Tristan Thompson Faces Fan Fury for ‘Denying’ IG Model’s Third Child in Rare Father-Son Post

Tristan Thompson’s recent social media post showing off his 7-year-old son may seem to be a touching family moment, but for those that follow his complicated personal life, it is a stark reminder of his selective involvement as a father in the lifetime of one among his children.

Many of his 3.8 million followers disobeyed him, suggesting that the rationale he’s been away from house is his ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian.

The NBA free agent shared rare photos of himself and his oldest son on Instagram, one among which he shared with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig. In the father-son selfie, they goof around, smile, and make funny faces. He captioned the post, “Lunch dating with my Prince.”

“He is super handsome,” one person said, while one other chimed in, “That’s your twin!!! So handsome.”

Prince Oliver was born in December 2016. Craig dated Thompson from 2014 to 2016 and has he suggested that Thompson cheated on her with Khloé Kardashian while Craig was still pregnant.

While some fans went wild over the 2’s bond, others couldn’t help but indicate that Thompson has never shared similar photos of his third child, a son named Theo, whom he shares with fitness influencer Maralee Nichols.

Born in December 2021, Theo arrived just months before Thompson and Khloé Kardashian welcomed Tatum, their second child together. The pregnancy scandal comes a number of years after Thompson first embarrassed the Good American founder by kissing family friend Jordyn Woods.

One person wrote under Prince’s photo: “Oh how cute, and your third child? Where are those posts?”

Another continued to ask, “Where is the other kid? Or has Khloé not given you permission to see him yet?”

A 3rd person wrote: “When you continue to say no to your youngest child and continue to post about others, it says a lot about your character. Based on what I’ve read about your mom, would she be proud of you for denying an innocent child the best that life has to offer. You were a conscientious adult, you flew to his mom.”

Initially, the previous Cleveland Cavaliers forward denied being the daddy of the kid, but later confirmed his paternity with a paternity test. Once DNA evidence emerged that he fathered a baby outside of his relationship with the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, he publicly apologized to her.

“Khloé, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and the humiliation that I’ve caused you,” he said. “You don’t deserve the way I’ve treated you over the years. My actions were certainly not consistent with how I see you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am deeply sorry.”

The fallout from Thompson’s infidelity led to the 2 splitting as a romantic couple. According to social media and her wildly successful reality show, “The Kardashians,” the 2 are still working hard to co-parent for the sake of their children, True, 6, and Tatum, 23 months. Still, fans have noticed some discrepancies in how she shows off her kids. While there are many photos of True and Tatum online, critics have criticized that there are fewer photos of Prince and none of Theo.
