Khloé Kardashian has shared a startling story about a moment her daughter True Thompson experienced that she believes was a visit from her late grandmother’s spirit — the mother of Khloé’s ex-partner, NBA star Tristan Thompson. The reality TV personality spoke about the encounter on her podcast, describing how True allegedly sensed her grandmother’s presence before the family learned of her death in 2023.
How the Paranormal Moment Unfolded
On an episode of her podcast Khloé in Wonder Land, Khloé recounted a surreal moment involving her eldest child, True, whom she shares with Tristan Thompson. According to the Unilad report and other outlets, Khloé said that True woke up and described a woman being in her room the night before the family was informed that Thompson’s mother had died of a heart attack.
“She said, ‘Oh, this lady came in my room last night and woke me up,’” Khloé recalled on the show, expressing both wonder and a bit of nervousness about what her daughter described.
Khloé also noted that True described the woman — identified by the family as Andrea Thompson — as having a different appearance than she remembered, suggesting that she saw a younger version of her late grandmother.
Who Was Andrea Thompson?
Andrea Thompson — Tristan Thompson’s mother — died in January 2023 of a heart attack, when True was just four years old and her brother Tatum was only about five months old. At the time, Khloé and Tristan publicly acknowledged her death and shared tributes to Andrea, who was described by family and friends as devoted to her children and grandchildren.
Khloé has previously spoken about her connection with Andrea and her involvement with Tristan’s family, including caring for Tristan’s son Amari — Andrea’s grandson — after her passing, which she described as continuing support for the family regardless of her relationship with Tristan.
Khloé’s Reaction and Interpretation
Khloé said she believes her children — particularly True — have unique sensitivities, though she admitted she doesn’t fully understand them herself. She said she “encourages all of it,” even if parts of the story feel a little spooky or unnerving to her as a parent.
She also mentioned that her son Tatum sometimes talks about the late grandmother too, saying they need to say goodnight to “the lady,” interpreted as another sign of a recurring presence.
Broader Reactions
Online audiences and celebrity news commentators have reacted with a mix of fascination and skepticism to Khloé’s account. Some viewers see the story as a touching possibility of a connection between a child and a lost family member, while others regard it as an intriguing but unverifiable experience. Paranormal anecdotes involving loved ones are often relayed in pop culture, but each family’s interpretation varies widely.
The story has also brought some renewed attention to Khloé’s long-running co-parenting dynamic with Thompson and her role supporting his extended family after Andrea’s death — including her caregiving for Tristan’s children and the emotional aftermath of the loss.
