Khloe Kardashian Leaves Flirty Comment for High School Teacher
Khloé Kardashian will always stand up for her family.
The Khloud Foods founder responded to online criticism after enrolling ex Tristan Thompson’s brother Amari Thompson—who suffers from a severe form of epilepsy called Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS)—in dance classes.
“Last time I posted Amari in his dance class, I heard some ridiculous commentary about, ‘How is this dance? Does he even know what’s going on,’” Khloé said in a video posted to Instagram Stories Dec. 13. “All of this gross commentary that I don’t need, no one needs.”
The Kardashians star continued, “So, if you don’t know or you have never had someone with special needs in your life and you don’t know what their interests are or what makes them happy, don’t comment. And if you don’t like this type of content, you don’t have to watch it. We’re all good over here.”
The 41-year-old went on to post sweet videos from Amari’s classes at Carousel Dance Studio in Los Angeles, California, one of which featuring the 19-year-old joining in on a High School Musical dance number with the assistance of staff.
In a later snap of Amari posing alongside Khloe and his dance instructors, the Khloé in Wonder Land host praised the studio’s mission, writing, “I’m so thankful for places like this and for human beings like this!”
Recently, Khloé—who shares kids True, 7, and Tatum, 3, with Tristan—opened up about why she chose to be Amari’s caretaker after the death of the brothers’ mom Andrea Thompson.
“Tristan’s mom and I became such good friends,” Khloe explained in the July 30 episode of her Khloe in Wonder Land podcast. “I had such a good relationship with Andrea, and I would help her with Amari medically. She would have questions, she would need connections to certain doctors and I would help with that.”

Prior to her death, Andrea was Amari’s sole caretaker. But after the sudden heart attack that took her life in 2023, Tristan—who plays for the Clevland Cavaliers—was granted temporary custody of his younger brother. However, the athlete’s nomadic lifestyle in the NBA enabled Khloé to step in to give Amari more stability.
“It’s just not conducive for Amari to be on that many planes,” she explained, adding that he “has a handful of seizures a day.”
She continued, “So, Amari stays in LA with me, and I have chosen to take care of him. I have two sensational caretakers for Amari, who I love love love.”
The Good American founder clarified that despite her and Tristan’s complicated relationship, she’ll always be there for Amari.
“I still have this family that I’ve spent so many years with,” she continued, “that I have such connections with, that my relationship with Andrea has nothing to do with Tristan. My commitment to her has nothing to do with Tristan.”
