Khloe Kardashian has shared some further insights into her past relationship with Lamar Odom in the latest episode of The Kardashians.
The Good American founder confronted her ex-husband over his past issues with substance abuse in what was understood to have been their first face-to-face meeting in nine years.
Khloe mentioned that she found out Lamar started doing drugs again in May 2016, and asked “why on earth” he would return to that life after his near-fatal overdose in 2015.
In 2016, Lamar (who Khloe broke up with two years prior) was living in her home during his recovery – where he suffered six heart attacks and and twelve strokes while in a coma.
“I was there through it all,” Khloe told him, and recalled how she had to change his diapers and helped him learn how to walk again.
The ex Los Angeles Lakers player revealed that he doesn’t know what he was “even thinking” when he broke his sobriety, and Khloe argued that he “had enough awareness to get a burner phone to call a drug dealer.”
Khloe also thought back on the time she punched him in the face and “shattered everything in that house.”
However, Lamar had no memory of this particular argument but noted, “I’m not dismissing that” and “that s*** shouldn’t have happened.”
In the confessional, Khloe expressed that she “tried countless times to save Lamar” before their divorce was eventually finalised in 2016.
“You can’t keep doing f**ked up s**t and expect people just to stay around… I could have that innocence of when I first met him and the love we had.
“What a beautiful thing to be so naive and trusting. I will get that back, but maybe that’s also OK.”
