Lamar Odom, who has recently completed rehab at Casa Palmera Treatment Center in January, is now opening up on his previous drug use and his failed marriage to Khloe Kardashian, who is now dating Cleveland Cavaliers center, Tristian Thompson.
Odom, who supposedly has a documentary in the works, sat down with US Weekly and revealed that while he was married to Khloe, there were multiple situations in which he cheated on her, and he regrets it deeply.
“B****** and Thots came out of the woodwork. If there is one thing I regret when I was married, it was having multiple affairs with different women. That wasn’t the stand-up thing to do. I wish I could have kept my d–k in my pants,” Odom said.
Odom also exclaimed on how just being dating a celebrity like Khloe made it easier for him to get women. People, even without knowing what his job was at the time, would approach him simply because they knew his wife.
“When I became Khloé Kardashian’s man and on TV, it made me look more enticing. People who didn’t even know basketball would approach me because they knew Lammy.”
On October of 2015, Odom was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel where he suffered multiple heart attacks and strokes. As a result of that, Odom spent four days in a coma.
“I was home by myself. Bored. I wanted to get out and have a good time,” Odom recalled of the fateful night. “Looking back, I might have had a drink to get the mood started, but was I drunk or on drugs? Not at all. I remember lying in bed. Two women were in bed and then I fell asleep. That’s all. When I woke up four days later, I was trying to pull the tubes out of my mouth.”
Multiple reports would later follow as a result, and the most common one was that Odom was a drug addict. He mentioned that he did keep it away from Khloe, but his frustration led to the reveal.
“I was hiding it for a while, but then I got frustrated and was like, f**k it,” Odom said of his drug use. “Around two years before we split up [in 2011], I was in the man cave [Khloe] had made for me and she caught me. She was disappointed. So was I. The sad thing about it is, I don’t know if I was disappointed because I was actually doing the drug or because she caught me. She knew I was doing cocaine the whole time after that. It was my drug of choice. I’m not going to say she accepted it because that would be the wrong word. Tolerated would be a better word.”
Odom has since been sober and looking to change his life for the better. Ever since the passing of his closest friend, Jamie Sangouthai, to drug use in 2015, Odom seems to have taken that as the moment for him to change for the better.
“Living sober, meaning no drugs, is a great feeling. Being in the moment is important — how you react, respond, create. If I would have done coke last night, you would have gotten some d**khead here trying to get out of here fast. But you’re getting Lamar now. “
