Khloe found out about the affair and the pregnancy just days later, with Maralee filing a paternity lawsuit in December 2021.
Tristan eventually admitted his guilt and publicly apologised to Khloe for his unfaithfulness by issuing a statement.
The NBA star said in an Instagram post on January 3: "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."
