Tristan Thompson, the NBA star most famous for his relationship with Khloe Kardashian, just had a third child. But, despite still dating the reality television star through this spring, the mother in question is Maralee Nichols, a personal trainer. According to court documents filed by Nichols, Thompson allegedly demanded she get an abortion, messaging the new mother that he “wont be involved at all [sic].”
Thompson has made tens of millions of dollars for years. The Sun scores his net worth around $45 million, rendering even the most minimal child support a mere rounding error for a celebrity. Make no mistake. Despite Thompson’s pity party, moaning to Nichols he’ll be “unemployed” following his impending retirement from basketball, his request that his paramour abort his third child with a third woman does give credence to the absurd notion abortion is little more than a way for men to escape responsibility for their actions.
