After 20 seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians it turns out we've been pronouncing Khloé Kardashian's name wrong and we are well and truly shook.

Yep, turns out that little accent over the E in Khloé actually has a phonetic purpose, and presenter Andy Cohen (of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen) has confirmed it with Kris Jenner.

Revealing the discovery on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Andy told the talk show host that, the last time he saw the famous Armenian-American crew, he pronounced Khloé's name the way he thought it should be pronounced: Klo-ay.

He said, "I walked in and I go, 'Khloé,' and the other women go, 'Excuse me?' but, much to the Kardashian sisters' surprise, according to Andy, mum Kris then replied, 'Yeah, that's actually really how it's pronounced'."

No word of a lie, we are flabbergasted. Why did we not know this? And, for that matter, why doesn't Kris Jenner pronounce her own daughter's name correctly? 😂

Andy continued, "There's a little thing on top of the name. Why am I the only one that got that one? I got the memo."

Guess we need to brush up on our GCSE French...

Recently, it came to light that Khloé is planning for a second baby with Tristan Thompson after the KUWTK season 20 trailer revealed that the 36 year old has begun plans to "make embyros with [her] frozen eggs."

Opening up about the decision, the third Kardashian sister told partner Tristan, "In my head when I was going to have kids, I never ever imagined having an only child.

"And especially being in quarantine with her, I felt bad, like she had no friends. She had nobody."

Khloe added that mum-of-four Kim Kardashian had encouraged her to have another baby so that her daughter, True, could have a sibling to play with.

Tristan already has another child with ex Jordan Craig but, in the clip, told Khloe that he's always wanted four kids.

Taking inspo from Kim, eh?
