Basketball player, Tristan Thompson has sent a cease and desist letter to Instagram model, Sydney Chase amid cheating claims and has threatened to sue her for defamation
The NBA player said Sydney Chase’s claim that they “hooked up” in January and he spoke to her last in April is a lie. He’s also threatening to sue if she continues making the claim.
Tristan, who is back with Khloe Kardashian, had his attorney, Marty Singer, send a cease and desist letter to Sydney Chase. In the letter, obtained by TMZ, Marty Singer calls Sydney’s allegations “malicious defamatory fabrications,” adding, “Mr. Thompson had no relationship with you whatsoever and he never sent you any such texts.”
Singer goes on to accuse Chase of making up quotes from Tristan and having no proof to back up her claims, and blasts her by saying, “It is obvious that you are a liar.”
The letter concludes by saying if Chase doesn’t stop “defaming” Thompson in the media or online, “you do so at your peril since you may find yourself in court attempting to defend your indefensible misconduct.”
Thompson’s attorney also sent a cease and desist letter to Adam22, host of the “No Jumper” podcast on which Sydney Chase initially made the cheating allegations.
“No Jumper” has already removed the portion of Sydney’s interview where she talks about the alleged fling.
As for Sydney Chase, she isn’t backing down. She responded to Tristan’s legal threat, saying she has not received a cease and desist letter.
She adds, “Let this be a lesson to not let anyone no matter the money or fame they have, to shut you down or tarnish your name.”
