Guardianship and Family Support
In February, Tristan Thompson became the legal guardian of Amari following the death of their mother, Andrea Thompson, from a heart attack in January 2023. Tristan first filed for temporary guardianship in September 2023, stating that their father, Trevor Thompson, had not been involved in raising Amari since 2014. This legal responsibility allows Tristan to manage Amari’s finances, including a $103,475 inheritance from their late mother, and make decisions regarding his living arrangements and travel.
Tristan’s role as Amari’s guardian underscores his commitment to his family and his dedication to providing a stable and supportive environment for his brother. The NBA champion’s guardianship ensures that Amari receives the care and resources he needs during this crucial time. This responsibility highlights Tristan’s deep love and unwavering support for his brother’s well-being.
