FORMER NBA player Tristan Thompson’s baby mama Maralee Nichols has posted new videos of their baby son Theo enjoying time in Disneyland.
The NBA power forward has yet to meet his one-year-old son, who was conceived with Maralee when Tristan was still in a relationship with Khloe Kardashian, 38.

Maralee, 31, gave her followers an inside look at her and her son’s day at Disneyland on her Instagram Stories.
Several videos showed Theo dancing on a boat while floating through the It’s A Small World ride.
In one video, Theo jumps up and down and screams: “yay!” as he sways to the famous song.
Another photo shows Maralee holding her son on the Dumbo ride with the caption: “My best friend for life.”
The model recently shared photos and videos on her Instagram of a separate trip to an aquarium with the one-year-old.
One clip showed the pair kneeling in front of a glass fish tank while different species of marine animals swam past.
A second recording included in the post captured Theo waving at a penguin as it floated on the water’s surface.
The latter half of the video showed Maralee and Theo standing outside near another of the aquarium’s exhibits.
A series of photos of the fitness model and her son accompanied the videos.
One snapshot featured Maralee helping Theo to stand as they both looked into a gigantic fish tank while the other showed the tiny tot leaning against the glass tank as he attempted to see into its depths.
The outings come as Tristan has reportedly yet to meet his son, and seems to want nothing to do with the boy.
THE SCANDAL
Maralee and Tristan had a one-night stand in March 2021 when the basketball player cheated on his then-girlfriend Khloe.
During Tristan’s love child scandal, Khloe believed she was in an exclusive relationship with her longtime, on-again off-again, boyfriend.
The then-Chicago Bulls forward asked Maralee for a paternity test, but later confessed to having sex with his former mistress.
Tristan is also the father of his son Prince, five, with ex Jordan Craig, and shares his four-year-old daughter True with Khloe.

The scandal became part of the season finale of Hulu’s The Kardashians.
The model had to sue Tristan for child support payments and their affair came to light as a result of the paternity suit.
According to legal documents from August, Tristan offered to pay Maralee $75,000 in hush money instead of paying monthly child support claiming she would be “better off.”
When they settled their paternity case, Tristan was ordered to pay $9,500 a month in child support.
He also told the Instagram model that he had no plans on spending time with or getting to know their son.
Tristan’s love child scandal was the last straw for Khloe, who had been dating Tristan on and off since 2016 and already endured his cheating in the past.
ONE MORE TRY?
Despite his infidelity, Tristan seems to be determined to “make it work” with the reality star.
A source told Us Weekly: “Tristan is always trying to get Khloe back, he still loves her and wants to make it work between them.
“They’re friends and great co-parents, but he wants more.”
Another insider told Us that the couple was not “back together” and Khloe was upset that she had to turn the comments off on her birthday post for Tristan because “people will come for her.”
The source said: “Khloé will never not support Tristan because he’s the father of her two kids. Khloé called him the ‘best father’ because that’s how she feels and she will always stand by that.”
They continued: “Despite whatever happened between them, she has decided to focus on the positive because her children are the most important people in her life.
“She’s able to separate their past and appreciates the way he shows up for his kids.”
Khloe recently made a very long post to honor her baby daddy.
She shared several photos that include a rare shot of his and Khloe’s second child smiling while sitting in his sister True Thompson’s lap while wearing a Halloween onesie.
