Khloe Kardashian‘s son Tatum makes another adorable appearance in the teaser for next week’s episode of The Kardashians.

Khloe, 39, – who made headlines for showing off her washboard abs last week – welcomed Tatum via a surrogate in July 2022, her second child with ex Tristan Thompson, with Tatum making brief appearances this season.

It seems fans will get the best look at Tatum yet in next week’s ninth and penultimate episode of The Kardashians Season 3, when Tristan, 32, brings Tatum over to Khloe’s home.

He’s seen bringing the cherubic child into the home in a stroller, before expressing his appreciation for the Kardashian family.

‘Thank you so much for me and my family. You know, I don’t know what I’d do without you guys right now,’ Tristan says, as Kris wipes tears from her eyes as the preview comes to an end.

Earlier in the episode, Khloe was having dinner with Kim Kardashian and Scott Disick, when Kim revealed Tristan reached out to her recently.

‘Oh my God, Tristan called me today. He told me that he is buying a house in Hidden Hills,’ Kim says, as Scott asks Khloe if she knew he was looking to live in their Hidden Hills area.

‘I knew he was looking in Hidden Hills before. Like I knew like six or eight months ago,’ Khloe said, as Scott asks if there are, ‘talks of chances, because if you felt like you wanted to open up your heart and forgive, I would support.’

‘No, no chances. No, I’m totally fine with him, like I don’t have any issues with him, I really don’t. I just don’t have the energy for issues,’ Khloe says.

A producer asks Khloe if she has forgiven Tristan, and she says, ‘Yeah I forgive Tristan. It doesn’t mean I’ve forget what he’s done, but I forgive Tristan to me, ‘cause I’ve gotta let that s**t go. I need to for myself, because I can’t move on with my life if I’m holding onto this bulls**t.’

Last month, during the third episode of The Kardashians Season 3, Khloe opened up to mother Kris Jenner about her failure to ‘connect’ with the child born via surrogacy.

‘I feel guilty,’ since she hasn’t been able to ‘connect’ with her son yet, three months after his birth, Khloe told Kris.

Kris asks how Khloe feels – three months later – about the whole surrogacy process and Khloe says, ‘When you compare it between True and him, it’s a very different experience, the connection.’

Guilty: ‘I feel guilty,’ since she hasn’t been able to ‘connect’ with her son yet, three months after his birth, Khloe told Kris

‘With True, it took me a couple of days, to be like, ‘OK, this is my daughter and I was super into it,’ but just days. With him, it’s taking me months. I love him and I love kids, but I definitely still don’t have that complete bond, but so many people say it takes time,’ Khloe says.

Kris adds, ‘I think that for you, you’ve been through a lot. Your emotions are spent on trying to deal with trauma and all the stuff that you’ve been through and I think you have to remember that. I mean, you have to give yourself a little bit of credit.

Khloe agrees but says she feels, ‘guilty’ because it’s not the same, adding she doesn’t treat him differently but she just questions herself sometimes.

Kris adds that she should give herself a break because every time she comes over Khloe is, ‘mother of the year, always feeding someone or entertaining someone or doting on your kids. You’re the most attentive person to all of us.’

Khloe adds in confession that she wishes she wasn’t, ‘so critical of myself because I’m very kind to everyone else, I’m just not kind to myself.’

‘Being a mom is truly one of the most magical experiences ever,’ Khloe adds in confession, as Kris asks to hold the baby, but Khloe warns he might throw up on her.

Kris is holding the child and she starts crying as Kris adds, ‘See your mom jumps up. Who is connected? Who’s connected?’
