Star: Lamar Odom is consulting a lawyer, wants to divorce Khloe Kardashian

The Kardashians have been in Miami for about a month filming one of their reality show seasons. Don’t ask – I don’t know the specifics. All I know is that Khloe, Kim and Kourtney have been in Miami, and the Miami paparazzi have been having a field day getting candid shots of them around town. Khloe has been seen frequently – but there are no photos of Lamar Odom, her husband of three years. Since I don’t know anything about sports, I assumed that Lamar was and is in LA, doing something something basketball something LA Clippers, maybe? But according to the ‘bloids, Khloe and Lamar are in ruins. Star Mag claims that Lamar is pissed about Khloe’s new gig hosting The X Factor, and he’s already consulted a divorce lawyer:

Lamar Odom reportedly met with a divorce attorney because he wants to end his three-year-marriage to Khloe Kardashian.

The source claims that Lamar met with a divorce lawyer: “He wants to be sure he’s protected because he knows the Kardashians will try to fight for a chunk of his fortune. He’d rather just serve her with papers and be done. As opposed to telling her the truth and having her freak out.”

Lamar is reportedly tired of Khloe always filming her fertility struggles on the show too.

“Lamar would love to have more kids,” the source says. “He’s just not sure he wants them with Khloe.”

A source claims Lamar yelled “you can’t give me kids — I’m out!” at Khloe before “storming out” of their house and heading to Vegas.

If they did get divorced, he’s worth a reported $56 million and she has netted $11 million in the past year, so that’s where the $67 million figure comes from.

For whatever it’s worth, I do think Khloe and Lamar really love each other, and while Khloe’s professional famewhoring career isn’t Lamar’s cup of tea, I’m guessing that he plays along because he knows he’s not going to be a professional athlete for much longer. “Reality stardom” is his backup plan, his second career. Hollywood Life also spoke to one of Khloe’s friends about the Star story, and this friend refutes it:

“It’s so not true what they’re saying,” Khloe’s close friend EXCLUSIVELY tells HollywoodLife.com about Star magazine’s cover story claiming the two are on the brink of divorce. “It’s completely bogus! She seriously couldn’t be happier. She and Lamar are totally fine.”

Our source goes on to reveal that “Khloe never reads those magazines and this new cover story is completely bogus. They live together happily. Despite what people may think, Lamar and Khlo live private lives. They do reality shows and things like that but once the cameras are off, they’re very private. They really don’t have many people, other than their families, in their lives. They are fine and are 100-percent not divorcing.”

“Look, she gets it. People are going to write whatever they want to about them and that’s fine,” a source reveals. “But she’s so content and so happy with her life and her marriage. She puts her life on reality TV and is honest with who she is but some people will try to judge you her at every turn. It’s not right, but she gets it.”

Blah. So it’s not true. Right now. What’s going on with Khloe’s fertility though? My mom (who watches the shows without apologies) says that Khloe hasn’t been ovulating, and that’s why she wasn’t having any luck? So, is she going to be doing something about that? Or do we have to wait until next season to find out?

    I don’t know how the hell I got emotionally invested in a Kardashian, but reading that headline made me gasp and then made me really sad. I hope it’s not true.

    • BB says:

      I’m amazed at how naive people are to believe things tabloids print. Lamar has been in training camp and Khloe has been in Miami shooting the reality show with her sisters. Khloe and Lamar are not divorcing. The tabloid story is full of “sources”, “might” fake story all together.

  2. Launicaangelina says:

    I don’t watch any of their shows and all I know about any of them is through gossip blogs. But I will say this, I hope these two make it work. They seem genuine and I hope they get the baby they want.

  3. Nev says:

    Hope it’s not true!!!!! Why would he leave because she is working? Doesn’t make sense.

  4. some bitch says:

    These people confuse me to no end.

    Khloe looks beautiful in the second photo.

  5. sadie says:

    After watching RHONJ this season I learned that magazines set-up multiple magazine deals with reality stars and force them to generate content. I’m sure this is a pimp mama Kris plant to get everyone talking

  7. NerdMomma says:

    I would be really sad if these two split up, and I don’t watch any of their shows. She looks really cute in jeans in that bottom picture! She should dress down more.

  8. mel2 says:

    The reason why Lamar isnt seen with Khloe is because the NBA season has begun and he’s traveling and Kloe is in Miami shooting so this justifies no photos 2gether. I think this rumor started because of her struggles with getting preggars.

