Once paternity has been confirmed, I am looking forward to raising my son peacefully. Everyone I hurt, or who I disappointed in this process publicly or privately, I deeply regret it.
This is not what Khloe deserves. You are not worthy of the pain and humiliation that I caused to you. It is unfair that I have treated your over the years.

Tristan, who was the father of Maralee, had repeatedly requested a paternity check before the revelations. However, as of November, it was not known if she had taken one.
