Khloe Kardashian will do whatever it takes to save Lamar Odom and their marriage, even if it means going against the wishes of her mother, Kris Jenner.
Khloe loves her mom, but she could care less about her latest advice concerning her marriage struggles with Lamar, a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.
“That’s not Lamar’s concern, nor is it Khloe’s,” the source says. “All that matters is that he gets the help he needs and gets clean. Khloe’s not going anywhere. He’s in his marriage as best as he can be. They will work it out — the two of them can handle this!”
Khloe is determined to stand by her man, but Kris doesn’t think Lamar deserves her, a friend of the Kardashian family told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.
“Kris is desperate for Khloe to divorce Lamar,” the source revealed. “She thinks he is bad news and that Khloe can do much better.”
“Another reason Kris wants Khloe to dump Lamar is because he has absolutely nothing to offer her or the family,” the friend adds. “He isn’t officially signed with any team. He won’t go to rehab, and he is a bad influence on Rob [Kardashian]. Kris thinks that Lamar has tarnished the family name with philandering and drug use.”
We can totally understand why Kris doesn’t approve of Lamar’s behavior — she is just being protective of her beloved daughter. Still, it’s really up to Khloe to decide whether she should be with Lamar, and she could probably use her mom’s support now more than ever.
Despite her family’s disapproval, Khloe is convinced she can save Lamar from his alleged drug demons.
“Khloe doesn’t want to split with Lamar, and Rob doesn’t want them to get a divorce either,” the friend reveals.
At least there’s one member of the Kardashian family who is on Khloe and Lamar’s side. Khloe really needs her family’s support because she is just beside herself right now.
“Lamar is all that’s on her mind,” another source reveals. “His problems are taking a toll on her and he never wanted them to. She’s stressing out also but it’s just one of those things that they are currently going through and facing to save Lamar and the marriage.”
However, despite Khloe’s apparent devotion, moving trucks were spotted outside their house on Aug. 29. Though that doesn’t confirm anything, it does give the impression that Khloe and Lamar’s marriage might be beyond saving.
