Tristan Thompson's Mistress, Maralee Nichols, Compares Maternity Leave To A 'Bloodbath'

Maralee Nichols is a single mother and shedding light on giving birth to her first child and Tristan Thompson’s third child.

Despite Thompson’s initial denial, the fitness model gave birth to their child in December.

On February 24, Nichols updated her Instagram page with a candid message to her followers about her son’s name, Theo, and why she chose to give him the name.

The happy mother uploaded a full body photo with her baby hidden from the camera. The two sported a matching white ensemble.

She captioned the photo, “Theo, my little angel baby. I named you Theo because it means, “Gift from God”. I had never been pregnant before and had been told I might not be able to have children. I couldn’t believe I was pregnant, when I saw you on the ultrasound and heard your little heartbeat I knew I would always protect you and keep you safe. I love you more than you’ll ever know.

You bring such joy and happiness into my life. My greatest blessing 🤍."

Nichols left the NBA player off of the birth certificate due to his lack of involvement throughout her pregnancy and delivery.

This is something Nichols shed light on Monday, March 14.

She shared a message from Instagram account, “Fruits of Motherhood,” which read, “I think we need to change the name of ‘maternity leave’ to ‘bloodbath ripped in half fire crotch and nipples sleep deprivation recovery,” so people understand it’s nowhere near ‘vacation.’”

Despite giving birth three months ago, the fitness model is back in the gym and letting her followers know how she’s getting back in shape.

Nichols explained how she’s been able to attain her postpartum revenge body to her 201k Instagram followers.

She captioned one photo of her backside to the mirror, “I eat 5-6 times a day & drink a gallon of water.”

In another Story on March 2, she shared a photo of two Beyond Breakfast Sausage packages.

“I cook breakfast every morning. Super important part of my diet is to eat in the morning. I don’t eat any pork. I love these @beyondmeat breakfast sausages they are delicious 😋,” she wrote.

The fitness model submitted documents on March 4, and they allegedly show Snapchat messages between her and Tristan from last spring.

These documents were exclusively obtained by Us Weekly.

Thompson previously claimed the texts were fake, but Nichols’ lawyer argued that the excerpts demonstrate the athlete’s “unwillingness” and “refusal” to support their son before his December 2021 birth.

In a message sent in April 2021, the Nichols claimed, “You literally just told me you are engaged and are trying to be with your family.. I didn’t even know you were engaged. You have a record of treating me like absolutely crap and this whole situation has been upsetting.”

A few days later, Tristan allegedly responded, “I’m engaged but I will be married soon. I told you I won’t and can’t be in the child life at all by no means … Why not wait till yoj (you) find the right person to have a family with. Why would you want a baby with a man that’s engaged. You wanna keep a mistake.”
