Tristan Thompson, Ashton Kutcher & More Celebs Who Got Vasectomies

by

As a lifestyle expert, I’m always fascinated by how people navigate big life decisions, and Khloe Kardashian recently shared a really candid story on her podcast! She and Tristan Thompson decided a vasectomy was the right step for their family, and honestly, it was a pretty straightforward conversation. After Tristan admitted he felt he’d already started enough families, Khloe took the initiative. She playfully confessed she may have issued a little ‘ultimatum’! Tristan himself joked about ‘laying the nuts on the table,’ but he also clarified it was a quick, 15-minute procedure. And to be clear, he’s definitely not planning on reversing it! It’s refreshing to see them openly discuss such a personal topic and make a decision that feels right for them as a family.

Khloe revealed that she and Tristan Thompson saved sperm in case he ever wanted to have children with someone in the future. She also clarified that, although they created frozen embryos together, she legally owns them because he signed the rights over to her.

Even after past infidelity issues, Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian have successfully established a positive co-parenting relationship.

Thompson explained, “We prioritize our friendship and cherish our two children. It’s good for others to see parents who aren’t together romantically still maintaining a healthy and supportive connection.”

Thompson isn’t the only celebrity to discuss getting a vasectomy. For more stories from stars like Kane Brown and Dax Shepard who have openly shared their experiences with the procedure, continue reading.

Dax Shepard is loving being a dad. However, after he and Kristen Bell already had two daughters, Lincoln and Delta, he had a vasectomy very quickly when Kristen thought she might be pregnant again. Dax admitted he “freaked out” at the thought of another child. Kristen wasn’t happy he acted so fast, but Dax said he’s someone who takes action when he feels strongly about something. He shared this story on Jimmy Kimmel Live! back in 2016.

Hilary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma, previously joked about getting a vasectomy, but those concerns are now in the past. After announcing they’re expecting a daughter named Townes in 2024, he shared that he actually went through with the procedure, and found it much better than a trip to the dentist.

Brian Austin Green, known for his role in Beverly Hills, 90210, decided to have a vasectomy shortly after his son Zane was born in 2023 to fiancée Sharna Burgess. He already had five children – Kassius with Vanessa Marcil, and Noah, Bodhi, and Journey with Megan Fox – and felt his family was complete. As he shared on his podcast Oldish in 2024, he decided it was ‘time to close the shop’ after Zane’s birth.

Khloe Kardashian didn’t beat around the bush when discussing her ex, Tristan Thompson’s, vasectomy. On her podcast, Khloe in Wonder Land, she jokingly suggested she might have encouraged the decision.

Tristan, who shares daughter True and son Tatum with Khloe, confirmed the procedure was quick and made it clear he doesn’t want to undo it.

As a father of four, he stated he has no intention of having the vasectomy reversed.

Ashton Kutcher tried a THC mint at a wedding in Italy, and it didn’t go as planned. He told Esquire that after taking it, he became convinced he’d lost feeling in his legs.

Kane Brown is relieved to have gotten a vasectomy. After welcoming his son, Krewe, with his wife Katelyn in 2024 – joining their daughters Kingsley and Kodi – the country singer went through with the procedure. He described the experience on The Bobby Bones Show as surprisingly casual, recalling the medical staff chatting about their day while he lay on the exam table.

Dr. Phil has said that getting a vasectomy was a major regret. He told Newsweek in 2011 that he was only 29 years old when he had the procedure, while his wife, Robin McGraw, was pregnant with their son, Jay McGraw. He later reversed the vasectomy, and the couple eventually had another son, Jordan McGraw.

In March 2024, the retired football player shared a photo online showing him relaxing with a drink and an ice pack. He was wearing a t-shirt that jokingly read, “Vasectomy survivor. I kid you not.” His family includes his wife, Jessie James Decker, and their children: Vivianne, Eric (nicknamed Bubby Jr.), Forrest, and Denver.

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve seen a lot of family planning choices, and Arie Luyendyk Jr.’s story is definitely one for the books! He initially had a vasectomy back in 2022, but then decided he wanted to grow his family and had it reversed in 2024. And things really moved quickly! They welcomed their fourth child, Livvy, in 2025, and honestly, Arie was joking about needing a ‘punch card’ after scheduling another vasectomy by the end of that same year. It just goes to show, life is full of surprises, and families evolve in unexpected ways!

Jon Gosselin decided eight kids was enough. So, he and then-girlfriend Liz Jannetta took some steps.

During a 2014 appearance on The Wendy Williams Show, Jon announced that he and Liz had decided not to have any more children, explaining they had both undergone procedures to prevent future pregnancies.

Rapper Slim Thug had a vasectomy after having three sons. He announced the procedure on Twitter with the hashtags “#NoNewKids,” “#NoNewBabymamas,” “#NoMoChildSupport,” and “#NoLittleGirl,” stating he’s happy with his three boys.

Oh my god, can you believe Nikki Sixx went through all that? It breaks my heart! After his divorce from Donna D’Errico in 2007, he already had four kids and thought he was done with having a family. But then he met Courtney, and everything changed! He actually had a procedure to retrieve sperm so they could try for a baby – can you imagine?! And it worked! They had Ruby in 2019, and she’s just the sweetest. He even joked about it to USA Today, saying getting his… well, let’s just say the procedure… was as crazy as being in Mötley Crüe back in ’87! Seriously, the man is a legend, on and off stage. He’s so open about everything, it’s amazing.
