Tristan Thompson – who has three-year-old True with Khloe Kardashian – was reported to have kissed “multiple women” in April 2018, shortly before the reality star gave birth. It has also been recently revealed to have fathered a child with Maralee Nichols.
The Good American co-founder has no regrets about allowing Thompson into the delivery room because their daughter will be able to look back at videos from her birth as “pure and perfect”.
Appearing on primetime ‘The Kardashians – An ABC News Special’, she told ‘Good Morning America’ host Robin Roberts: “I remember when he cheated on me right before I gave birth, and I was able to still have him in the delivery room. And so yes, it might have looked strange to the outside world, but when my daughter watches my home videos of it, those videos are going to be as pure and perfect as I was able to make them.”
Kardashian has hailed Thompson as “a great dad” but insists they are not meant to be together. “I still think he’s a great guy and he’s a great dad, he’s just not the guy for me,” she added.
Khloe and Tristan have had an on/off relationship since 2016. ‘The Kardashians’ star was looking to move in with Tristan before it was revealed that he’d fathered a child with Maralee.
“Khloe and Tristan were in a good place before the news about Maralee being pregnant came out and had plans to move in together,” an insider claimed. “Tristan has since pulled out of escrow on his house in Encino, California, that he was in the process of selling, and is no longer moving in with Khloe.”
Thompson previously apologized to Kardashian, after a paternity test revealed he fathered a child with Maralee. He admitted the reality star doesn’t deserve the “heartache and humiliation” he has caused her.
“Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols. I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son. I sincerely apologize to everyone I’ve hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both publicly and privately,” he wrote on Instagram.
“Khloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years. (sic)”
Thompson also insisted he has the “utmost respect and love” for Khloe.
“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,” the sports star said.
