Monday evening, Tristan Thompson posted some statements on his IG Stories. He acknowledged that he fathered a child with Maralee Nichols, the woman he was sleeping with on-and-off from January-April of 2021, while he was still “with” Khloe Kardashian. He also directed a statement to Khloe, apologizing for treating her with such disrespect. Considering all of his lies, all of his infidelities and all of the drama, I would hope that Maralee and Khloe want nothing to do with him. Maralee ended up issuing a statement through her rep, while “sources close to Khloe” updated People.
Maralee Nichols is sharing her thoughts after Tristan Thompson admitted that he fathered her child. In a statement to PEOPLE, a rep for the new mom said, “There was never any doubt that Tristan Thompson was the father of Maralee Nichol’s baby. Tristan made numerous false and defamatory statements and declarations about Maralee over the past few months, and she is taking his contrite statement today in the context of all of those statements.”
Thompson, 30, confirmed the news on his Instagram Story on Monday, writing, “Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols. I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son.”
Nichols gave birth to her son in early December, her rep confirmed to PEOPLE, and is currently suing Thompson for pregnancy-related fees and child support in a pending Los Angeles paternity suit.
Maralee sounds pissed off. I would be too! Tristan did lie to her and about her and he tried to pull some dumbass maneuvers to get out of paying child support.
As for Khloe… well, before Tristan apologized to her publicly, he picked up True at her gymnastics class and he brought his daughter dozens of roses. A source told TMZ that “the flowers were for True, who he hadn’t seen in a few days — The Sacramento Kings are in town to play the L.A. Lakers Tuesday.” The point is that he only gives a sh-t about True and not his sons, I guess. And here’s the People Magazine story about Khloe:
Khloé Kardashian is focusing on herself in 2022. One day after her ex Tristan Thompson confirmed that he fathered a child with Maralee Nichols, the woman suing him for child support and other pregnancy-related fees, a source tells PEOPLE that Kardashian, 37, is moving on from the drama.
“She wants the new year to be different,” the source says. “She wants to focus on her own happiness.”
As for finding love again, the source says the Keeping Up with the Kardashians alum “can’t imagine dating right now.”
“But her family knows that she will meet the right guy when she is ready,” the source continues. “It’s hard for her family when she is upset. They love her so much. Khloé is such a strong person though. She has already moved on after finding out that Tristan was expecting another baby.”
“She has already moved on after finding out that Tristan was expecting another baby.” Khloe and Tristan broke up last June/July. She only “moved on” months later, when she learned that Tristan impregnated one of his multiple side-chicks while they were dating? It pisses me off that we’re supposed to act like Khloe had no idea about any of this – she absolutely knew!! She was always sending threats to Tristan’s side chicks. Ugh.

I remember on the show they went and had embryos made,i wonder if she will still use them.
Will he have a say in her using them? Sofia Vergara’s ex wanted to use the embryos that they had frozen and she took him to court over it to not allow him to do so. Would he be responsible for child support if he doesn’t give permission for their use? Just wondering.
Even though he is a complete dog,out of all his exes he seems to value Khloe the most,im sure he would agree if only to have an even bigger connection to the K Klan.
I have no idea if he would then have to pay any child support if its only her who wants to go ahead.
I’m sure they’ll have the contract details quietly agreed upon and locked down. The Kardashian/Jenners are a lot of things, but they’re not sloppy with law stuff. I imagine they pay a lot of lawyers a LOT of money.
@Noki – he values her the most becuase she is the most valuable, aka $$$.
Has she apologized to Jordyn Woods for intentionally trying to destroying her?
All that abusive energy she expended towards Jordyn Woods and here she is again. Khloe thought she could embarrass and harass that young girl and move on with her life and it was her “baby daddy” all along. She seems like a terrible person and I worry for her daughter.
Jordyn was wrong she should never have touched that roach.I actually feel like she sabotaged her relationship with the K Klan cause she was sick of them,on Kylies short lived reality show,she looked bored and sometimes resentful. HOWEVER Khloe,Kim and their friends reaction was disgusting! Singing and taunting Jordyn online, they thought she was the house help and at their mercy.The black community and The Smiths said ‘Hold my beer’ and dragged them to hell and back!
That whole thing consisted of him pulling her in his lap and trying to kiss her at a later point. I think Jordyn might have been done with the Klan but I don’t think she set out to get caught with Tristan as a way out. She was like 20 or 21 at the time.
Klan’s reaction was beyond disgusting. All those middle-aged thirsty bitches trying to ruin her online. I was so glad when the Smiths put an end to that bullshit.
Jordyn was intoxicated so… no consent!
Jordyn said clearly that she never went after Tristan, but he grabbed her and made her kiss him.
Khloe is a troll, and trolls gonna troll. Endlessly seeking negative attention online because they have nothing fulfilling in their lives.
A Kardashian is “focusing on herself.” What a refreshing change for the new year.
^ this is a great comment. I loved it.
hahahahaha!!!
All I got is how ADORABLE True is. Such a cutie!!!!!
Beautiful child. I don’t really follow (or like) the Kardashians but wow…they make gorgeous babies.
True is very adorable and as a grown woman, I want True’s completely comfy looking outfit.
True is absolutely a really cute kid.
Not sure who that Julianne Hough-looking person is holding her, though.
I don’t even know if True knows who this woman is!!🤭😄
She is completely beautiful just like her father. He’s a hound dog but gorgeous
Will never feel an ounce of sympathy for khloe over how they harassed jordyn when it was and continues to be her community d*ck baby daddy disrespecting her day in and out. what an idiot.
I really hope she sends a positive message of self worth and just co-parents. But she seems pretty dickmatized by him. And I can see her going back for more heartache.
