According to a source close to Kardashian, speaking to PEOPLE magazine, the relationship between Kim and Tom is purely platonic. They share mutual friends and business interests, mainly as Kim was reportedly scouting for a vacation home near Brady's in the Bahamas.
"Kim is very focused on her kids, her businesses, law school, and preparing for 'American Horror Story', which starts production next month," the source added, painting a picture of a woman deeply engaged in her professional and personal responsibilities, rather than new romantic escapades.
