Lamar Odom Rehab Stay: Hoping To Reconcile With Khloe Kardashian Amid ‘KUWTK’ Divorce [Rumor]

Is Lamar Odom heading to rehab for the sake of getting his marriage with Khloe Kardashian back on track?

It’s been three years since the twosome went their separate ways, with Khloe infamously packing her belongings and leaving the home she shared with the former athlete after Odom’s affair and drug scandal surfaced all over the internet.

Khloe Kardashian was embarrassed and ashamed, to say the least, yet she still never turned her back on Lamar Odom — she knew he was troubled and needed help, and that’s exactly what she tried to provide him, even after they were no longer together.

After Lamar’s near-death experience last summer when he overdosed on a mixture of drugs, Khloe feared that the former Clippers players could potentially die if nobody steps in and takes action to send him to rehab, but Odom reportedly refused at the time.

His refusal is what ended up drifting Khloe away from him, Us Weekly revealed on June 15. The reality star was under the impression that Lamar Odom was hesitating because he wanted to return to his drug habit and had no intentions of living a sober life, prompting Kardashian to cut all ties with the the 37-year-old.

Now, however, Lamar Odom is ready to make the enormous step and check himself into rehab, well aware that he needs professional help if he ever wants to live a normal life again. Having been an addict for so many years, it’s only a matter of time before Lamar dies from his next overdose, and he’s fully aware of it now.

Part of him is also wanting to get himself into rehab to reportedly prove to Khloe that he’s a changed man, Hollywood Life adds.

According to the outlet, Lamar Odom is still very much attached to his estranged wife, despite the fact that the TV star is now said to have moved on to Cleveland Cavaliers basketball player Tristan Thompson.

The twosome have been dating for three months, and from how things have been going, it doesn’t seem as if they are splitting up anytime soon.

But Lamar Odom is supposedly convinced that if he’s able to live a clean lifestyle and check himself into rehab, where he’ll complete a lengthy program, Khloe Kardashian will see that Odom is trying his hardest for a positive change in his life.

“Lamar’s going for it all! By checking himself into rehab, he’s attempting to get his life together and he’s trying to show Khloe [Kardashian] that he’s serious about her and a possible future together,” the source explained.

“For years, Khloe has wanted him to check into rehab and with their divorce just days away from being finalized, he’s hoping that she sees his valiant efforts to take his life much more seriously and consider being his friend first, and who knows what else after.”

Hollywood Life continues by saying that Khloe’s romance with Tristan is allegedly breaking Lamar Odom’s heart. He hates seeing her with other men, but he knows that he caused this on himself, and now he has to prove to her that he really means it when he says he wants to live a sober life.

Whether or not Khloe will actually consider the idea of giving Lamar yet another chance has yet to be determined, but with the way things have been going, it seems more than unlikely that she’ll give up the relationship with Tristan for someone she has consistently been let down by.

What do you think? Should Khloe give Lamar Odom another chance after all the things she’s been through with him, or should she continue her relationship with Tristan Thompson instead?

Lamar Odom is expected to complete his rehab treatment program before the end of the month, just in time for the new year.
