed on her table.
In an unusual turn of events – for someone who has aired her dirty laundry in front of a camera for years – insiders say Renee is leaving the series because she yearns for a bit of privacy.
Specifically, she doesn’t want her ongoing divorce drama to play out for an audience.
And what a drama it is!
Back in November, Renee and Matt Grundhoffer announced they had split, not long after the latter admitted to having cheated on his wife.
At the time, this split seemed amicable.
Just consider Brianna’s quote at the time:
“We rode til the wheels fell off, and now we can redirect our course as friends focusing on being the best parents.”
The former couple is parents to an 18-month old son, while each also has children from previous relationships.
Fast forward to early January, however, and the concept of amicable was thrown out the window.
Like, WAY out the window.
In her divorce documents, Renee asks Grundhoffer for child and spousal support, which is reasonable and normal.
But TMZ also confirmed at the time that Renee filed for a restraining order in December because she alleges her husband verbally abused her at least twice in November, referring to her a “cunt” and a “worthless bitch.”
Yikes.
These same documents state that Grundhoffer threatened to take the couple’s son, Maverick, away from his mother.
Wait, however, there’s more…
Briana accuses Matt of often being drunk, mean and violent.
She relays a story in her filing from April of 2017, during which Grundhoffer supposedly threatened to “kill everyone in the house” and also talked openly about killing himself.
And Renee also says she found extremely disturbing exchanges between Grundhoffer and another woman, presumably his mistress.
These exchanges were “sexually explicit and disturbing,” Briana writes, and allegedly “involved bestiality and proposals of sex acts with minor children, including the proposal of sex acts with Matthew’s minor child, age 12, from a previous relationship.”
None of that is even worth joking about.
Shortly after Renee confirmed she was breaking up with Grundhoffer, a transgender model came out and referred to the twosome’s relationship as the “most dysfunctional ever.”
So it definitely seems like it’s for the best they are going their separate ways.
As for the future of Little Women: LA?
Radar reports that producers are not looking to replace Renee and that been in production on season seven has actually been going on for months without her.
Let’s hope, for the sake of her children, that everything works out as well as can be between Renee and Grundhoffer.
