'STEP BY STEP'
The photo marked Tristan's in nearly a month and he posed standing at the base of a long pillar of stairs.
The NBA baller looked down, as if in a contemplative state, while standing on the bottom steps.
He captioned the photo: "You can't fall if you don't climb."
"No happiness in living your life on the ground. Keep climbing, step by step."
Interestingly enough, it came just hours after Khloe shared a similarly captioned post.
The photo showed the Good American founder standing in hip-deep ocean water with her back turned to the camera.
Khloe donned one of her sister's SKIMS brand metallic silver swimsuits as she slicked her wet hair back out of her face.
With the horizon in the distance, the bright blue sky meeting the sea-green ocean, the TV personality captioned the post seemingly reflecting on past mistakes, "There’s no point in looking back."
'I'M RAISING THE BABY ALONE'
Many fans have been wondering if all this means the couple is back together, one tweeted: "So when this one is born, will she get back together with him??? Poor kids."
However, Khloe has been openly talking to her close friends about the pregnancy since "before Christmas," according to a source - and about staying strong and single.
“Khloe and Tristan already had the baby in the works when the scandal hit," the outlet reported.
"By then, Khloe was just like, ‘I’m going to be doing it by myself.'”
According to the outlet, they "are not back together and have not spoken since December outside of co-parenting matters."
Khloe's sister Kim used a surrogate for her third and fourth kids with her ex Kanye West - they have co-parented despite their ups and downs.
TRISTAN SCANDAL
Tristan had an affair with Maralee when he was supposedly mutually exclusive with Khloe.
Back in December, Tristan welcomed a son named Theo, now five months old, with Maralee, 31.
In January, he admitted in a lengthy Instagram post that he is indeed the father of Maralee's child.
After the NBA player revealed the paternity results, he also issued a public apology to Khloe.
"Khloe, you don't deserve this. You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you," Tristan said.
"You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions have certainly not lined up with the way I view you.
