Lamar Odom’s father has reportedly been kicked out of his house after his basketball player son’s estranged wife Khloe Kardashian refused to pay his rent.
Jo Odom told the New York Post’s Page Six that Keeping Up With The Kardashians star Khloe didn’t “have the guts” to tell him herself before he was asked to leave.
He said: “She got the guys who handle Lamar’s money to call me and they said the rent wouldn’t be paid, I gotta move and my phone was going to get cut off.”
Lamar’s dad and his wife Cecelia previously lived in Los Angeles but they moved back to Brooklyn after Khloe stopped paying for their house in California.
Reality star Lamar apparently paid $4,000 a month for his father’s rent over a period of 10 years but Khloe has now stopped the financial support.
The sportsman was found unconscious in a legal Nevada brothel last year after an alleged drink and drugs binge.
He was separated from Khloe at the time, who had started divorce proceedings, but, after he fell ill, she put a hold on things so she could care for him as he recovered.
But Joe says Khloe “disrespected” him and kicked him out of his home while Lamar was in hospital in Nevada.
He said he wanted to be in Los Angeles so he could easily travel and be by his son’s side but claims Khloe didn’t want him there.
Joe said: “Whenever I call him, she answers. She must be checking his texts, too. I can’t always get through to him anymore.”
Khloe and Lamar first split in 2013 amid rumours he’d cheated and she filed for divorce in December that year.
After the split, Khloe dated rapper French Montana but they split in 2014.
While proceedings were put on hold as Lamar recovered following his collapse, Khloe is said to now be planning to go ahead with the divorce.
