Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom’s relationship may have been extremely fraught at times.
And, while the husband and wife may still be separated, they did recently consider giving their marriage another go.
In scenes from their reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, they can be seen discussing getting their romance back on track.
Former basketball player Lamar fell into a coma and was hospitalised last year after an apparent overdose following an alleged drink and drugs overdose at a legal Nevada brothel.
Wife Khloe had already filed for divorce from Lamar amid accusations he’d cheated but put the proceedings on hold as she tried to support him through his recovery after his illness.
In the episode, speaking of her fears for Lamar, Khloe says: “God is good but I really want him to be a little more afraid. You’re very rare.
“Like, bad things can happen if you go back to that life. This is a second chance.”
As Khloe and Lamar are travelling back to their home city of Los Angeles after watching a basketball game in New York, Caitlyn Jenner asks Lamar how he feels.
He responds: “Good, thanks to this lovely young lady.”
Caitlyn says: “She certainly was there for you.”
They then change the subject to talk about Kris Jenner’s friend Melanie Griffith who married Don Johnson twice, with Caitlyn saying the same could happen to Khloe and Lamar.
When Kourtney asks why they remarried, Kris replies: “Because they got a divorce and then decided they shouldn’t be divorced.”
Lamar says he will “say my prayers” in the hope of a reconciliation between him and Khloe, she is not so sure.
She says: “But we’re definitely getting out of this marriage because it’s been a little tainted. We need to cut ties and then we can figure it back out.”
Since the episode was filmed, Khloe has posted a number of telling tweets, which suggested she still feels emotionally attached to Lamar.
After Lamar was recently pictured out drinking, she shared a note with her Twitter followers, which read: “Letting go doesn’t mean that you don’t care about someone anymore. It’s just realising that the only person you really have control over is yourself.
“Letting go with love takes great strength. We have to learn to stop taking on people’s problems as if they are our own. Loving people does not mean we have to carry their burdens and confusions on our back.
“Sadly, you can only express your opinion on the situation. You can’t want their life more than they do. This is in fact their life to figure out on their own and in their own time.”
