In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Khloe Kardashian opened up about a shocking incident that nearly ended the life of ex-NBA star Lamar Odom. According to Kardashian, Odom’s father, Joe Odom, allegedly planned to have his son killed to collect a large insurance payout after his 2015 overdose brouhaha.
In the episode, Kardashian provided details of the terrifying ordeal and it’s shocking how a father could have the heart to even think of ending his son’s life just to rake in some insurance payout. Imagine if Joe Odom had not passed away in 2021, this episode of The Kardashians would have given him a heart attack.
During an emotional conversation with Lamar, Khloé recounted a disturbing moment from his hospitalization: “I was there when your father said, ‘Pull the plug’ so he can be on your life insurance.” This statement sheds new light on the already strained relationship between Lamar and his father, who passed away in 2021.
Joe Odom had a history of struggles with heroin addiction, which caused significant tension between him and his son. Lamar has previously spoken about being primarily raised by his grandmother due to his father’s absence. Despite attempts at reconciliation, their relationship remained complicated, and Khloé’s revelation adds another troubling layer to their history.
Khloé detailed the immense support Lamar received from her family during his health crisis. She emphasized that her mother, Kris Jenner, and sister, Kim Kardashian, played crucial roles in helping him recover.
She also recalled the severity of Lamar’s condition, stating that he suffered “six heart attacks, 12 strokes,” and was in critical condition. Throughout his recovery, Khloé remained by his side for months, often sleeping at the hospital. Her devotion even led to her contracting a staph infection due to prolonged exposure in the medical facility.
Despite her unwavering commitment, Khloé admitted that she eventually had to prioritize her own mental health. She recounted a painful moment a year after Lamar’s overdose when he relapsed, leading to an explosive confrontation.
“I punched you in the face, and I shattered everything in that house,” she confessed, reflecting on her frustration and heartbreak. This marked a breaking point for Khloé, signaling that she could no longer endure the emotional toll their relationship had placed on her.
As for Lamar Odom, he has focused on rebuilding his life and recovering from the traumatic events he experienced. This incident serves as a reminder of never trusting anyone in this world, not even your family.
