Khloe Kardashian's best friend Khadijah Haqq slams cheating Tristan Thompson in thinly veiled social media post about love and respect
Khloe Kardashian’s closest friend has taken a thinly veiled swipe at basketball player Tristan Thompson amid claims that he repeatedly cheated on the heavily pregnant socialite.
Thompson, 27, has been widely slammed after video and images emerged of the Cleveland Cavaliers star kissing various women, including one who claims to be expecting his child.
Heavily pregnant Khloe, 33, is said to be devastated by his alleged philandering, and childhood friend Khadijah Haqq – the sister of former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Malika Haqq – has since posted a pointed quote on Instagram.

Taking a line from former basketball player John Wooden’s book, Wooden: A Lifetime of Observations and Reflections on and off the Court, she posted: ‘The best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.’
The post appeared to be a dig at Thompson, who was booed and jeered by his own supporters while playing for the Cavaliers against the New York Knicks on Wednesday evening.
Khloe is due to give birth any day now, while also dealing with the fact that her longtime boyfriend allegedly cheated on her with multiple women.

Surveillance video surfaced Tuesday night of Thompson at a hookah lounge in Washington, DC with two women. The video is from October when Khloe was three months pregnant.
In the footage, Thompson is seen sitting on a couch with the two women. The athlete appears to kiss one, identified only as Marie, and grabs her hand.
Thompson also puts his face in the second woman's chest as she laughs. Marie then reaches over and rubs her hand across Thompson's crotch.

Sources close to Marie has since told TMZ that she was given the impression Thompson's relationship with Khloe was casual.
Marie said she ended her fling with the NBA player after she learned Thompson had been dating the TV personality for a year and was expecting a baby with her.
A woman by the name of Stephanie is also claiming now that she is pregnant, possibly with Thompson's child.

She has posted several raunchy text messages she claims are between her and the basketball player.
In one message, he allegedly writes: 'I would pull ya hair and kiss you then rip ya clothes off'.
Stephanie, who goes by the name @ms.stephaniee on Instagram, also shared a sex tape she alleges is of her and Thompson.
Thompson's cheating scandal started early Tuesday when the DailyMail.com exclusively reported that the athlete was seen kissing a woman Saturday night at the Penthouse at Dream Downtown in New York.

Video from inside the club shows Thompson and the woman, identified as 28-year-old Lani Blair, getting cozy and making out.
They were later seen entering the Four Seasons Hotel where Thompson was staying.
On Sunday night the pair was caught on video leaving the hotel and heading to the Soho House, a private member's only club in Manhattan.
Blair was carrying an overnight bag and wearing the same outfit she had on the night before. They returned to the hotel around 5am on Monday.

Thompson was seen in video talking on what appears to be Blair's phone and furtively looking around before walking into the hotel, while also carrying a bottle of water and his own phone in his hands.
The two then spent some time hanging out in the lobby while Thompson continued to speak on the phone.
Later that night, Thompson headed off to work as the Cavaliers took on the New York Knicks on Monday.
At around 8pm that night, almost 48 hours after the two were first seen kissing at a club downtown, Blair was seen leaving the hotel in the same outfit but also carrying a Louis Vuitton bag.
Coming soon: The reality star is reportedly experiencing early contractions, which were brought on after she saw a video of her longtime beau allegedly cheating on her with another women over the weekend
It has since been reported that Khloe may be welcoming her daughter sooner than expected.
The reality star is reportedly experiencing early contractions, which were brought on after she saw a video of her longtime beau cheating on her with another women over the weekend, according to TMZ.
Khloe's entire family is now flying out to Cleveland to be by her side, with Kim and Kourtney coming in from the Turks and Caicos and the rest of the clan jetting east from Los Angeles.
Kris Jenner is due to arrive on Wednesday, having been the first to get on a plane after hearing the news.
Khloe is said to be desperate to get away from the father of her child, but is trapped in Cleveland.
'Khloé shipped everything to Cleveland. She was fully moved in there,' an insider explained to Us Weekly.
'She was planning on raising the baby there full-time and making that her and her daughter’s home. Now she just wants to get the hell out of Cleveland, but she can’t fly.'
