Tristan Thompson was accused of being a baby daddy when he wasn’t and now his accuser must pay big. Kimberly Alexander made claims that Thompson fathered her child, and he took her to court with a libel lawsuit and just won.

The libel lawsuit against Alexander did not work in her favor at all. Now she is forced to pay up big time. A court has ordered that Thompson’s accuser must pay him $52,000 to $50,000 in general damages plus $2,901.95 in costs.

This ruling, handed down on June 22nd, marked the end of a messy situation for Thompson. The Boston Celtics player admitted to having a tryst with his accuser, but it was years ago. There was no way he was the father of her 5-year-old child.

Thompson has two children, 4-year-old Prince with Jordan Craig and 3-year-old True Thompson with Khloe Kardashian. A DNA test proved he is not the father of Alexander’s child.

Thompson was initially seeking $100,000 in damages, but the court landed on a lower number. It will still be a huge amount to pay for Alexander, and it might serve as a warning for others who might try the same scheme in the future.

This situation seems to be over for Tristan Thompson, who just broke up with Khloe Kardashian officially. Now he is single, and only has two verified children.
