Maralee Nichols on Sunday shared pictures from an outing on a farm she enjoyed with her 19-month-old son Theo, her son with Tristan Thompson.

‘A day on the farm with my best friend!’ the 32-year-old influencer captioned a post of a carousel of clips to her 261,000 followers documenting the summer day.

The fitness professional added, ‘We had soo much fun.’

The mom and son matched in denim blue short overalls and brown straw hats on the summer day at the farm setting, where Theo had fun at a petting zoo.

Nichols wore brown sunglasses and a white tank top with white sneakers on the outing, using a baby carrier in the outdoor outing on the sunny day.

Theo, whose face Nichols leaves out of the photos for privacy reasons, was seen having a good time up close with goats at a petting zoo; and pulling, and riding in a red wagon his mother was seen pulling.

The mother and son were seen walking uphill in a grassy area on the farm grounds. 

Nichols last week shared a photo on the same day that the professional basketball player posted a pair of shots featuring his baby son Tatum, he shares with his former partner Khloe Kardashian, 39.

Thompson, who has past played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, Sacramento Kings, Indiana Pacers and Chicago Bulls, flashed a wide smile as he posed for the snaps with his youngest child also placed a pair of sunglasses on his son before they spent time in front of the camera.

The reality television figure penned a short message in his post’s caption to publicly express his love for his child.

He wrote: ‘Happy birthday my son! You are a reminder of what life represents to me. You have taught me every loss comes a lesson and you are my gift. You are my reminder of all of God’s messages.’

Thompson continued: You are the reason that I began my story. The mistakes along the way are lessons not failures. There is no expiration date to reinventing yourself. Tatum your sweet soul reminds me of God’s grace.’

The professional basketball player concluded by writing that ‘I am so blessed to be your DaDa!’

Several Instagram users took to the post’s caption to express that the athlete was publicly favoring his youngest son over Theo.

Nichols previously named Thompson in a paternity lawsuit in December of 2021.

According to Page Six, the athlete subsequently demanded that a DNA test be performed in order to establish Theo’s parenthood. 

However, it was eventually confirmed that the professional basketball player had, in fact, fathered Nichols’ child. 

The reality television personality went on to issue a lengthy apology via his Instagram Story, in which he publicly acknowledged his status as Theo’s father.

He wrote that he was looking ‘forward to amicably raising’ his son with Nichols.

Thompson also added a special apology for Kardashian whom he felt was particularly hurt by the revelation.

‘Khloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you, You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years,’ he wrote. 

The ‘most expensive’ grocery store in the Hamptons has raised eyebrows this week after a TikToker revealed the exorbitant prices on offer for the rich and famous. 

The tiny supermarket, Round Swamp Farm, has three locations in the ritzy area – in Montauk, East Hampton and Bridgehampton, just a short drive from the music producer Michael Rubin‘s mansion, which hosted a fleet of A-listers this month at his star studded annual White Party. 

Countless celebrities own summer homes in the area, allowing the store to jack up its prices up to 10 times higher than what regular folk find on their shelves. 

As reviewed by TikTok creator Jack’s Dining Room in a video viewed more than four million times, the store’s Montauk location is filled with outlandish prices including $15 for chipotle mayo and $32 for chips and guac. 

‘It’s really good, but I just don’t know how to quantify it,’ he said of the sky-high prices. ‘I wanted it to make me fly or something.’ 

The sun-soaked hub on the East Coast has long been a popular haunt for celebrities looking for a retreat from nearby Manhattan. 

And in the same week that stars including Steven Spielberg and Paul McCartney were spotted on the coastline, footage from inside the Hamptons most opulent shop has gone viral. 

Viewers were stunned to see how just a few items amounted to an eye-popping $200, which wasn’t helped by a tiny pack of grilled shrimp going for $42. 

‘You could probably buy a home,’ joked the reviewer, who slammed the price as ‘highway robbery’ while admitting that the three-inch prawns were ‘pretty big.’ 

For parties like Rubin’s with hundreds of guests, stocking up snacks for guests at Round Swamp Farm would set you back a fortune – where simple chips and guacamole are sold for $32. 

‘This makes Chipotle look like a f***ing steal,’ said the TikToker. ‘These chips and guac better blow my socks off.’  

One of the worst reviewed options was fast food favorite chicken tenders, which came with the store’s own brand $15 pot of chipotle mayo. 

The crazy pricing led Jack’s Dining Room to remark that Round Swamp Farm must be ‘hand farming these chipotles in Mexico and walking them to Montauk’ to justify charging that much. 

Despite its unreasonable cost, the quality mayo was noticeably ‘luscious’, which should have served as the ideal combo for the gigantic tenders. 

‘The girth of a tender… I’m rocking with that, that is a massive tender,’ he remarked.

However, the snack was given an anticlimactic review as the TikToker said it was ‘not worth it’, adding: ‘The chipotle mayo was good, but for $16 f***ing bucks it doesn’t even hold Jersey Mike’s jockstrap.’ 

Among the more inflated products in the lavish supermarket is a $25 bag of granola, which Jack’s Dining Room remarked likely cost the store under a buck to make. 

He said the tiny bag of nuts and grains ‘must be a joke’ at that price, because it was just ‘dry and chewy.’ The TikToker then slated the store for charging ‘whatever they want’, as he moved on to a $32 salmon ‘detox salad’. 

One viewer commented that adding the word ‘detox’ to a product must add $10 to the price, as the salad box only seemed to contain a salmon fillet and a bowl of quinoa. 

‘I would love to see the Erewhon moms and the Hamptons berry moms battle it out for this detox salad’, he joked. 

