Khloé Kardashian sought DNA tests after noticing her IVF baby had ‘freaking weird’ resemblance to her brother Rob

Khloé Kardashian has been slammed after she sought DNA tests to confirm that her baby son Tatum was not her brother’s.

Born via surrogacy in July 2022, Khloé and her former partner Tristan Thompson initially introduced their son during the premiere episode of the third season of their reality series, The Kardashians.

But Khloé has made a joke that her brother Rob Kardashian could be the father of her son Tatum, and fans aren’t happy.

The reality star revealed her concerns about a possible mix-up at the surrogacy agency when Tatum didn’t resemble her or Thompson.

In an episode of the SHE MD podcast featuring Dr. Thais Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney, Khloe shared the extreme measures she took to confirm Tatum’s paternity.

“I made Tristan do three DNA tests for Tatum. He was so offended,” she confessed. “My son looks just like my brother. Because he was an IVF baby or a surrogate baby, I was like, ‘Rob, have you ever donated sperm somewhere?'”

Despite the serious topic, Khloé joked: “In this family, that would not surprise me, but that would be so disgusting.”

She recounted her persistence even after her doctor assured her of the results: “I need to do another one, I need to figure it out.”

Khloé admitted that Tatum bears a “freaking weird” resemblance to her younger brother, a fact noted by several family members, including her mother Kris Jenner.

Fans were quick to express shock and disbelief on social media following Khloe’s revelation. One person exclaimed: “I beg your finest pardon?” while another questioned the reality of the situation: “Is this not insane??? No way this is real.”

Khloe’s surrogacy journey was fraught with challenges, particularly when she discovered Tristan had fathered a child with model Maralee Nichols shortly after their embryo transfer in 2021.

Despite his infidelities, Khloe maintains that Tristan is a “nice guy” but clarified they would never reconcile.

“I’m not sure that there is one thing that hurts more than the other. Everything is an act of betrayal, everything is a lie, everything is manipulation. It’s deceit,” she revealed on an episode of the show.

Nichols, who gave birth to Thompson’s son Theo, claimed she believed he was single and co-parenting when she initially met him at a party, according to the Mirror.

During a conversation with her sister Kim and Kourtney’s ex-partner Scott Disick, Khloé confessed to feeling “less connected” to Tatum compared to the natural birth of her daughter, True, in 2018.

Reflecting on the surrogacy journey, she expressed guilt over the experience, stating: “I felt really guilty that this woman just had my baby, and I take the baby, and then I go to another room, and you’re sort of separated. It’s such a transactional experience.”
