A paternity test has confirmed that Tristan Thompson is the father of Maralee Nichols’ baby.
The NBA player had a one-night stand with the personal trainer from Texas, shortly after he reconciled with Khloé Kardashian.
Nichols hired an attorney alleging that Tristan requested her to get an abortion when she told him she was pregnant.
The court ordered a paternity test on the baby boy who was born on 1 December.
Taking to his Instagram, Tristan Thompson apologised to Khloé for the way he’s treated her over the years.
“Now that paternity has been established, I look forward to amicably raising our son. Khloé, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don’t deserve the way I’ve treated you over the years,” Tristan shared to his Instagram stories.

He continued, “My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry.”
This is Tristan’s third child. He shares a daughter with Khloé and has a son from his previous relationship.
Maralee Nichols is claiming expenses from Tristan she incurred whilst pregnant. This includes medical expenses as well as other pregnancy-related costs.
As reported in the Daily Mail, Nichols’ attorneys claim Tristan offered her $75 000 to drop the paternity claim.
