"I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established, I look forward to amicably raising our son. I sincerely apologize to everyone I've hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both publicly and privately." Thompson wrote.
I am sorry Khloe
While admitting his philandering ways, Tristan Thompson apologised to the mother of his daughter Khloe for disappointing her.
"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. My actions have certainly not lined up with the way I view you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry." Thompson added.
The latest turn of events came barely weeks after Thompson slammed Nichols for trying to chase clout with the whole issue.
Paternity test case
According to the NBA player, Nichols was wrong to alert the media about their secret affair and her pregnancy.
In a quick rejoinder, Nichols defended herself and held that she never filed for child support before even the birth of her baby as earlier alleged.
Briefly News understands Thompson has earlier asked a judge for an emergency gag order to silence Maralee talking about the paternity case.
