Tristan Thompson Is Letting His Past Guide Him Rather Than Feel Guilty

Tristan Thompson took a page out of Khloe Kardashian’s inspirational, subliminal message, quote book.

The NBA star, who cheated on Kardashian countless times, seems to be reflecting on his past missteps and looking to the future.

The new player of the Chicago Bulls posted an inspirational quote to his Instagram on Wednesday, March 16.

The message read, “Let the past guide you rather, than making you feel guilty. Let the future excite you, rather than making you feel anxious. Let the present be a gift to you to feel alive, rather than a curse that makes you live in the past or future.”

Thompson recently welcomed his third child with his third baby-momma.

After a very public and scandalous paternity scandal last year, Thompson owned up to fathering a child with fitness model Maralee Nichols.

Nichols got pregnant on or around Thompson’s 30th birthday celebration last March.

The athlete was still with Kardashian at the time of conception.

The Blast recently reported that the NBA player and reality TV star may have been engaged prior to their breakup last summer.

Last February, the ‘KUWTK’ star stirred up engagement rumors after she posted a photo to Instagram wearing a massive diamond ring on her left hand, ring finger. The photo was used to promote her clothing line, Good American, but anyone with brain knows that there was a deeper meaning to the pic.

She continued to flaunt the rock on social media, but never confirmed or denied engagement rumors.

Nichols and Thompson struck up a “relationship” on Snapchat, which is where the NBA star reportedly told the fitness model he was “engaged.”

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, Theo, before his December 2021 birth.

In a message sent in April 2021, the fitness model 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.”

Khloe and Tristan eventually broke up in June 2021 following a wild night out with multiple women for the NBA player.

According to the Daily Mail, Thompson was spotted at a Bel Air house party on Friday, June 18, and was reportedly seen entering a room with three other women. He emerged 30 minutes later looking “disheveled” the outlet reports.

His wild night came just one day after he was spotted with Khloe and their daughter True Thompson while out at lunch.
