Tristan Thompson dropped off his 5-year-old son, Prince, on the little one’s first day of school Tuesday.

The professional basketball player, 31, posted a smiling snap with his eldest child via Instagram to mark the milestone moment.

“My young King’s first day 👑✏️📚,” he wrote.

The athlete wore a black Supreme tee, matching sweats and colorful Nikes in the social media upload.

Prince, for his part, grinned in a Moschino shirt and green shorts with a purple backpack at his feet.

Thompson shares Prince with his ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig and is also the father of daughter True, 4, and son Theo, 8 months, with exes Khloé Kardashian and Maralee Nichols, respectively.

Last month, the NBA player welcomed baby No. 4, a son born via surrogate with the “Kardashians” star. The on-again, off-again couple has yet to reveal their infant’s name.

Kardashian kept their surrogacy journey under wraps amid her split from Thompson, with her rep confirming the news of their expanding family in July.

True will have a sibling who was conceived in November,” the statement read at the time. “Khloé is incredibly grateful to the extraordinary surrogate for such a beautiful blessing.”

The reality star spoke about her baby boy for the first time last week.

“Being able to shape little people into really incredible big people is an honor and a gift,” the Hulu personality told Elle in an interview. “I know it’s cliché, but I love everything, even the hard parts [of parenting].

“It’s super scary, but I take my job very seriously,” she continued.

Kardashian and Thompson began dating in 2016 before he cheated on the “Celebrity Apprentice” alum two years later while she was pregnant with True.

Although they stayed together, the duo split the following year when Thompson made headlines for kissing Jordyn Woods, Kylie Jenner’s best friend at the time.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, however, the pair reconciled, broke up and reconciled again. They ultimately called it quits in December 2021 when news broke of Nichols’ pregnancy.

Since welcoming his fourth child, Thompson wrote via Instagram that he has become “wiser.”

“I never switched sides, I switched lanes. I got wiser and realize we aren’t all built the same 🗣🗣👀 #DontTryMe,” he captioned the cryptic post last month.