    • hoya_chick says:

      Sorta, technically it’s preseason, the actual season doesn’t start until 10/30. Some preseason games take place abroad, I think the Clippers were in China at some point. I don’t know if I believe this story. They seem solid, but never say never. It’s not like they are going to be married forever, but I don’t see them splitting up just yet.

      • The Original Tiffany says:

        They were there playing the heat last week. They are 5 games into pre-season. Lamar is playing, she is filming.

        These guys are busy learning to play with new rosters. Totally made up story.

  9. Cathy says:

    I don’t believe this one bit. Star isn’t the most reliable magazine around. If they are having some problems, I would say that’s normal in any marriage. I don’t care for the Kuntrashians, but I do like Khloe. She seems to be the only real one of the bunch.

  10. Tifygodess24 says:

    I feel total yuck for saying this lol but Khloe posted a pic of her and lamar on her instagram last night. Although I was wondering why she had “10,000” pics about oh clippers game , oh Lamar etc. maybe this article is why.

  11. Victoria says:

    Another pr stunt. Fake people, fake drama. Everything for sale.

    • Macey says:

      You got it!!!

      Everything with this family is fake, staged and scripted. They have to create stories like this or they wouldnt get press. I think the whole fertility thing is a story line as well.

    • deehunny says:

      A witness hears, “you can’t give me kids, I’m out!” So fake. While I know people aren’t above saying hurtful things to each other, it just sounds so doctored.

      That may be because I hope it’s not true

  12. Murphy says:

    Why would Lamar be pissed about Khloe making money?

  13. Hakura says:

    I really feel for Khloe. (& I can’t STAND the Kardashians).

    She’s had to shoulder so much bullsh*t over the years, so I really think she deserves real happiness. I hope this story isn’t true, & that they eventually have the child they so desperately want.

  15. N-Bear says:

    Not ovulating is not the end of the world when it comes to fertility. It’s the most common fertility problem with women who carry extra weight (look up polycystic ovarian syndrome – though I don’t know if that’s what she has). There’s a number of things that can be done about it if you’re willing to take some drugs and/or shots.

    • amurph says:

      Um, PCOS isn’t a fertility problem for women with extra weight. Yes, it causes fertility problems, usually as a result of ovarian cysts and whacked out hormones, but it can affect any woman, no matter her weight. PCOS typically affects the body’s metabolism, so weight gain is common but not a rule. Yes, not ovulating is usually one of the first signs of fertility troubles, usually though it’s a result of something going on in the body and is reversible (irregular FSH, screwed up thyroid, too low/too high body weight, cysts, PCOS, etc.). Sometimes, it’s not – even with drugs and shots, which can even not work with women who have PCOS (sometimes it works great, for others it’s a huge trial and can take many many years, also ups more health risks). I apologize if that wasn’t what you meant but I felt it needed to be clarified about PCOS.

      I think Khloe was diagnosed with (or told she had) a hormone imbalance, maybe her FSH levels were off.

  16. lw says:

    I don’t think Lamar is going anywhere. He’s as big of a fame whore as the rest of them. He fully knows that he would otherwise fade into obscurity after his playing days are over (soon).
    And I like that Khloe is seeking out these types of jobs, which she seems well suited for. If she really is infertile, she has all the time in the world to get a surrogate or adopt. She’s not even 30 yet. Plus I bet it destroys Kim that Khloe can get jobs based on her personality since Kim has NONE.

    • Lady D says:

      Agreed. Kim is probably furious that Khloe got the TV gig. I’m sure Kim will show every week, and expect front row seats for the cameras of course.

  17. dorothy says:

    She needs to get away from her controlling mom and narcissistic sister. Being around them and subjecting your husband to that atmosphere is not good for anyone.

  18. Rux says:

    I watch the show with my mom because she loves the Kardashians and after several years of doing this with her, I can honestly say I dislike them all except Khloe, Lamar and Bruce.

    They are not that great of “actors” to play out this “in love with one another”. I believe they truly both love each other.

  19. mln76 says:

    She’s the only likeable one. I don’t think its true but Mama Kris most probably is the source.

  20. tru tru says:

    We shall seeeeeeeeee won’t we.

