Khloe Kardashian has put the kibosh on her book tour.
The reality star made this announcement herself on Wednesday afternoon, Tweeting that she’s sick and under doctor’s orders to take it easy.
“I’ll be going for more testing today. I’m very sorry again,” Khloe wrote.
“Stress can run our bodies down so please everyone take care of yourselves.”
She’s right. Stress can definitely play a role in one’s health. She isn’t lying, either: According to multiple sources, Kardashian really is sick.
But there’s a bit more to the story.
TMZ reports that Kardashian contracted a staph infection as a result of being so often by Lamar Odom’s bedside at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
The former basketball star has been a patient there for over a month now, ever since he fell unconscious at a brothel in Las Vegas.
Khloe has essentially dropped everything to be there for her estranged husband.
However, Khloe’s memoir (“Strong Looks Better Naked”) came out on November 6 and she had agreed to go on a book tour as part of its promotion.
But TMZ says this is no longer possible because Khloe has a painful lesion on her leg. She has also developed a high fever and swollen glands.
“It’s so scary. She’s so sick,” a source tells the website.
However, a rep for the star tells Gossip Cop that things are not nearly this dire:
“She is getting treatment and will be OK,” says this spokesperson, adding that Khloe “just needs to rest and get it treated.”
Let’s hope this doesn’t have a negative effect on the round butt Khloe has worked so hard to get.
We kid. We really do hope she’s feeling better soon.