She will ABSOLUTELY get back with him and likely have another baby…US Magazine already ran a story about how “desperate” Tristan is to have her back, and that’s ALWAYS a prelude to an eventual reconciliation. That is ALWAYS the story, after he cheats–that he’s changed, he wants her back, he’s desperate, he’s WORKING SO HARD, blah blah blah. They plant those stories to make Khloe look less stupid when she inevitably takes him back.
I don’t believe they were DONE done until this baby became public and I think she will get back with him at some point, unfortunately.
Is she going to accuse Maralee of breaking up her family like she did Jordyn Woods?
Well Marlee isn’t a Black woman so probably not.😒
Tristian needed to issue additional apologies to Jordan Craig, Jordyn Woods and his children. While he is still ‘dating’ become acquainted with the contraption called a condom.
Scarborough boy with Jamaican parents need to ‘sitdown’ be still long enough to map out a life beyond basketball and pursue peace. There is no honour in being known as ‘community peen’.
For the others there is an old saying in differing dialects translated into English as ‘You lose them the same way you get them.’
He’s from Brampton
@Well Wisher: Your suggestion that Tristan Thompson sit down and write apologies to all his “baby mamas” and various children is quite a burden. I mean, if he had to write to ALL of these various people, he’d never get around to playing sports. Be reasonable, the man does have a day job. (Sarcasm directed solely at TT, not you WW).
“A source told TMZ”, “a source tells People”=Kris
Kris has been very busy. First the Pete, Kim, and Miley triangle, then the “Woe is Khloe” story, and now the “Kayne has a new muse story, but Kim isn’t jealous at all” story. She must be trying to distract from something major that is going on with the Astroworld lawsuits.
It wasn’t just Tristan that was posting on his IG stories, Tristan wrote the first comment and Kris and Khloe wrote the “heartfelt” apology to Khloe(it depicted Khloe as the victim completely ignoring that she had no problem with Tristan’s cheating when he had a pregnant girlfriend , spun that Khloe was more than just one of Tristan’s sidechicks, and falsely claimed that Tristan respects Khloe even though he treats her like a sidechick). The press needs to do better and start calling Kris and her daughters out on their cons.
Khloe hasn’t moved on, the comments that she and her mother posted from Tristan’s accounts(I suspect that it was Kris and Khloe who were writing those comments to Nichols from Tristan’s account because Khloe has a history of contacting Tristan’s other sidechicks and the last time she used her account to contact one of the sidechicks, the other sidechick leaked it) indicates that she is still in contact with him.
I found it VERY odd that Tristan gave dozens of roses to True. What is she, four years old? Really inappropriate. Was he afraid to approach Khloe or was he banned from her house? Let’s add “coward” to “community peen.” He’s in good company with that last epithet because Prince William shares it with him (though William would obviously pout and fume to be associated with a black American basketball player, like William is “so” much better). In my opinion, the only way William is “better” is that he uses a condom (I think?) Of course, if he didn’t he could have many outside children like Tristan, but it would all be hushed up and paid for pre-emptively (as apparently his grandpappy did). So, no, William is in no way better than Tristan. And Tristan is much better-looking (I have eyes).
I agree and noticed that too. Who gives dozens of roses to a tot?
It’s almost like by giving the bouquet of ROSES(!) to his 4-year-old child, he’s using her as a surrogate for the mother, Khloe.
Yah I call BS that they broke up in June/July….he was there for Kourtneys engagement in OCTOBER…that’s not something you invite an ex to (no child related activity). She has been with him the whole time…Tristan didn’t care.
THIS!!! If Khloe or any of her family members knew his side chick was pregnant and suing him, why would he have been at Kourtney’s engagement??? That makes zero sense. They were clearly still together and will be again, she just cannot stop trying to have his community d*ck all to herself.
Staged photo ops!!!! The thing the K Klan does best!!!!!! Everything about this whole family is fake as a three dollar bill!!!!
If she froze embryos with Tristan I guarantee she will either have them implanted or pay a surrogate. Those K woman are all about having multiple kids and that seems to be more important to them than the romantic connection.
There were some brutal comments yesterday on Insta ….”Khloe has had 37 faces and he cheated on every one of them.” I feel kind of sorry for her, she is SUCH a mess with her insecurities and desperation. Of all the men in the world, it’s bizarre that his community peen is so thrilling to her. I also don’t know that they actually made embryos – it seemed that she froze her eggs, but since they slowed down on surrogacy I don’t know that they said embryos already happened.
Khloe needs to apologize to all the black women she f’ed over by being the sidechick of the Boyfriends. Her whole relationship started by putting a pregnant woman in the hospital die to the stress of her frocklicking in mexico with her boyfriend tristan
Khloe kept blaming the women for going after HER man, she has harassed and threatened all of Tristan’s previous and current sexual partners with legal actions and god knows what else..
She THOUGHT she was better, HA!
She has no one to blame but herself, for continuously going back to him and honestly, I do not think she is done w/him yet.
its unfortunate that no one felt sad for his first child’s mother Jordyan, she has always been a class act.
I would bet $10 that Khloe’s surrogate has already been picked out – if not pregnant already.
I think a surrogate for Khloe is a great idea. She wants at least one more Tristan kid without Tristan himself. They have embryos frozen.. She needs to pay the surrogate and Tristan to get money for his permission (and not undergo a lawsuit like Sofia Vergera did). (He’ll get way more money than the surrogate.) This way she can have another kid with the same man (as Kardashians always want to do), not have Tristan involved at all except a hefty payment to him for his agreement. She would have another kid with who is a full sibling to True and she can dump the man himself as a wastrel/loser/cheater. So it’s a win-win-win. True is absolutely stunning in that picture with her mom!
