Khloe Kardashian has kept her son out of the spotlight following his birth in 2022 – but in honor of his first birthday, she has finally revealed what he looks like.
While fans had a glimpse of Tatum's face in the recent finale of The Kardashians, they only saw him as a baby. But, Khloe – who shares Tatum and daughter True, five, with ex Tristan Thompson – went one step further on Friday and posted several photos of her son from the first year of his life – and he has grown so much!
One photo, which appeared to be taken recently, showed Khloe, 39, holding him in her arms and he has an adorable head of curly hair. Captioning the carousel of photos, the mom-of-two penned: "Happy birthday, my sweet son! I am a firm believer in that God gives you what you need and I needed you. God knew my heart needed you.

She continued: "You light up every single room. There's no denying that Everyone smiles when they look at you! Especially True she is so proud to call you hers. Tatum, You have changed mine and True's lives forever. We both needed you. I knew she would be a fantastic, loving older sister, but I don't think I ever could've imagined the love and bond you guys already have.

Khloé and Tristan welcomed their second child via surrogate on July 28. She spoke about her new baby for the first time in an interview with Elle magazine the following month."

"We have to take those roles seriously, especially in today's day and age, with how much accessibility children have and the information they're exposed to so young," she continued. "It's super scary, but I take my job very seriously. I love it so much."
