Tristan Thompson shared photos with his son Prince Thompson.
From first glance and without any context, TT looks like a doting, supportive and hands-on father. He is just that to three of his four children.

However, there is one son he's completely abandoned and his fans aren’t letting him get away with posing as an all-around good father.
TT shares Prince with his ex-girlfriend, Jordan Craig, and two children with Khloe Kardashian.
The ex-couple share a daughter, True Thompson, and an infant, whose name has yet to be revealed.

Tristan Is Only Present In 3 Of His 4 Kids' Lives
The NBA star secretly got Maralee Nichols pregnant on his 30th birthday while he was in a committed relationship with Khloe. She welcomed a baby boy, Theo Thompson, on December 1, 2021.
When she filed a paternity lawsuit against Tristan in November 2021, he initially denied fathering the child.
But lo and behold, a handy dandy paternity test proved he was LYING. He then apologized to KK and admitted to fathering a child with Nichols.
He hasn’t been present in Theo’s life and owed her thousands of dollars in unpaid child support.
When Tristan shared the photos with his first-born, his fans immediately ripped into him.
“A Young King in the making, My Prince 👑,” the caption reads.

“Don’t forget the baby you tried to lie about…” one person commented.
“Wonder how ur other child will feel when he’s looks back at how much you adored the others and rejected him,” another wrote.
One asked, “Where the other baby?”
“Hopefully you teach him to treat women with respect unlike you,” this person savagely responded.

Tristan really seems to be on his “dad s**t,” because just a few days ago, he shared several photos with his four-year-old, True.
Once again, his comments section was inundated with negative thoughts about his parenting style.

“If only you were a father to all your children not just the ‘selected’ ones,” one comment read.
“The only child he takes care of,” another replied.
“If Khloe wasn’t a celebrity and didn’t have her own money, he wouldn’t have anything to do with True either,” a rather harsh comment read.
“Sad all your kids can’t get this love,” yet another person wrote.

Nichols recently shared a big milestone for her and Tristan’s son.
The one-year-old is officially walking!
Nichols shared a video of Theo walking in a kid’s play area.
The caption read, “My baby is walking everywhere now 🥺.”
Tristan Skipped Out On Paying Child Support & Got Caught!
The Blast previously reported on Thompson having to pay retroactive child support to Nichols for his months of avoiding paying it.
Following a brief court appearance last year, he is required to pay $9,500 in child support a month. TT also reportedly paid his baby mama’s legal fees and of course, he let her have full custody of the baby.
This culmination comes after the two have been in a legal battle for just over a year pertaining to paternity and support.
Thompson’s lawyer released a statement to Us Weekly insisting that the basketball player is cooperating and “is paying, and has paid, child support to Ms. Nichols retroactive to the date she delivered the child.”
The lawyer’s statement came after Nichols’s attorney claimed that “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.”
