Khloe Kardashian has enough to deal with at the moment without being trashed by a man who makes a living as a brothel owner.
As the world tragically knows by now, Lamar Odom is lying in a Las Vegas hospital bed, possibly showing signs for life yet still in a very bad shape after collapsing on Tuesday afternoon.
The former NBA star had spent multiple days partying at The Love Ranch, a brothel in Nevada owned by Dennis Hof, before falling unconscious as a result of a likely overdose.
We know Odom had taken cocaine over the weekend and we know he had also taken a great deal of Reload, an herbal sexual stimulant with harmful side effects.
Hof, meanwhile, responded to the scary incident by appearing on Nancy Grace… by claiming did not take drugs on his premises… and by trashing the Kardashians.
Watch his interview below to see how Hof replied to a family publicist who asked him to remain quiet so that Khloe could control the message during this horrific time.
Now, representatives for Khloe have reiterated to the press the message they passed along to Hof.
“We reached out to Dennis yesterday politely asking him to respect Lamar’s (and Khloe’s) privacy during this difficult time and refrain from talking to the press,” reads the statement.
“This is a very painful situation, as I know you are aware, and the idea that anyone would use it to seek publicity is really sad.”
Hof has not yet heeded this advice, however, insisting to People Magazine that Odom was “having a good time” and was “happy and healthy” during his stay at the Love Ranch, which set Lamar back $ 75,000.
Upon discovered her estranged husband had been hospitalized on Tuesday, Khloe immediately rushed to Nevada and has been making all medical decisions because the stars are still legally married, despite having signed divorce papers in July.
We continue to send our thoughts and prayers to Lamar Odom, Khloe and their loved ones.