  21. LucyOriginal says:

    I really like Khloe. Yes, I do watch it when I am at the gym, :/. Anyway, i watched the episode about her fertility issues and last thing she said, she had to take something(hormones?!) as part of her treatment. Something like that…

  22. Susie Q says:

    Story is undoubtedly planted by pimp mama Kris, her youngest kash kow has been too quiet lately and they have to publicize her new gig on X factor.

  23. Birdie says:

    Not true! I have seen pics today where she was at the basketball court with her sisers and mom to support Lamar playing for the Clippers.

  24. lucy2 says:

    Private? Bwahaha. No one in that family keeps ANYTHING private.

    I wouldn’t blame him if he wanted to get away from that family, but I doubt this story is true.

  25. Sara says:

    Lamar gets on my nerves. I saw an episode where he literally doused himself in cologne all over his face and head, like ten spritzes on face/head. Someone should tell him how toxic that shit is and to spray right on your face is really really stupid. He strikes me as really dumb.

  26. Emma says:

    This is totally pimp mama Kris generating a story to keep her pathetic family’s name in the tabloids. Kim barely gets tabloid covers now, except for the possible pregnancy rumors because that’s all she has now. The only stories they have is how Scott is the worst father and partner and Kourtney is so alone…blah blah. And now this. They’ve run out of ideas. What’s horrible is that that woman will make her own children look bad for more press. I would disown her if she were my mother.

  27. G says:

    I know that their shows are highly edited, but the Lamar I’ve seen seems saavy to his reality TV deal, relaxed and assuring to Khloe about her fertility. And really, their pre-nup was negotiated loooooooong ago.

    BS story.

  28. thatgirl says:

    I don’t buy it for a minute. While I’m not a huge Kardashian fan, if I had to pick Khloe is my fav hands-down and I love all the scenes with her and Lamar because they seem so genuine, unlike anything else on the show.

  29. aurelia says:

    I wasn’t ovulating either. It wasn’t polycystic syndrome. Was my endochrine system that controls hormone production. I had menopausal levels of oestrogen and progesterone. I didn’t know any of this until trying for baby number 2 failed.

    I was lucky at 35 and conceived baby number 1 straight way – 2nd month of trying. Kind of amazing considering my affliction. Had secondary infertility when trying for baby number 2. Baby number 1 came 7 weeks early because my progesterone levels finally dried up. Not enough to sustain the pregnancy right through. I just knew he wouldn’t go full term.

    Got onto the fertility drug clomid for baby number 2. It forces you into ovulation no matter what. Got pregnant straight away on it. But because my slack specialist didn’t supply me with progesterone injections quick enough I miscarried. Not enought progesterone to sustain the pregnancy. I cried and my specialist just shrugged and said “there’s always next time”.

    There wasn’t a netx time. Husband decided our little boy was enough. Im 40 in Jan and I kinda agree. One kid is more than enough these days.

    I digress. Good luck to khloe and clomid. Hope it works out for them. Love K & L together. Hate the rest of that rancid klan.

    Peace out.

  30. Camille (TheOriginal) says:

    If she’s not ovulating it could be Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Medication can help with it. I have PCOS and thanks to medication (Metformin) I was able to have my child and it also helps with some of the other symptoms I have due to PCOS.

    I don’t care for any of the Lardassian klan, but if she does have PCOS I do feel for her because it is an absolute b*tch of a syndrome.

  31. Andrea says:

    If only It’d be about kourtney and she finally dumped scott!!! 🙂

  32. salamanca says:

    Sont’g give a minut. Thath’s wholee PR thing. I really belive in K&L love, hope for child. Wish You luck.

    The funny is is when was Khloe EVER in Miami for a month. She went one week to film and then back to LA to celebrate her 3rd anniversary with her husband. She went for a couple of days for a family shoot and then back to LA until Lamar left for China for the week. She tweeted she was packing him up. Lamar was still in Vegas for a preseason game with the Clippers. The pic of Lamar on the cover is from when the Clippers went there to play. That pic is from when the team was celebrating Grant Hill’s 40th Birthday. Of course, Star Magazine cut out Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and the rest of the team from that pic. Those pics from Grant Hill’s party were all over the internet.All star mag did was cut out everyone else. Besides, Lamar’s daughter Destiny sent Khloe and Lamar a tweet for their 3rd anniversary congratulating them and thanking Khloe for making her dad happy. I thought that was the sweetest. I even retweeted.

  34. Shymon says:

    Mama Ten Percent probably want us to believe Khloe and Lamar are divorcing a year after Kim and Kris’s divorce.
