This week’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians was filled with moments ripped from the family’s own tabloid fodder headlines. A little of the roller-coaster drama that has been Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom’s life over the past few months found its way to prime time TV.
On Sunday’s episode, Khloe got a disturbing call about Lamar while on a road trip with her family. The caller told her Odom wasn’t home and wasn’t answering his phone.
Khloe spoke to E’s cameras “I’ve been down this road probably way more times than I’d like to admit. If someone wants to leave, they want to leave.” She then addressed Lamar directly through TV by saying, “You’re not my child, and I can’t lock you in a room — as much as I would like you to.”
During the camping trip segment Khloe also hinted at Odom’s personal problems. “Lamar has been having a really hard time lately. It’s not just black and white,” she said. “There’s a lot of emotional issues and as much as I’m trying to enjoy going camping with my family, I also have to cater to Lamar’s needs.”
And finally she hinted at why she has stayed in the marriage, despite Odom’s widely publicized troubles. Khloe added, “It’s really scary when nothing’s really working, and then you know if you give up, no one in his life would be able to help,”
