Tristan Thompson Is Now Living The 'American Dream'
Tristan Thompson is officially a citizen of the United States.
The basketball player and baby daddy to Khloé Kardashian was born in Canada and was just sworn in as a U.S. citizen before Thanksgiving Day.
The USCIS Media- Western Regions Twitter account posted the 29-year-old getting sworn in with his right hand in the air, right next to an American flag.
“I came to the US on a student visa and have always had big dreams. I’m now truly living the American dream.” Congrats on reaching your goals @RealTristan13! Best of luck with the @NBA #Celtics as a #NewUSCitizen! pic.twitter.com/kr9drxTco7

Others were confused about how he received his citizenship so fast and wondered if it was because he’s a celebrity.
How about legal High skilled Indian immigrants waiting for GC over a decade and still no light end of the tunnel. @BarackObama ignored and @POTUS @realDonaldTrump promised for legal high skilled immigrants but neither provided any solution to it.

How did he skip the green card process?

This exciting ceremony also just came days after his signing deal with the Boston Celtics. He signed a two-year, $19 million deal, according to E!.
While Khloe doesn’t plan on joining him at his new home in Boston, she does explain that she’s supportive of his career choices. It seems like the rest of the Kardashian family is as well, as Kim and Rob Kardashian congratulated Tristan on their social media stories.
Tristan hasn’t posted anything on Instagram or Twitter stating this good news of citizenship, nor has Khloé.
