The Tristan Thompson paternity scandal is finally solved. On Monday evening, the serial cheater admitted to fathering personal trainer Maralee Nichols’ son his Instagram stories with a message to the public and to Khloe Kardashian about the “heartache and humiliation” he has caused. ‘Today, paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols. I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son,” the 30-year old wrote. “I sincerely apologize to everyone I’ve hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both privately and publicly.”

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” the baller said.
He went on to claim his actions don’t “line up” with the way he views the mother of his second child. “My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you,” the father of 3 said. “I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think,” the fertile NBA star wrote. He reiterated, “Again, I am so incredibly sorry.”

Following the news, a source told PEOPLE Khloe “knows about the baby,” and confirmed that she and Thompson “were together in March,” which is when he admitted to hooking up with Nichols, per the court documents.
Congratulations Tristan!
