Tristan Thompson and Maralee Nichols's alleged son makes Instagram debut

Tristan Thompson has apologised to Khloe Kardashian after a new paternity test revealed he fathered a baby boy with fitness instructor Maralee Nichols.

The 30-year-old basketball star issued a statement amid an ongoing paternity lawsuit filed by Nichols, claiming Thompson is the father of her newborn child.

Nichols, who gave birth to their son on 2 December last year, is suing the Sacramento Kings player for child support and other pregnancy-related fees.

Court documents showed Thompson admitted to having sex with Nichols on his birthday in March last year while Thompson was dating Kardashian.
