Bad News For Tristan Thompson In Paternity Battle

Feelings Drama

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.
