Maralee Nichols is choosing to focus on the positive and not her baby daddy Tristan Thompson not being a part of his son's life.

As you might know, the social media personality welcomed the basketballer's third child, son Theo, in December, but his birth was shrouded in so much controversy.

Baby Theo was conceived when Tristan reconciled with his now ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian— after cheating on her — and they were preparing to welcome their second child. Nevertheless, Nichols remains grateful to be a mother to such a bundle of joy.

In an Instagram Story update, Nichola shared a post detailing a graph of the time spent with children as they age. The post was shared by writer Sahil Bloom who shared data on the time humans spend with those around them over the course of their lives.

The six graphs covered key groups like family, friends, co-workers, children, partners, and alone, but the focus for the fitness enthusiast was children. Bloom revealed that time spent with odd peaks in one’s 30s and declines sharply thereafter. He also derived key lessons from the graph, which translated to "Time with your children is short — the "Magic Years" will fly by if you let them. Be present in every moment."

The writer advised his followers, "slow down and embrace the sweetness that children bring to your life." Bloom’s post seemed to resonate with Nicholas, who shared a screenshot on her Stories alongside a heartwarming message.

"I cherish every minute with my son ?❤️. Spending time with him is more important to me than anything. Blessed to have held him in my arms every day with him since he was born," she wrote.

The social media personality’s post can be interpreted as a shade at her baby daddy, given that she once alleged that Tristan hasn’t been present as a father to his son. The Blast shared the news in February when the mother-of-one called out the basketballer.

In an interview, a representative of Nichola shared that Tristan was an absent father who didn’t contribute financially despite headlines that claimed he paid thousands of dollars in child support.

According to the source, "Despite news reports stating otherwise, Tristan Thompson has done nothing to support their son. He has not made any attempt to meet their son, nor has he provided any financial assistance."

The representative then added, "In the future, we hope that reporters covering this situation contact us to confirm any facts before publishing."

Nichols Might Have Shades Tristan Thompson For Child Support

This isn’t the first time Theo’s mom has subtly shaded her baby daddy through her social media. Such was the case in August when The Blast reported that the doting mother had a strong message for those without "action."

Nichols, who has maintained a low-key social media presence since welcoming her son, flaunted her killer body during a workout session at the gym. She displayed her killer curves in figure-hugging two-piece gym wear that featured a pair of leggings and a long-sleeved crop top.

The personal trainer posed sideways, flaunting her perky derrière while giving a fierce face to the camera. While her body was sure to turn heads, fans couldn’t get over the cryptic caption, which they believed was targeted at the former Cleaveland Cavaliers Player.

She wrote, "Less time on captions, more time on actions ??‍♀️." It didn’t take long for fans’ tongues to start wagging, with one user writing, "Oh gosh mama throwing a little shade hell yeah he needs to start paying up ?."

This fan, however, believed that the message was dedicated to Khloe, writing, "Girl, yes, living your best life! Looking better than any of those girls without saying names!"

This angry follower commented, "The dead beat will have a son that hates him and it will be his own fault. So sorry you have to deal with this shit. It’s none of our business, but the visibility is so freaking irking."
