Khloé Kardashian says former NBA star Lamar Odom is doing well in his recovery from an apparent drug overdose last year in a Nevada brothel.
In a public appearance touting her upcoming talk show on Wednesday, Kardashian gave few details about Odom’s condition, saying it was his story to tell. Kardashian had filed for divorce from Odom, but she halted those proceedings after he was found unconscious last October, from an apparent overdose of cocaine and other drugs.
“He’s doing amazing, and I’m so proud of the strength that he has had to fight that battle,” said Kardashian, part of the reality TV juggernaut that includes “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and, at one time, “Khloé and Lamar.”
A source told People on Wednesday that Odom, 36, would be moving from LA’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to a live-in rehab facility.
“The plan is for him to move in the next few days,” the insider said. “At the center, Lamar will continue to receive amazing therapy. He still has many challenges but is making progress. He is a fighter.”
Three months after being found unconscious in Sin City, Odom still cannot walk on his own.
The little-known FYI channel is premiering “Kocktails With Khloé” on Jan. 20. The show, filmed in a replica of Kardashian’s house, will feature celebrity guests and approximate dinner parties she throws at her home.
