Corey Gamble has defended Tristan Thompson following the backlash he has received to the news that he is in fact the father to Maralee Nichols’ child.Â
Corey Gamble Defends Tristan Thompson Following The News That He Is The Father To Maralee Nichols’ Child
Tristan, for his part, had initially denied the claims that were being put forward. Although he did admit that he was seeing Maralee, the last thing that he expected was to be a father again.
But once the paternity test confirmed otherwise, he had no choice but to hold his hands up and apologise to everyone for the damage he had caused.
This was because the timeline of events suggested that he had been seeing Maralee when he was still together with none other than Khloe Kardashian.
At the time of the news, Tristan had remarked the following: “Khloé, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years.”
And in an attempt to back Tristan, Corey was spotted in the aftermath of the Lakers game against the Kings holding a T-shirt with Tristan’s name on.
In the picture here, we can see that Corey is holding the t-shirt and showing it to the media. It was apparently the same jersey that Tristan had been wearing during the game, which he gave to Corey.Â
And yet, it is not surprising to see Corey backing him for the following reasons. First of all, the pair have been in the same circles for a significant amount of time. This has been shown by the fact that Corey is Kris Jenner’s boyfriend and therefore is well aware of Tristan.
Secondly, any comments other than showing support, would only go on to alienate Tristan and lead to more scrutiny at a time where the Kardashians would rather do without that.
A source confirmed as much: “[The Kardashian family] is relieved that it seems [Khloé] is finally ready to move on and let go.”
Despite Corey’s best attempts to back him, it is clear that Tristan is more unpopular than he has ever been before. He simply cannot learn from his mistakes.Â
