Khloé Kardashian is done with Lamar Odom — for good.
On the latest episode of The Kardashians, which aired Thursday, November 12, the reality star declared her ex-husband “dead to me” after hearing what he said about her in his Netflix documentary, Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom.
“The bridge is burned, and there’s no more rope left to throw over,” Khloé said in a confessional. “So he is dead to me.”
Why Khloé Regrets Joining the Documentary
Khloé agreed to appear in the Netflix film as a favor to Lamar, and she did it without being paid. But when the documentary premiered seven months ago, she was hurt by some of the things her ex said about their marriage — including suggestions that he married her more for the fame and the lifestyle than out of real love.
“There’s so many things that I just found really distasteful,” she said, adding that she found it “really lame” that he made those claims after she had sat for interviews on his behalf.
Khloé believes Lamar started speaking out against her because he wasn’t expecting the response the documentary got. “Now he’s trying to sort of slander me a little bit, which frustrates me,” she said.
“Don’t Discredit Me”
During the episode, Scott Disick reminded viewers that Khloé was once “spoon-feeding” Lamar back to life. The former couple had already signed divorce papers in 2015 when Lamar suffered a near-fatal overdose in Nevada. Khloé halted the divorce and stayed by his side through his long recovery. Their divorce was finalized in 2016.
Khloé made it clear she isn’t looking for applause. “I don’t need you to thank me. Just don’t talk about me. Don’t discredit me,” she said, before adding: “Play with yourself, don’t play with me.”
Her frustration traces back to April, when Lamar promoted the documentary on Today. Asked about Khloé’s role in his recovery, he acknowledged that “she took care of me” — but said that God took care of him the most.
A Long, Complicated History
Khloé and Lamar married in 2009 after a whirlwind month-long romance, and their relationship played out on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and their own spinoff, Khloé & Lamar. They split in 2013 amid his struggles with addiction and reports of infidelity.
Khloé has since moved on and is mom to daughter True, 8, and son Tatum, 4, whom she shares with ex Tristan Thompson. She’s been open on her podcast Khloé in Wonder Land about dating again and even considering a third baby.
As for Lamar? “It’s OK,” Khloé said. “I just don’t want to be involved.”
New episodes of The Kardashians stream Thursdays on Hulu.
