Prior to giving birth to son Theo in December of that year, Maralee sued Tristan for support.
She has since claimed that he has not paid up, nor has he attempted to be in his son's life.
A new filing contained an even more shocking revelation.
WEDDING BELLS?
Maralee, 31, filed new documents including Snapchat exchanges between herself and Tristan discussing his relationship to Khloe and the child he fathered.
She submitted documents on March 4, according to , which contained Snapchat messages allegedly sent by Tristan in 2021.
While he has argued that the messages are fake, Maralee's lawyers say they are proof of his "unwillingness" and "refusal" to support his son.
In one message allegedly sent in April 2021, Maralee wrote: "You literally just told me you are engaged and are trying to be with your family... I didn't even know you were engaged. You have a record of treating me like absolutely crap and this whole situation has been upsetting."
He also wrote at the time: "Just a heads up me and my fiancé [sic] gonna announce publicly about our marriage.
"Just a heads up. We probably moving out the country in September and live either in Europe or Caribbean. Better living for us and our family away from the bs of America."
In January 2022, Tristan confirmed he was the child's father and issued a public apology to Khloe.
Her rep issued a statement in February saying: "He has not made any attempt to meet their son nor has he provided any financial assistance."
SUPPORT SCANDAL
As part of the same new legal filing, Maralee claimed that the athlete has an "income of $9.7million alone."
The trainer has requested a "guideline monthly child support of $47,424.”
She has asked the court to order Tristan to pay her legal fees, which have exceeded $1million.
Maralee claimed that the baby "and I are living at a far depressed standard of living than Tristan.”
Tristan's former mistress claimed her "expenses will resume once Theo gets older and Covid-19 restrictions are lifted.
“I have made a tremendous effort to reduce my spending. Previously, my average month’s expenses for clothing were in excess of $5,000 a month.”
Maralee accused her former lover of living a “lavish celebrity lifestyle” while she has reportedly been staying at an apartment with a roommate.
Tristan and Khloe, meanwhile, share 3-year-old daughter True.
He is also the father of 5-year-old son Prince with ex Jordan, whom he currently pays child support.

She told the magazine: "It will be addressed on the show. We try as a family to protect the privacy of our partners or significant others since they didn't really sign up for this; we did.
"But if something is really public like this was, it would be strange if Tristan was a part of the show and then all of a sudden he disappears and we don't ever talk about it."
