The video was set to the song Sun Is Shining by Bob Marley, and took place on a sunny day.
The 31-year-old added a ‘good vibes’ sticker to the story, along with a film-camera-effect filter.
In the clip, Theo wore an adorable white set, with a hooded top featuring animal ears.
The video showed the young boy as he toddled across a pristine beach, walking past a palm tree before with his arms out wide for balance.
NBA power forward Tristan, 32, has yet to meet his one-year-old son, who was conceived with Maralee when he was still in a relationship with Khloe Kardashian, 38.
Maralee’s name first grabbed the media’s attention around her son’s birth, when it was revealed that Tristan had an affair with the fitness trainer.
Tristan issued a public apology to Khloe after paternity results confirmed he was the father.
According to legal documents from August, the Chicago Bulls forward offered to pay Maralee $75,000 in hush money instead of paying monthly child support.
He allegedly told Maralee that she would be “better off” with the $75,000 because she wouldn’t get much in child support.
They eventually settled their paternity case and Tristan was ordered to pay $9.5K a month in child support.
He also told the Instagram model that he had no plans on spending time with nor would get to know their son.

WHERE’S DAD?
According to one source, Tristan has been notably absent from the one-year-old’s life, and has “no immediate plans” to meet his son.
The source shared: “Tristan is very absent from Theo’s life. He hasn’t met Theo nor has he initiated any meetings.
“He doesn’t have any immediate plans to meet his son face to face.”
Kardashian fans on Reddit wasted no time dragging Tristan for how much he’ll be paying in child support and for his apparent lack of parenting skills.
One user wrote: “Paying $114,000/yr when your net is around $45million is still deadbeat behavior. There’s no reason Theo shouldn’t have the same standard of living as his siblings.”
Another added: “A lot of trash men like Tristan only want to get involved with their kid once they’re paying child support and the kid is costing them $$. No idea why maybe to spite the mom.”
“Someone needs to get that man a vasectomy for Christmas,” vented one critic.
A fourth comment read: “Sorry, but he gets no credit now, a year later, after dragging her name through the dirt & being a textbook deadbeat.”
BACK WITH KHLO?
Khloe and Tristan share two children: daughter True, four; and a son, whose name has yet to be revealed.
Fans speculated that The Kardashians star had welcomed her cheating ex back into her life after the unexpected death of his mother.
In January, the duo reunited and jetted to Toronto, Canada, as Tristan grieved for his late mother.
He is also a dad to a 5-year-old son, Prince, with Jordan Craig.
