Khloé Kardashian has criticized her former husband Lamar Odom over comments in his Netflix documentary.
LOS ANGELES, November 13, 2026 — Khloé Kardashian has publicly expressed her anger toward former husband Lamar Odom, declaring that he is “dead to me” after watching his Netflix documentary, Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom. The reality television star criticized comments about their marriage and her involvement in his recovery following his near-fatal 2015 overdose during the November 12 episode of Hulu’s The Kardashians.
The dispute has renewed attention on the former couple’s complicated relationship, particularly the difference between Odom’s account of their marriage and Kardashian’s recollection of the support she provided during one of the most difficult periods of his life.
Key Points
Khloé Kardashian called Lamar Odom’s documentary comments distasteful.
She objected to his suggestion that their marriage was connected to fame and the Kardashian family’s lifestyle.
Kardashian said she participated in the documentary as a favour and was unhappy with how the story was presented.
She also criticized what she viewed as an attempt to minimize her role in Odom’s recovery.
Odom previously disputed the suggestion that he married Kardashian for publicity.
Why Khloé Kardashian Is Upset With Lamar Odom
Kardashian explained that she agreed to participate in Odom’s documentary because she wanted to help tell part of his story. However, she felt uncomfortable after hearing his comments about their relationship.
According to her account, Odom suggested that marrying into the Kardashian family offered him greater visibility and access to a high-profile lifestyle. Kardashian said those remarks made her question why she had agreed to participate in the project.
She also objected to what she considered an attempt to discredit her contribution during his recovery after his 2015 overdose.
“I don’t need you to thank me, just don’t talk about me,” Kardashian said during the episode, according to E! News.
Her frustration eventually led to her strongest statement: she said there was no remaining possibility of repairing their relationship.
What Lamar Odom Has Said About Their Marriage
The disagreement is not simply about a failed marriage. It also concerns two different accounts of what the relationship meant to each person.
Odom discussed his marriage to Kardashian in Netflix’s Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom. The documentary explored his basketball career, personal struggles, relationship with Kardashian and recovery following his 2015 medical emergency.
However, Odom has previously pushed back against the suggestion that he married Kardashian solely for publicity. E! News also reported that Odom attributed the specific allegation about marrying for fame to comments made by one of his children, while acknowledging that he had admired the Kardashian family’s lifestyle.
That distinction matters: Kardashian is responding to how she understood his documentary comments, while Odom has offered a different explanation of his intentions.
A Complicated Relationship That Ended in Divorce
Khloé Kardashian and Lamar Odom married in September 2009, approximately one month after meeting. Their relationship became a prominent storyline on Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
Kardashian filed for divorce in 2013. However, she put the proceedings on hold after Odom suffered a near-fatal overdose in October 2015 and supported him during his recovery.
The divorce was eventually finalized in December 2016.
Their latest disagreement demonstrates that, despite the years that have passed since their separation, their different perspectives on the marriage and its aftermath remain a source of tension.
The bigger story: The controversy is not just about Kardashian’s harsh words. It highlights the difficulty of revisiting a deeply personal relationship through a documentary when the people involved disagree about how their shared history should be remembered.
