'Falling Back': Did Drake just diss Khloe Kardashian with Tristan Thompson cameo?
Drake left the internet in splits after including Khloe Kardashian's ex Tristan Thompson in a polygamy-themed music video after the NBA star was embroiled in a series of cheating scandals.
Drake, 35, was seen in a music video for his song 'Falling Back' preparing to marry 27 brides as he received a pep talk from his best man Tristan, 31, before heading to the altar. The video -- which was released on Thursday, June 16, when Drake dropped his surprise album 'Honestly, Nevermind' -- came just hours after the basketball player's latest cheating scandal was discussed in the series finale of 'The Kardashians.'

"You ready?" Tristan is seen asking the rapper in the wedding-themed video. "Yeah, I'm ready," he replies as they prepare for the ceremony. "Doesn't feel right, we scrap it, we go home, it's done," Tristan continues. "No, I'm good bro. It's a good time for me, you know, I'm ready to settle down. I'm in love," the singer says.
The video came shortly after Khloe was seen breaking down in tears on 'The Kardashians' upon learning that Tristan had not only cheated on her again but fathered a secret child with another woman. The reality TV star made the discovery after her sister Kim read a Daily Mail story that reported how the athlete admitted to fathering a child in court papers. Khloe slammed her ex for "humiliating" her again in the latest episode of the family's reality show. She said she was done with her former partner, who she had been dating on and off since 2016.
In the 'Falling Back' music video, Drake is asked by a rabbi, "Do you commit yourself to being a good husband according to our values and traditions?" The rapper replies, "I do." The rabbi then asks a woman if she is committed to being a good wife, to which she and all the ladies behind her reply in unison, "I do." Drake then goes on to exchange rings with each of the women as they make their way down the aisle.
Drake's mother Sandi Graham, 62, also makes a cameo in the video, as she is seen holding a wedding invitation that features her son's name alongside a lengthy list of women. "I think he's really taking this one seriously," Graham quips to a guest sitting next to her. Another scene shows the afterparty, featuring the rapper's 2010 hit 'Best I Ever Had,' and the last scene shows a line of luxury cars with 'Just Married' signs on the bumpers driving away from the venue.
Fans couldn't help but marvel at Drake's inclusion of Tristan in a polygamy-themed music video.
