Lamar Odom Claims Ex-Wife Khloé Kardashian is the 'Best Mother Ever'
By Ryan Carroll
Lamar Odom has been in the spotlight following the release of his new memoir, Darkness to Light, in which he discusses his difficult period of drug abuse and addiction--and its effect on his seven-year-long marriage to Khloé Kardashian. When asked recently about his thoughts on Kardashian’s new status as a mother, however, Odom said he was sure that was the the “best mother ever.”
According to Us Weekly, Odom expressed that he was confident that Kardashian was a good mother to her one-year-old daughter, True. “There’s no doubt in my mind that she’s the best mother ever because she took care of a 29-year-old man like he was a baby. I had every candy, cookie, juice, champagne, ice cream,” he said. “I didn’t need anything and that’s just on the small scale. She made this room for me in our home.”
He also added that Kardashian was “an incredible homemaker, but all women in that family are.”
Odom and Kardashian experienced trouble conceiving during their marriage, but, as Kardashian herself said in an episode of Kocktails with Khloé in 2016, it was likely better that it didn’t happen. “I thought it would maybe fix the situation [with Odom], so I’m also happy it didn’t happen because I was young,” she said. “I was 27, and I thought, ‘A baby will fix this,’ and it’s not going to fix that.”
Recently, Odom has been candid about the difficulties in his marriage to Kardashian, explaining in his memoir that she was worried about him but that he responded with anger and threats of violence. In the meantime, however, it appears that Odom has turned around much of his past struggles.
Regardless, we’re happy to see that there’s no love lost between Odom and Kardashian--it’s always nice to see a relationship ultimately work out, even if it's not romantic in the end. And something tells us that with the number of well-cared-for babies in the Kardashian-Jenner family, True is enjoying the life of luxury.
