How Much Does Tristan Thompson Have To Pay?

The court filing states Tristan, 33, missed several payments between September 2023 and January 2024. According to the legal documents, the NBA player has been ordered to pay $57,916.

Nichols, 32, and the Cleveland Cavalier share a son named Theo — born in Dec. 2021.

US Weekly reportedly verified that Thompson was paying child support to Nichols in August 2022. At the time, his attorney reportedly said the Canadian-American “is paying, and has paid, child support to Ms. Nichols retroactive to the date she delivered the child.”

The Baby Scandal

Just days before the fitness model gave birth, headlines stated Thompson was the father of her child, US Weekly reports. The multimillionaire denied the claims seemingly because he was in a relationship with Khloé Kardashian, 39, during this time.

The reality star was utterly unaware of her man’s involvement with Nichols. She reportedly broke up with Tristan for good after discovering he was unfaithful.

They, too, were expecting a second child via surrogate. Their son Tatum was born seven months later. Additionally, the pair also have a daughter, True, 6.

Tristan Thompson has a history of cheating and embarrassing the mom of two. As previously reported, a smooching incident occurred between him and Jordan Woods, Khloe’s sister Kylie’s ex-best friend.

Alleged History of Not Paying Child Support?

Tristan also has a 7-year-old son named Prince with his ex-Jordan Craig.

Additionally, Craig’s sister alleged that Thompson had not financially supported Prince in Oct. 2023. She stated he was ignoring his firstborn child. It is unclear if the matters were resolved behind closed doors, as Thompson never publicly acknowledged the claims.

Tristan Thompson was awarded guardianship over his youngest brother, Amari, who has epilepsy, in February 2024. Their mother passed in January 2023. The 18-year-old moved in with Khloé for a short stint.

Khloé and Tristan continue to co-parent, but the Good American co-founder has no plans to spark back up a romance with the baller.
