Tristan Thompson publicly criticizes his estranged father for leaving his disabled brother behind after separating from their late mother.

Tristan Thompson is speaking out about his strained relationship with his father, Trevor Thompson, as he fights for legal guardianship of his younger brother, Amari Thompson, who has disabilities. According to Radar Online, the NBA star recently filed court documents detailing the abandonment he and his brother have experienced from their father.

Tristan, who is 32 years old, shared that his father left him and his brother after separating from their mother, Andrea Marie Brooks, in 2014. Sadly, their mother passed away in 2023, leaving Tristan to take care of Amari on his own. The basketball champion was granted temporary guardianship of his brother by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge, but is now seeking permanent guardianship.

In his filing, Tristan explained that before their mother's death, she had sole custody of Amari and their father was ordered to pay child support. However, Trevor has not provided any financial support for Amari and has had no contact with his son since 2014.

Tristan's petition for permanent guardianship is based on his concern for Amari's well-being. As a minor with multiple medical conditions, Amari requires constant care and support. Tristan, who already has four children of his own, is the only person who can afford Amari's expensive medical needs and provide him with a good quality of life.

If granted guardianship, Tristan plans to use the $114k inheritance left by their mother to secure Amari's future. He also intends to travel with Amari and ensure he receives proper healthcare. However, the court has requested more information about their father, whom Tristan has no contact with and no way of reaching. He believes it would be against the interest of justice to inform his father about the guardianship hearing, as he has not been involved in Amari's life since their mother's death.

Tristan clarified that he has not had any contact with his father since their mother's death and barely had any before that. The last time he saw Trevor was at their mother's funeral, and even after hiring a legal professional to track him down, he was unsuccessful. Tristan is asking the court to grant him permanent guardianship without his father's involvement.

In conclusion, Tristan is fighting for the well-being of his younger brother, who has been abandoned by their father. He is seeking permanent guardianship to ensure Amari receives the care and support he needs, and is willing to use his own resources to provide for his brother's future.
