On Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 12 Episode 2, Lamar Odom met Caitlyn Jenner for the first time.
Over the weekend, however, Lamar Odom was spotted with an alcoholic drink in his hand.
Most definitely not for the first time.
The former basketball star’s battle with substance abuse has been well-documented at this point.
Back in October, Odom fell unconscious at a Nevada brothel, with authorities confirming he had various drugs in his system and had been drinking all weekend.
According to multiple sources, Khloe Kardashian agreed to help Odom rebuild his life and even kept herself open to a romantic reconciliation because her estranged husband promised to stop drinking.
But Odom was at the Beverly Center on Sunday afternoon, hanging with a friend who needed some new shoes.
When this friend went off to purchase his new kicks, Odom found a bar inside the mall and ordered some cognac.
This is more than mere speculation, too. TMZ has published photos of Odom at the bar.
He reportedly chatted with some women at the establishment, left $ 60 for his tab and didn’t stay very long.
But the photos most definitely depict a drink in Lamar’s hands.
Sadly, this isn’t the first time Odom has broken his no-drinking vow to Khloe.
On Easter Sunday, Odom was also photographed at a bar, mere hours before going to church with the Kardashians. That time around, he ordered three Remy Martins.
Not long afterward, Khloe allegedly gave up on all efforts to get back together with her ex.
It remains unclear whether or not Kardashian has gone through with the final steps in legally ending her marriage to Odom, but she has penned many cryptic messages on Instagram.
They all seem to point to disappointment in someone and to moving on in some way.
Can you blame Khloe if she’s done with Lamar at this point? For real? Finally? For good?
Let’s just hope he finds the help he needs.