The creator ended his viral video with an item that Round Swamp Farm is ‘known for’ – its $11 sea salt caramel chocolate chip cookies.

‘I’m not going to lie, these cookies look f***ing crass,’ he began, before adding that Barstool Sports president Dave Portnoy gave them an 8.2/10 rating on his popular food reviews. 

Jack’s Dining Room described the pricey cookies as both ‘crunchy and chewy’, adding that they are ‘loaded with chocolate and some sea salt on top.’

‘These cookies are f***ing amazing… I might eat this entire bag,’ he concluded.

Peter Dutton has launched a scorched Earth attack on Labor’s Voice to Parliament warning it could have ‘Orwellian’ consequences. 

The Opposition Leader said the referendum could ‘have an Orwellian effect where all Australians are equal, but some Australians are more equal than others’ – a direct reference to George Orwell’s satirical novella from 1945, Animal Farm.

The emotive language in the House of Representatives on Monday sparked fierce backlash from Minister for Indigenous Affairs Linda Burney, who said critics were ‘hellbent on dashing the hopes of the people’ and ‘stoking division’.

Ms Burney urged her colleagues on all sides of the debate to avoid ‘playing politics on an issue that should be above partisan politics’.

Mr Dutton is one of about 70 speakers who intend to speak in Parliament this week on the Constitutional Alteration Bill – the legislation which will pave the way for the Voice referendum.

In scathing comments on Monday, he said: ‘The Voice is regressive, not progressive.

‘Because if Australians vote for change then our nation, our democracy, and their lives will be fundamentally altered. And in this case, not for the better. Changing our Constitution to enshrine a Voice will take our country backwards not forwards.

‘And it should be very clear to Australians by now that the Prime Minister is dividing our country not uniting us.

‘If Australians have buyer’s remorse the Voice comes with a no-return policy. It’s here to stay in it. This institution hasn’t even been road-tested.’

Mr Dutton also criticised the government for ‘preferring Australians to be incurious’ about the debate, accusing politicians of ‘dismissing reasonable and legitimate concerns as a scare campaign’.

The Coalition will not stand in the way of the referendum proceeding, despite opposing the Voice itself.

The bill on the Voice will finalise the wording that would be placed in the constitution should the referendum succeed, and the question that would be put to voters.

The referendum is due to be held between October and December this year.

Debate on the Voice follows the release of a parliamentary committee report on the bill, which recommended it pass without changes.

The Liberal party accepts and advocates for recognition for Indigenous people, but are seeking an amendment which would exclude constitutional changes.

But Ms Burney said it is ‘time for recognition’.   

‘It’s time for an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voice to the parliament, because (they) have not enjoyed the same opportunities of so many other Australians,’ she told parliament.

‘Constitutional recognition through a voice to the parliament is about giving Indigenous Australians a say in matters that affect us. It means delivering structural change.’

Ms Burney said the process to establish the voice had not been rushed, instead being developed over many years with the support of Indigenous people and outlined in the 2017 Uluru statement.

While concerns have been raised on the voice being able to advise executive government, the minister said the approach was the right one.

‘It recognises 65,000 years of Australian history, makes our system of government stronger. It makes a practical difference on the ground,’ she said.

A vote on the bill is expected to be held in the lower house next week, before debate shifts to the Senate.

Liberal MP Keith Wolahan, who was part of a parliamentary committee examining the bill on the referendum, said concerns about the voice should not be dismissed.

‘We know that well-meaning Australians will hold views that do not align with the press releases of their corporate employer, their professional associations, their sporting codes, or the views of their family, their friends and their political party,’ he said.

‘(Those who spoke against the voice are) not afflicted by subconscious racism or bedwetting, or the odious slur ‘Judas betrayal’. They are our fellow Australians.’

Australians will be asked whether they support the establishment of the Voice to Parliament to recognise Indigenous people in the Constitution. The government has set aside $364.6million in this Budget for the referendum.

The vote will need support from the majority of Australians in the majority of states to be successful. 

The Voice will establish a body that can ‘make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’. 

This body – comprised of Indigenous people from a range of ages and demographics – would give advice to the government. 

But critics argue it’s unclear exactly what they could advise on.

As it stands, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has reassured the public that members of the Voice will be appointed by and within Indigenous communities.

They will serve on the committee ‘for a fixed period of time’, which is yet to be determined. 

The way the communities choose their representatives will be agreed upon by the local communities in tandem with the government as part of a ‘post referendum process’ to ensure cultural legitimacy, he said.

If a majority of Australians vote in favour of the Voice, the Constitution would be amended as follows: 

1. There shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice;

2. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples; 

3. The Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions powers and procedures. 

Mr Albanese said he was aware holding a referendum ‘is a risk’, given ‘they usually don’t succeed’.

He said earlier this year: ‘The people here can’t wait. They can’t. They’ve waited so long. They’ve waited a long time for justice, this is something where they’re making such a modest request. I do feel a responsibility.

‘I’m not here to occupy the space, I’m here to change the country. There’s nowhere more important in changing the country than in changing the constitution to recognise the fullness of our history.

‘I want this for all Australians. We’ll feel better about ourselves if we get this done. The truth is, Australia will be seen as a better nation in the rest of the world. Our position in the world matters.’

A survey shows slightly more than half of Australians back the Voice, but the percentage of people who intend to vote ‘yes’ has dropped from 58 per cent to 53 per cent over the past month. 

The polling, by Resolve Strategic for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age newspapers, reveals the ‘no’ campaign is on track to win if the trend continues.
