Ball’s back in your court, Syd.
Tristan Thompson’s lawyer, Marty Singer, sent a letter to Thompson’s alleged fling, Sydney Chase, in response to her claims this week that she “won’t be called a liar” in the ongoing scandal.
“You have stated to the media that ‘I will not be called a liar,'” Singer’s statement, obtained by Page Six, begins. “You claim that your statements about supposedly receiving texts from my client are true. You also were reading and quoting from those fictitious texts. You claim that those texts you allegedly received prove you had an affair with my client.
“However, notwithstanding continued requests from me and from the press to provide the texts to back up your specious accusations, you have refused to do so. On three separate occasions including my email today, we have asked you to give us copies of the texts you claim you received from my client, but you have refused.”
Singer’s missive continues, “Articles published by multiple media outlets state that they also asked you for copies of the purported texts to prove their existence. While you claim that your statements about the texts are not false, you persistently refuse to provide evidence that they exist and allegedly support your claims … The inescapable conclusion is that they do not exist.” (All italics are Singer’s.)
Singer also claims that Chase’s public statements are contra the actual timeline of his involvement in the case.
“Before I sent my first legal demand, you told the media that you could not show them the alleged texts from my client because you falsely stated that you were dealing with Mr. Thompson’s lawyer — something that had not yet occurred. Then, after I sent you my legal demand on April 30, you made the inconsistent (and false) claim that you had not received my legal demand letter. You admitted that you received my letter at your valid email address only after being confronted with proof.”
“So that it is clear, before I communicated with you, you falsely claimed you were supposedly dealing with Mr. Thompson’s lawyer and therefore could not show the texts. Then you claimed that you had not received my April 30 demand letter by email despite later acknowledging that the email address we used is yours — an address that includes your birth year, is identified as yours via LexisNexis, and an address that from which my emails did not bounce back.” (Page Six has omitted Chase’s email address from Singer’s statement.)
“You keep changing the purported ‘facts’ to fit your story,” the statement winds down. “We again demand that you stop defaming Mr. Thompson with defamatory falsehoods. If you persist in this wrongful conduct, you will continue to be exposed to significant liability.”
Instagram model Chase finally confirmed she received Thompson’s cease-and-desist letter earlier this week, though she ended that particular statement by saying, “I’m moving forward with the truth & am choosing not to comply. I will not be called a liar.”
Pressed by Page Six about if she indeed had the purported evidence of the alleged affair with Thompson, Chase said, “Yes, I obviously do but this is now a legal matter that lawyers will handle.”
Chase and the “No Jumper” podcast on which Chase claimed she slept with the Boston Celtics player — while he was back together with Khloé Kardashian — both received the original cease-and-desist. The podcast has since removed the segment.
Chase has also claimed that both Thompson and Kardashian have messaged her privately since her bombshell interview.
Either way, she’s making the most of her time in the spotlight. Page Six also reported this week that she’s set to “host” an evening at the Las Vegas Hustler Club on Friday, has set up a pay-to-view OnlyFans account and is even shopping a reality show.
