Amari Thompson receives birthday dedication from Khloé Kardashian

Amari Thompson, the younger brother of NBA star Tristan Thompson and the ex-boyfriend of Khloé Kardashian, celebrated his 18th birthday on July 27th. Amari has epilepsy, requiring round-the-clock medical care. However, his disability doesn't exclude him from enjoying life and special events.

Amari's condition has been documented on The Kardashians, with Khloé and Tristan providing the teenager with medical expenses and a home. While Khloé and the Cleveland Cavaliers player are no longer a couple, they ensure that Amari and their children are well provided for. Earlier this year, Tristan gained full legal guardianship of his brother. Tristan's role is to ensure that Amari's needs are met and care for his financial matters.

How Khloé Kardashian dedicated Amari Thompson's birthday

In honor of Amari's eighteenth trip around the sun, Khloé shared a set of photos on Instagram. Amari is lovingly surrounded by family members inside the set, including Khloé's two children, True and Tatum Thompson, who celebrated his 2nd birthday on July 28th. There was even a memorable snap of Amari and his late mother, Andrea, before she passed away suddenly from a heart attack in 2023.

There's a sweet clip of Tatum kissing his uncle while he's fast asleep, and how adorable are they when they look at one another affectionately? The slides prove that there's a tremendous amount of love shining through the family.

For the caption, the Good American founder called the young man an "angel" who has improved her and her family's lives.

Kris Jenner posted a photo of the birthday man with Cici Bussey Kim Kardashian, who recently returned home from her India and Italy trips. She traveled with Khloé earlier this month.

Tristan, for his part, shared a carousel of his own for Amari's "big number 18." He included photos from the birthday party yesterday and some of Amari with True and Tatum. Amari is a beacon of light and a blessing in his life.

Amari has been diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, one of the more severe forms of epilepsy. In honor of his brother, Tristan and Andrea founded the Amari Thompson Fund, a nonprofit benefitting individuals with epilepsy in Greater Toronto.
