Lamar Odom reportedly helping Rob Kardashian deal with depression

Rob Kardashian and Lamar Odom

Fans of the Kardashian family have had reason to be concerned about Rob Kardashian ever since he posted a cryptic tweet earlier this week, saying that, “no one will ever understand how much it hurts.” And although Rob has a gang of family members on which to lean during his times of need, reports claim that Rob has found solace in his sister Khloe Kardashian’s estranged husband, Lamar Odom.


Sources close to the Kardashian family say that Rob “hasn’t been happy lately,” largely because of his persistent weight gain, and that he “still doesn’t like the way he looks.”


According to RadarOnline, sources also say that Rob “has completely retreated from the family, and from his friends. But within the last few weeks, Rob has reconnected with Lamar.”

Rob and Odom’s friendly reunion comes to a shock to many insiders who claim that Rob was deeply hurt when Khloe filed for divorce from Odom.


“It was extremely hard for Rob when Lamar and Khloe split,” the source said, “because first and foremost, he hated what it did to Khloé. The split also essentially had ended Rob and Lamar’s relationship … they called each other brother, and meant it. There was a lot of love there.”

However, the source says that Odom only reconnected with Rob after getting approval from Khloe, whom he claims he still speaks to on a regular basis.

“Lamar asked her if it was OK if he reached out to Rob, and of course, she said yes,” the source reveals. “No matter what happens with them in the future as a couple, Khloé wants her brother and Lamar to maintain their friendship.”

As for the cause of Rob’s depression, the source claims that Rob “is upset about his changing shape and truly feels like the black sheep of the family.”

And though it’s clear that his famous sisters love him, the source claims that Rob doesn’t feel like he can reach out to his big sister, Kim.

“The reality of their situation is that Kim and Rob haven’t been that close in years,” the source said. “Deep down, she thinks he is a total slacker and it’s very hurtful to Rob.”

The source also claims that Odom is having a hard time getting through to Rob as well.

“[Odom offered to] fly Rob to New York City so they can hang out,” the source claims, but, “Rob just isn’t receptive to that. It has come to the point that he just hates going out because of the constant cameras always around. Lamar is planning to come to L.A. in the next month, and they will definitely hang out then.”

“If there is anyone that can help Rob it’s Lamar,” the insider added.

Well, hopefully, Rob finds a way to properly deal with his issues and the family becomes stronger after this. – nicholas robinson
