Maralee Nichols is reacting to Tristan Thompson's announcement that a paternity test confirmed he is the father of her newborn son.
"There was never any doubt that Tristan Thompson was the father of Maralee Nichols' baby," a rep for Nichols shared.
"Tristan made numerous false and defamatory statements and declarations about Maralee over the past few months, and she is taking his contrite statement today in the context of all of those statements," the statement shared with People continues.
The ex-boyfriend of Khloé Kardashian – with whom he shares a daughter – was taken to court to prove paternity of a baby boy he allegedly fathered with a woman he met while he and Kardashian were an item. The NBA player announced Tuesday that he is indeed the father of fitness maven Nichols’ child.
