Maralee Nichols has uploaded a rare snap of her child, Theo, one, who she shares with basketball player Tristan Thompson.
In the upload, Maralee can be seen holding onto young Theo while only showing the top of his head, filled with small curls. The 33-year-old wore a pair of bunny-printed pyjamas, matching with her son, and a pair of grey bunny ears as they celebrated Easter.
The pair were said to have been excluded from the Kardashian family festivities over the Easter weekend despite Theo being half siblings with Khloe Kardashian 's children, True, four and her unnamed son.
In December last year TMZ reported that Tristan and Maralee had reached a child support settlement which sees the athlete pay the model $9,500 monthly, but Tristan shared a cryptic quote about "paying for your failures" after the settlement was reached.
The upload of Maralee and Theo comes after Khloe and Tristan were rumoured to be giving things another go after a slew of cheating rumours destroyed their relationship.
In December 2021, Maralee, Tristan's personal trainer at the time, gave birth to Theo and a paternity test confirmed that Tristan was the father.
When the news broke he publicly apologised to Khloe in an Instagram upload, writing: "You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you."
In their Hulu TV show, Khloe confessed that she had been "blindsided" by the whole ordeal.
"It is just an additional slap in my face. It is humiliating. I am embarrassed. I would prefer to be alone than to be around people," she told cameras.
After co-parenting True for some time, in July 2022, it was revealed that Khloe and Tristan were expecting a second child through the help of a surrogate.
A source told US weekly that their child was conceived while Tristan was cheating on Khloe. They said: "He went through finding a surrogate and all that while he was cheating on Khloe and that’s unforgivable to her."
Despite the drama surrounding their relationship, Khloe and Tristan are rumoured to be giving things another shot. A source told OK! magazine : "Khloe says she’s single, but in private, she acts like Tristan is her husband."
