‘What an amazing mother!’ Caitlyn Jenner congratulates Khloe Kardashian after birth of second child
Caitlyn Jenner congratulated Khloe Kardashian and called her "strong" after the reality star welcomed her second child with her ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson. It appears that Caitlyn and the Kardashians have patched things up after a significant period of poor communication and days when they weren't embracing her metamorphosis.
The retired athlete, 72, tweeted on August 5, Friday, in support of her stepdaughter's son who was born via surrogate, writing, "Congratulations major @khloekardashian! I love you so much! You are such a strong woman. And what an amazing mother!"

Caitlyn had experienced some difficulty since deciding to undergo gender reassignment surgery. She had emphasized her sorrow in an interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan in 2017, reaffirming that she "doesn't talk to any of [the Kardashians] anymore. I don't talk about that side of the family, I spent 23 years of my life with those kids – it's difficult to talk about it, terribly terribly sad. I've lost all relationships with them, yes, I don't talk to any of them anymore."
Caitlyn had claimed to still be close to her biological children Kendall and Kylie Jenner, claiming that "my children are my life," and that her relationship with Khloe may have been the most strained of all of her stepchildren since she claims to have not spoken to her in two years.
Khloe had shared her feelings regarding Caitlyn's choice to undergo gender reassignment. "It was very hard for me to experience a lot of new things so quickly and still feeling like I have to protect my mum and certain things that were happening where I felt like they might not have been the most positive," on a 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' episode, she said. But it seems like they have put their turmoil in the past. In April 2021, Khloe reassured that she and Caitlyn had "no beef," and she cited their hectic schedules as the reason they only communicated "every blue moon."
The arrival of her son has captivated Khloe's whole attention, and she is now devoted entirely to her family. The reality star's representative told Page Six in July that Khloe was "incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing. We'd like to ask for kindness and privacy so that Khloe can focus on her family."
Khloe hasn't yet posted the name or picture of her newborn on social media. The only other child that Thompson and the Hulu personality have together is True, although he is also the father of Prince, 5, and Theo, 8 months, who were born to Jordan Craig and Maralee Nichols, respectively.
Last year, the NBA star originally denied being Theo's father but subsequently acknowledged it on Instagram Stories. "I take full responsibility for my actions," Thompson informed his followers in January. "I sincerely apologize to everyone I've hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both privately and publicly."
