Khloe Kardashian Seen On Date With Rick Fox, Could Send A Message To Lamar Odom

Khloe Kardashian was seen on a date with Rick Fox, leading to rumors that the reality television star may be trying to send a message to ex Lamar Odom by dating a former on-court rival.

Fox, a former Los Angeles Lakers player, was spotted having dinner with Khloe this week at a Sherman Oaks restaurant. The couple reportedly stayed that the popular Mexican restaurant until 1:30 a.m.

So far, Khloe and Rick Fox haven’t said much about their date, though Fox did tell a photographer that the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star is just “a good friend.”

The date has led to speculation that Khloe is trying to send a message to Lamar Odom. The two have a somewhat sticky relationship history. After their very public split in 2013, there have been rumors that Lamar was trying to win Khloe back, and new reports suggest that Khloe may not be over him.

Khloe recently took to social media to share a quote that seemed to hint at her desire to get back with Lamar.

“I thought I was moving on. Until one day someone asked me ‘If you had one wish, what would it be?’And the first thing I thought of was to waste that wish on you.”

Past reports claimed that Khloe Kardashian was trying to make Lamar prove that he can stay on track after the substance abuse and cheating rumors.

Lamar appears to be making progress. He reportedly sent Khloe a gift on Mothers’ Day, even though Khloe has no kids of her own.

“Lamar wouldn’t ever forget about Khloe on Mother’s Day. Yes, she’s not a mother yet, but Lamar wanted her to know that when that day comes, she will be the absolute best mother in the entire world.”

The efforts may be working. A source told TMZ that the couple has been secretly hooking up at a hotel in California.

“They’ve spent many nights together in the past couple of months. Lamar is so sorry for everything and is begging Khloe to take him back. He’s been sober for six months and is determined to prove that he’s a changed man.”

For Khloe Kardashian and Rick Fox, the date may not have been anything more. The former NBA player has been linked to actress AnnaLynne McCord, and the two were spotted together a few months ago. Khloe seems to be enjoying the single life as well, meeting up with former flame French Montana and hanging out at Las Vegas nightclubs.
