Khloé Kardashian Explains Why Tristan Thompson’s Face Is Bizarrely Blurred Out In ‘KUWTK’ Episode

The fans want answers.

Khloé Kardashian's failed relationship with her ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson is playing out on the current season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

In the latest episode of the series, the mother of one opened up about where they stand, but fans noticed something strange about the footage that is prompting a lot of questions: each time the NBA star was shown throughout the episode, his face was blurred out.

While it didn’t appear that Thompson filmed for the show specifically, he did appear in Khloe’s home videos that showed him playing with their daughter, True. His face was even blurred out of framed photos shown throughout the episode.

So, what's this about?

When a fan confronted Kardashian about the noticeable editing decision, she made it clear that she had no idea what was going on.

"Wait? It is!?!?? I did not even notice that. I don't know," she replied to a fan inquiring about the blur. "Well, you obviously know who it is LOL so I don't know what the point of that is. I'll find out."

  • When another fan further speculated that the move was done deliberately, Kardashian gave a bit more context, adding that Thompson simply may have not signed a waiver to have his face shown on the show.

    "We obviously didn't do anything," she wrote. "He might not have signed a waiver to show those images. Why would I want to blur his face? I'm not hiding his identity LOL#KUWTK."

  • The episode in question chronicled the aftermath of the NBA star's first cheating scandal which went public two days before Kardashian gave birth to their daughter, True.
