Tristan Thompson is said to be expecting his fourth child this month after facing a legal case from Marley Nichols.
The NBA player already has three children with two different women.
Who is the mother of Tristan’s child?
Tristan Thompson, 31, has reportedly fathered a child with Maralie Nichols, according to a new paternity lawsuit.
Maralie Nichols allegedly gave birth in December 2021, after allegations that she conceived their child on the NBA player’s 30th birthday in March.
The couple revealed the name of their son Theo Thompson in February 2021.
Thompson shares daughter True with ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian, and son Prince with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig.
TMZ It was reported on July 13, 2022, that Thompson and Kardashian are having their second child together via a surrogate.
A representative for Kardashian confirmed the news via Twitter, writing, “We can confirm True will have a sibling conceived in November.
“Chloe is so grateful for an extraordinary alternative to such a beautiful blessing.
“We would like to ask for your kindness and privacy so that Chloe can focus on her family.”
What is the history between Tristan Thompson and Maralie Nichols?
Maralie Nichols claims that she and Tristan Thompson started seeing each other while he was still in a relationship with Khloe Kardashian.
Marali’s accusations were revealed through a child support filing on December 1, 2021.
In the same court document obtained by the Daily Mail, Tristan and Marley have different accounts of the details surrounding their history.
Tristan claims to have had an intimate relationship with Marali on only one occasion in March 2021, his 30th birthday in Houston, Texas.
Marali responded to his statement by revealing that they began their relationship five months before his birthday party in Houston in March.
What did Marali say about her relationship with Tristan?
Marley broke her silence on the issue of Tristan’s paternity, which was denied in Texas.
On Thursday, December 16, a judge dismissed Tristan’s paternity suit against Marley in Houston court.
In another Los Angeles lawsuit, Marley claimed Tristan is the father of her newborn son, whom she just gave birth this month.
“Over the past two weeks, many inaccurate and false stories have been circulating about me,” Marali said.
“I have not at any time released – nor have I asked anyone else to disclose – any information relating to Tristan Thompson or any lawsuit relating to him.”
“I have never spoken to any media, nor have I ever leaked any information to anyone. I am making this statement because I feel I have to stand up for my character.”
Marali said she was forced to make the statement after some bad publicity she received.
“I’ve seen fake stories, unflattering pictures of me, people using pictures that aren’t even me, advertising an incorrect career and age,” Marali said.
“There have been many fake Instagram posts claiming it was me, making false statements and attaching stock ultrasound photos and a baby (not mine).”
Instead, Maralee wanted to set the record: “Here are the facts: I’ve lived in California since 2019. I’m not a personal trainer.”
She concluded, “I haven’t worked as a personal trainer for four years; I do fitness modeling. I’ve never been a personal trainer for Tristan.
How did Marali and Tristan meet?
Marali met Tristan at a party at his home in Encino, California in 2020.
She said, “I saw Tristan in March 2021 near his birthday. He told me he wanted to see me.”
“I agreed to meet him in Houston at a private party on March 12. I didn’t drive a Maserati to meet Tristan, he claimed. He wasn’t even in my car.”
“I used Uber or had friends drive me on the weekend. Houston was one of our many nights together. Shortly after his birthday weekend in Houston, Tristan invited me to visit him in Boston.”
Marali said she learned she was pregnant a few weeks after her trip to Boston to see Tristan, adding that she told Tristan about her pregnancy in North Carolina after he asked her to see him in April.
In court documents, Tristan claims something different.
“The only time I had sex [Maralee] In 2021 it was in March 2021 in Houston, Texas.”
“I specifically remember having sex with [her] In March because it was my birthday. [She] And they attended a party together at a hotel in Houston. [She] He called me and wanted to be with me on my birthday.”
What did Tristan Thompson and Maralie Nichols say about each other?
Court documents filed on December 1 contain two separate stories from Tristan and Marali.
Tristan’s account states that the alleged time the expecting parents were together, spells the end of the Sacramento Kings player’s relationship with ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian.
In the paternity case, Marali and her lawyers gave their side of the story.
This Texas-born claims to have “traveled to California on multiple occasions” and went on to see a father of two “after she got pregnant.”
Marali is suing Tristan for a number of things.
The pregnant trainer asked for child support as well as “reimbursement for medical expenses and pregnancy-related costs such as Lamaze and Doula lessons and prenatal vitamins.”
On December 7, 2021, it was reported that Tristan had filed a gag order against Marali.
According to court documents I have seen TMZTristan filed an emergency petition in Harris County, Texas, asking a judge to issue a gag order in the case, which would prevent him and Marley from speaking publicly about their case.
What did Tristan Thompson say on Instagram?
Tristan took to Instagram on Monday, January 3, 2022, to make a statement.
“Today the results of my paternity test reveal that I have given birth to a child with Maralie Nichols,” he wrote.
“I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established, I look forward to raising our son amicably.”
“I sincerely apologize to everyone who has been hurt or disappointed during this ordeal publicly and privately,” the NBA player continued.
Then he addressed Chloe in his statement.
“Chloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I caused yo
“You don’t deserve what I’ve been getting over the years. My actions definitely didn’t line up with the way I see you.
He concluded, “I have the utmost respect and love for you. No matter what you might think. Once again, I am so sorry.”
