The 32-year-old Texas native, who had a secret fling with the NBA player after he allegedly reached out to her in 2021, was snapped dressed casually.
She opted for a cream cut-off Los Angeles sweatshirt over a black bodysuit, and light denim jeans ripped at the knee which accentuated her perfect figure.
The beauty headed out in a pair of black flip-flops for her mother-and-son outing and seemed in high spirits.
Maralee wore her long dark locks tied in a side ponytail and added a pair of black shades for her beach look as she carried a khaki and white striped bag full of mom essentials.
The young parent pushed Theo’s black trike while scrolling on her phone, before finding the perfect spot on the beach to play with her adorable son.
She dressed him in a cute outfit; matching a pair of colorful shorts with a white t-shirt, and a little denim jacket with grey slip-on shoes over white socks.

Maralee also took along a little denim hat for Theo to keep his head safe from the burning sun.
In one touching snap, she can be seen holding the youngster high on her shoulder as she strolls barefoot across the sand.
Maralee beamed as she got her feet wet and filmed the little boy as he paddled in the sea while holding his mom’s hand.
She later uploaded a short video hiding his face to her Instagram account for her thousands of followers on the social media app.
Other photos published by The U.S. Sun show Maralee pointing across the beach and chatting with Theo, before sitting down on the sand and helping him waddle forward as he learns to walk.
Maralee also took her son to a nearby play area and pushed him on the swings before assisting him on a climbing section.
As the months go by and Theo gets older, social media users have continued to criticize Tristan, 32, for not being in his life.
He now lives just minutes away in a new home close to baby mama Khloe and has signed a contract with the LA Lakers.

However, Tristan still reportedly refuses to meet his youngest son.
CHILD SUPPORT
When his latest cheating scandal emerged, the public discovered Tristan fathered a love child with his former mistress during his supposedly exclusive relationship with Khloe.
According to legal documents from August 2022, the sports star offered to pay Maralee $75,000 in hush money instead of going through the courts for monthly child support.
The athlete allegedly told the model that she would be “better off” with the lump sum because she would not get much from him if she hired counsel.
When the two eventually settled their paternity case, the court ordered the sports star to pay about $9,500 per month in child support, according to reports.
In the aftermath, Tristan reportedly told the model that he is not interested in spending time with Theo and has no intention of getting to know their son.
Although Maralee has spoken through a rep in the aftermath of the cheating scandal, she has never told her full story and continues to live a low-key life.
In a lengthy statement, she insisted: “He told me he was single and co-parenting. I would never have gotten involved with Tristan if I thought he was in a relationship.
She told E! News she learned she was pregnant a few weeks after her trip to Boston to see Tristan, which was one of many nights they spent together.
AFFAIR HISTORY
According to her, she told him about her pregnancy in North Carolina after he invited her to see him at the end of April 2021, and she later gave birth in December.
Tristan insisted their relationship was nothing more than a hookup, stating in legal documents: “Contrary to [Nichols’] many inferences in her declaration, we did not have a serious ongoing relationship.
“We saw each other sporadically between December 2020 and March 13, 2021 and did not have sexual intercourse in California during that time,” insisting the baby was conceived on his birthday in Houston.
Meanwhile, Khloe Kardashian, 38, shares her five-year-old daughter, True, and her son – whose moniker starts with a T – with the newly-signed LA Lakers player.
The Good American founder was left shattered after learning via a news article that Tristan had fathered a love child, just weeks after planting their embryo for baby number two with a surrogate.
The drama played out during explosive scenes on the family’s new Hulu reality show, with Khloe’s mom Kris Jenner and siblings left reeling by Tristan’s behavior yet again.
Despite multiple cheating scandals, the statuesque star appears to be back in good graces with the clan, and fans have speculated they are now back together, although her rep has denied they are a couple.
An insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun that Tristan was “100 percent” in attendance during the Kardashian’s Easter celebrations at their vacation homes in Palm Springs.
The source said last week: “Tristan has basically been welcomed back into the Kardashian family fold yet again and is spending a lot of time with them.
“He drove up with Khloe to Palm Springs early last week and was there until Sunday with their kids, Kris, Kim, and the whole gang.”
