Well, Obviously: Kris Jenner Is Still Bullying Khloe Kardashian Into Getting A Divorce
September 17, 2013 by Hollywoodite
Previously, it was reported that Kris Jenner surreptitiously arranged meetings with the family lawyer to discuss options for Khloe Kardashian’s potential divorce. After which, Kris passive-aggressively bullied Khloe into attending the same meetings because this is a family who bullies people “for their own good” assuming it all “works out in the end”. No matter how the person feels, and no matter how much it hurts them.
Reportedly, Khloe hasn’t yet filed for divorce and has no intention of doing so because she still loves Lamar Odom and hopes there’s some way to work it out if he gets help. For example, according to TMZ.com Khloe “freaked out” at the weekend’s erroneous reports that Lamar OD’d/ tried to kill himself with drug abuse. However, it’s also reported they haven’t spoken “in days,” and they’re not even really talking at this point. Which is more Lamar ignoring Khloe’s calls than anything. “They’re separated for the moment,” a source tells PEOPLE. “Khloé is spending many nights at her mom’s house and Lamar is at his place [in] downtown [L.A.].”
“Khloe always knew Lamar dabbled with drugs, but she didn’t get concerned until summer when he moved out of their house so he could do whatever he wanted to,” a friend told HollywoodLife. “He got sick of her nagging him to get help, so he moved out.”
“I believe Lamar is the one who wants out [of the marriage],” the source adds. “It’s not looking good. She’s severely disappointed in him for not taking his life seriously. He’s been fortunate to play in the NBA. Do you know how many guys dream of that? It’s a gift, Khloe told him, and it’s like he’s blowing it off and she’s pissed.”
However, another source says the estranged couple may spend their wedding anniversary together. “He knows how important and sentimental the anniversary is to Khloe,” a source says. “He does want to prove to her that he loves her and that he still gives a f**k about her and their marriage.”
Whatever the state of their marriage, though, according to Kris the damage is done because Lamar has 1) betrayed Khloe 2) damaged the family brand. So… yeah… Kris is never going to forgive either of those.
Even though she’s been crushed by new cheating claims, Khloe Kardashian is clinging onto what’s left her topsy-turvy marriage with Lamar Odom and is STILL refusing to pull the trigger on a divorce, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
That’s despite her closest confidante, momager Kris Jenner telling her love-struck 29-year-old daughter that the time is nigh to file court papers to end the pair’s four-year-marriage.
“At Kris’ insistence, Khloe did meet with a divorce lawyer…it was something she was forced into doing by her mom. Kris was very heavy handed and said Khloe had a responsibility to her sisters, Kim and Kourtney, and the Kardashian brand to distance herself from Lamar,” a source close to the situation told Radar.
“It’s all about the bottom line with Kris, and Khloe could care less about that. She is still holding out hope that her marriage to Lamar can be saved.”
What’s more, the insider tells Radar that Khloe refuses to let go of Odom because her self-esteem is completely wrapped up in her marriage to the former Los Angeles Clipper power forward.
“Khloe’s entire self-worth and identity is wrapped up in her marriage and relationship to Lamar. Remember, four years ago, before Khloe married Lamar, she was just sort of fledgling. Kourtney was on her way to having her first baby, and Kim was dating Reggie Bush. Khloe was living with Kourtney in a townhouse, and her life was just lumped into her sisters’,” the source revealed.
“So when she met and married Lamar, it was a huge change for her. It was a chance for Khloe to distance herself from the Kardashian name. All of a sudden, Khloe was getting tons of attention from the media, and she was very popular with Lamar’s teammates’ wives. She had this huge mansion, a wardrobe to die for, and the man of her dreams. It was everything her other two sister’s didn’t have.”
But even though Odom, 33, is caught in fast downward spiral — currently a free agent unsigned with any NBA team, reports of numerous affairs with multiple women and an alleged drug addiction of smoking crack cocaine and using OxyContin and Ambien — Khloe still envisions a perfect life with him.
“She can’t remember what her life what like before Lamar, and she doesn’t want to go back to that lonely life. Yes, she has a huge family, but she has always felt that she doesn’t fit in with the Kardashian-Jenner clan. Khloe is really low key, and all she has ever wanted was to be happily married and have a ton of kids. She thought she had that with Lamar, but obviously doesn’t,” the source concluded.
“Is it likely she will give that up anytime soon, or even the idea of it? No. She is still hoping Lamar goes to rehab and gets help, and she wants to give him the opportunity to make the marriage work.” – via RadarOnline.
