Tristan Thompson is accused of ignoring his eldest son and failing to pay child support

Tristan Thompson was accused of not being a present parent to his eldest son Prince in a scathing message from his ex-girlfriend's sister Jordan Craig.

“It was so hard not to speak out, and out of respect for my sister's privacy I haven't done so in over seven years, but this is just too much.” Kai Craig wrote via her Instagram on Thursday, October 5, “It's so painful to see Tristan find the time to do these nice things for others but can't seem to show up and be a real parent to my nephew Prince.”

Kai's comments come shortly afterwards Khloe Kardashian And Kim Kardashian praised Thompson, 32, in the latest episode of The Kardashians.

“I know the guys are going to hate me for this and you're going to hate us and you're going to think Khloe is whatever,” Kim, 42, said on Thursday's episode. “It's so crazy because he's such a good friend and such a good dad, but he just hasn't been able to be a loyal friend in this area.”

Kim further gushed that Thompson has been a “really good person and friend” lately and has “improved” with her four children: North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4.

(Kim shares her children with her ex-husband Kanye Westfrom whom she separated in 2021.)

Kai contradicted Kim's comments, claiming that Thompson didn't make the same effort with his 6-year-old son, Prince.

“The fact that he can take other children to school and activities in the same city but never sees or speaks to his own son unless it is for a party or a planned photo op is tempting and inexcusable.” , Kai claimed He literally “ignores” Prince and doesn’t even know where he goes to school.

Kai also claimed that Thompson hasn't paid child support to 32-year-old Jordan or Prince's school fees “for a very long time.”

“Tristan has a house that he is building and renovating. He was able to live there during the renovations, but we had some crazy weather for California, like extreme rain. “Tristan's roof collapsed on his house and caused flooding,” Khloé explained in the season three finale The Kardashianswhich aired in July. “So now Tristan and Amari are staying at my house until his house is repaired.”

She continued, “God has a plan and God doesn’t want him to be alone right now. And why should he be? I just think it's what the family does. When things really start, all you have left is your family and Tristan and I are family. We will be a family for the rest of our lives.”
