Inside Tristan Thompson’s baby mama drama after he confessed to ‘hurting’ Khloe Kardashian AGAIN & fathering third baby

TRISTAN Thompson has found himself in hot water once more after a DNA test revealed he had fathered a third child with Maralee Nichols.

The NBA player and the fitness model had spent several nights together while he was dating Khloe Kardashian, the mother of his second child.

Sadly, this is not the first time Tristan has had some baby mama drama, so let's take a look back at the entanglement:

JORDAN CRAIG

Before rising to fame for dating Khloe, Tristan was in a serious relationship with Jordan, an influencer and lifestyle blogger.

The two had been dating since 2014 and two years later, she revealed they were expecting their first child together.

In December 2016, Jordan gave birth to their son Prince, but sadly, she did it alone.

Three months before she gave birth, Tristan and Jordan broke up and he began dating Khloe.

Lots of people have pointed out the overlap of Tristan's relationships with Jordan and Khloe, but no one has ever commented on it.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN

In September 2016, while Tristan was expecting his first child with Jordan, he and Khloe were spotted together.

Their relationship seemed to be going in the right direction and Khloe looked truly happy.

A little more than a year after Tristan and Jordan welcomed Prince together, Khloe also revealed she was expecting her first child with the basketball player.

It seemed like a fairytale ending.

Sadly, things soured when just weeks before Khloe was set to give birth, a video of Tristan kissing two women went viral.

The moment was addressed during Keeping Up With The Kardashians and it seemed like the entire family was up in arms.

After giving birth, Khloe and Tristan went their separate ways.

But it wouldn't be long before the blonde beauty gave her baby daddy a second chance.

And yet again, Tristan messed up again when it was revealed he had made a move on Jordyn Woods, Kylie Jenner's best friend at the time.

On the show, the sisters dealt with the issue and there was even a moment when Khloe yelled at Tristan that he was a liar.

But at the same time that Jordyn was ousted by the family, Tristan was welcomed back as he and Khloe quarantined together and he tried to win her back.

Something he managed to do with rumors of an engagement swirling.

He managed to mess up his third chance with Khloe again when two women claimed they had slept with Tristan.

Kimberly Alexander claimed Tristan was the father of her son, but to this day, he denies it.

After that, model Sydney Chase revealed in a podcast that she had a one-night stand with Tristan.

Allegedly, Sydney and Khloe had a conversation and the Kardashian dumped the basketball player once more.

This all happened after Khloe and Tristan had made plans to have a second child together.

MARALEE NICHOLS

As Khloe hoped to have a nice holiday with Tristan, despite them being separated, she was forced to face another betrayal.

Maralee Nichols, a fitness model, sued Tristan and claimed he was the father of her unborn child.

On December 1, 2021, Maralee gave birth to a baby boy, whom she shared a picture of with  on December 6th.

The caption read: "Instead of focusing on any negativity, I am choosing to embrace being a mother and doing the best I can for my son," Maralee said in her statement. "I do not want any further media attention, nor do I want a romantic relationship with Tristan."

She is choosing to focus on motherhood and raising her child in a "safe, healthy, loving and private environment."

Tristan and Maralee met near the end of 2020, according to the basketball player's memory. He said in a court document filed earlier this month that, at the time he, "did not foresee that she and I could have any type of relationship." 

He previously denied having sex with Maralee in California and claimed the only possible date of conception would be his birthday, March 13, 2021.

Allegedly, the baby was conceived in a Houston hotel during Tristan's 30th birthday celebrations.

Maralee, however, said in her statement on Friday that the child was conceived in April.

Tristan now admits that his relationship with Maralee was "based on sex only." He explained that they would see each other, from time to time, between December 2020 and March 13, 2021, for consensual sex.

Maralee, on the other hand, disputed Tristan's claims, stating that "Tristan told me he was not having a sexual relationship with anyone else; it was not casual sex nor did we have any arrangement. Tristan and I communicated daily and talked on the phone. We would see each other several times a month."

On January 3, Tristan publicly admitted that he was the father of Maralee's son and claimed he was looking forward to raising him amicably.

He also apologized to Khloe for all the pain he had caused her.

This would be Tristan's third child.
