Khloé Kardashian was spotted in public for the first time since the news broke that Tristan Thompson allegedly cheated with model Jordyn Woods.

Despite being “furious” over the situation, Kardashian, 34, appeared to be putting on a brave face as she stepped out on Tuesday — just a day after she had learned of Thompson’s latest alleged cheating scandal — at Kanye West’s office in Calabasas.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star cracked a smile as she arrived in an all-white ensemble which she accessorized with giant silver hoop earrings and a pair of aviator sunglasses. She also let her blonde locks go loose.

On Tuesday, TMZ and Hollywood Unlocked reported that Kardashian and the Cleveland Cavaliers player, 27, had split after he was unfaithful with her youngest sister Kylie Jenner‘s best friend Woods, who is also a member of the Good American squad, representing and previously modeling for Kardashian’s clothing brand.

A source close to the family told PEOPLE that “Khloé found out yesterday about Tristan and Jordyn” and she was not alone in her outrage over the situation.

“The whole family is furious,” the source added about the KarJenner clan. “They were blindsided.”

Another source told PEOPLE that the family was particularly upset with Woods. They are “beyond angry and disgusted” with her, the source said.

Although Kardashian has yet to release a statement about the alleged incident, the mother of one has not remained silent.

One day after she and her family were informed about Thompson’s alleged unfaithfulness, Kardashian responded to Hollywood Unlocked’s Instagram post — about her reported split from Thompson and cheating with Woods, 21 — by posting eight mouth-talking emojis.

Kardashian’s best friend Malika Haqq also commented on the post, writing in all capital letters, “STRONG FACTS,” and big sister Kim Kardashian West liked the Instagram post.

Within an hour of the reports, the NBA star tweeted a post saying, “FAKE NEWS,” seemingly denying the report. The tweet, though, has since been deleted.

Reps for Kardashian and Thompson did not immediately return PEOPLE

Bouncing back after having a baby isn’t easy, and new mom Bekah Martinez wants people to stop saying moms “are lucky to get their pre-baby bods back.”

“Lucky is getting the opportunity to carry a child within you,” Martinez, 24, captioned an Instagram photo Tuesday, which shows her breastfeeding her newborn daughter Ruthie Ray.

“Lucky is having a healthy baby,” Martinez continued. “Lucky is watching your body change after bringing new life into the world, not squeezing into your old high-waisted jeans a week after giving birth.”

“My face is swollen, I’m wearing a diaper, and my belly hands over my sweats,” Martinez wrote.

“I am truly lucky.”

Meghan Markle is enjoying some quality time with her pals!

After a busy day in New York City, in which several of her closest friends celebrated her pregnancy by throwing her a baby shower, the Duchess of Sussex, 37, stepped out for a fancy dinner at Ralph Lauren’s restaurant The Polo Bar.

Joining the mom-to-be on Tuesday evening were pals Serena Williams, Jessica Mulroney, and Markus Anderson — all of whom have been close friends with her for years. Serena and Jessica were also at Meghan’s shower earlier in the day.

Meghan was glowing as she entered the restaurant, located in the heart of Manhattan, wearing a navy Victoria Beckham coat — the same one she wore on Christmas Day — the “Nearly Skinny Maternity” jeans by Hatch Maternity, and black Tamara Mellon boots.

The royal also carried a black leather Stella McCartney purse and accessorized with a black scarf to stay warm.

Meghan was greeted outside by Markus and the close pals walked into the swanky restaurant together smiling arm-in-arm.

Markus, who reportedly introduced Meghan to Prince Harry,  wore a denim ensemble with a pale pink scarf wrapped around his neck and a navy beanie.

Serena, 37, who arrived on her own, kept it simple for the night out and opted for a black sweater with black jeans. She paired the look with black combat boots and a long black coat with pink plaid lining the sides to give the outfit some flair.

The tennis star, who’s been friends with Meghan since meeting at the Super Bowl in 2010, also had her hair pulled into a ponytail, wore black square-rimmed glasses with tape in the center, and carried a black purse.

Meanwhile, Toronto-based stylist Jessica, who has styled Meghan in the past and whose three children served important roles in Meghan’s bridal party at her royal wedding, showed up to the event solo in a Mackage plaid trench coat

A retired Montgomery County Police officer is giving her former beat partner the ultimate gift — life.

It all started in December, when Stanley Barsch, 41, revealed to his friends on social media that he was in desperate need of a new kidney.

In the post, Barsch, a father of three living in Middletown, Maryland, revealed he left the police force due to polycystic kidney disease — a hereditary condition, that claimed his mother’s life in 2017.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) causes many fluid-filled cysts to grow in the kidneys. The disease can often change the shape of kidneys, making them much larger, which is the case for Barsch.

A normal kidney is about the size of a fist, while Barsch’s kidneys are the size of footballs, weighing at least 15 to 20 pounds each, he tells PEOPLE.

After he put out his plea on social media, Barsch was moved by the responses and his former colleague Megan Ambrose, 36, was the first to get tested.

“I didn’t even think twice about it,” Ambrose told PEOPLE emphatically.

Ambrose went in on Jan. 2 and six days later found out that she was a perfect match.

“They told me they wanted to transplant my left kidney,” Ambrose explained. “I couldn’t believe it. This is the way it’s supposed to be.”

Ambrose and Barsch sparked a bond in 2007 when she entered the police academy and Barsch was a lateral.

The duo began working the same beat together that year.

“There are no words that do our partnership justice,” Ambrose said describing one instance in which the two held a record for pulling over 43 cars in one day.

“You experience things with your partner that you can’t really explain.”

Ambrose later retired in 2012 after being involved in a near-fatal car crash. Barsch retired in 2016 after his kidneys began to fail.

Though they no longer worked together, their friendship never wavered.

“He is family and he needs help and if I’m able to help him I’m going to do it,” Ambrose explained.

After learning of the life-changing news, Ambrose decided to wait and tell Barsch three months before their surgery.

That date fell on Feb. 14 — Valentine’s Day and none other than National Donor Day.

“I seriously had no idea,” Ambrose said, adding that it was t
