MARALEE Nichols shared a new photo of her son which she shares with Tristan Thompson as the two celebrate their first Christmas together without the NBA player.
The Sacramento Kings star was snubbed by the Kardashians as he was banned from their vacation photoshoot.
Maralee, 31, took to her Instagram Stories on Christmas morning to share a photo with her newborn son.
The new mom rocked her baby as they wore matching pajama sets for the special day.
The brunette beauty was sitting on a festive blanket in front of a white Christmas tree, littered with shiny gifts.
Maralee looked down at her baby as the family Pomeranian stood guard in front.
EXCLUDED
The new photo came as Tristan Thompson, 30, received a huge snub from the Kar-Jenner clan.
The NBA player was banned from the family vacation photoshoot after news of his affair with Maralee was announced.
Kim and Khloe shared Christmas photos on their respective Instagrams on Friday, in honor of Christmas Eve, and they’ve included all of their kids but none of their baby dads.
Khloe made sure to leave Tristan, who she shares True with, of all family photos after making her feel “embarrassed” over her latest fraud scandal.
BAD BATTLE
The father-of-three is currently in a legal battle with Maralee Nichols over paternity and child support after giving birth on December 1.
The former fitness instructor quietly filed a financial support complaint against Tristan in June, claiming that she and the athlete conceived the baby on his birthday in March.
At the time, Khloe and Tristan were still in an “exclusive” relationship.
The Canadian native initially claimed the affair only lasted one night, but has since admitted to having met Maralee on several occasions.
Tristan did not deny being the father of the child, but he requested that a paternity test be performed.
THE KHLOE CRISIS
Khloe would be “embarrassed” and “mortified” by Tristan’s behavior.
A source recently told The Sun, “To call Khloe upset would be an understatement.
“Khloe suspected Tristan of hitting on him during Covid, but was unaware that he had invited other women to his home until the legal documents were released.
“She sees her place as an extension of hers and is mortified now that she knows the mother of her new baby has spent time there.”
SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS
Their battle for fatherhood recently took a bad turn when Tristan accused his new mom of having “herpes” during her pregnancy.
The basketball star alleged Nichols’ “medical reasons” for pointing to the induced labor earlier this month were due to a sexually transmitted disease, court documents show.
“Since opening our private files to the media, I have been contacted by a source confirming that I should be verified as the petitioner [Maralee] was diagnosed with herpes, ”said the documents, obtained by Ace Showbiz.
“Therefore, it would make sense for the petitioner to have a designated delivery date,” they concluded.
However, Maralee denied all the allegations and fired back, “I was induced on November 29, 2021, because I had a placenta abnormality.
“There is no other medical reason why I needed to be induced,” she replied.
