Bad News For Tristan Thompson In Paternity Battle
Transcript
00:01Tristan Thompson may be an NBA player, but his personal life sparks just as many, if
00:05not more, headlines.
00:07That's partly due to the fact that he's involved with one of the most famous reality television
00:11stars around, Khloé Kardashian.
00:14The two have been in an on-again, off-again relationship for years while also sharing
00:18daughter True.
00:19"'Come here, baby!'
00:21"'Tutu, come here!'
00:24Beyond that, Thompson has a son, Prince, with his ex, Jordan Craig.
00:28While the pro athlete has dealt with some iffy issues regarding his romantic relationships,
00:32he seems to be a devoted dad.
00:34Thompson said in court documents, according to The Blast,
00:36"'I'm the father of two young children.
00:38I love my children and take my responsibilities as a father extremely seriously.
00:43I am involved in my children's lives and proud to have close relationships with my children
00:47and to provide for their needs financially and otherwise.'"
00:50However, another woman, Kimberly Alexander, claims that Thompson is also the father of
00:54her son, and the legal situation between the two has taken a turn that the star is surely
00:59not happy about.
01:01Thompson clearly wants the world to know that he's trying to be a good dad.
01:04He addressed the claim that he may have a third child and even took a DNA test, which
01:08came back negative.
01:09In documents that were filed by Thompson's legal team, the pro athlete stated,
01:13"'For Alexander to falsely state that I'm the type of man who would neglect his parental
01:17duties hurts me emotionally.'"
01:19The basketball star went on to explain that if the results would have come back positive,
01:23he would have taken care of the boy, quote, without hesitation.
01:25Thompson also claimed that by deeming him a deadbeat dad, Alexander has potentially harmed
01:30his reputation, and in turn, his career.
01:33He noted that the majority of his contracts, such as his deal with the NBA, include clauses
01:37that allow those he works with to terminate their agreements if he engages, quote, in certain
01:42behavior or conduct that may cast the team or the brand in a negative light publicly.
01:47Because of that, he claims that he may have lost out on further opportunities because
01:51businesses may not think he's a suitable representative.
01:54That's why he's going after Alexander for a whopping $100,000.
01:58But things haven't turned out the way that Thompson was likely hoping.
02:01According to TMZ, quote,
02:02"'Tristan's default judgment request has been denied due to some issues that need to be corrected.'"
02:07While we don't know what exactly those issues are, the delay has currently put a stop to
02:11Thompson's lawsuit.
02:12Although that may not stop the star from continuing to pursue the matter in court, for now, Alexander
02:17celebrated the development by taking to social media to post messages directed at both Thompson
02:22and Khloe Kardashian.
02:23Bossip notes that Alexander has been counting the call by the judge as a victory.
02:27She's also been doing some trolling on Instagram.
02:30In a now-deleted post, the outlet reported that Alexander shared a screenshot of TMZ's article
02:35and wrote,
02:36"'Baby Daddy, you have a whole other scandal out here.
02:38But I wrecked your pay?
02:3980 mil doesn't sound like I did.'"
02:42Anyways, Khloe Kardashian, please get your man to take that second DNA test his team kept denying.
02:47What's done in the dark will come to light.
02:49If you're curious about the mention of $80 million, that's roughly how much Thompson received
02:53after signing a five-year deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2015, according to the Bleacher
02:58Report.
02:59The full amount was $82 million.
03:01It's also an amount that seems to prove that his ability to make money may not have taken
03:05the hit that he's suggested.
03:07That's perhaps why Alexander added a second since-deleted message, bringing Khloe Kardashian
03:12into the mix in both posts.
03:13The post read,
03:14"'Denied.
03:15Now let's get to the bottom of what's really going on, Khloe Kardashian, and yes, I tagged
03:19her and what.'"
03:20Although those posts seem to have disappeared, Alexander also shared a rare photo of her son,
03:25adding a heart emoji and writing,
03:26"'My handsome big boy.'"
03:28Hopefully, the adults involved remember that this little one's well-being is what really
03:32matters.
