While Khloe Kardashian keeps teasing the media on whether or not she plans to reconcile with estranged husband Lamar Odom, her father-in-law Joe Odom has claimed that she kicked him out of his home last year.
Joe, a veteran who suffers from PTSD and pneumonia, lived in a $ 4,000-a-month home with his wife Cecelia in Los Angeles, the rent on which his son Lamar paid for 10 years.
But when Lamar fell into a coma following a drug overdose last November, Khloe took over her husband’s finances and cut Joe off, he told the Post.
“She disrespected me,” Lamar’s dad told the paper.
“She decided to kick me out of my home when Lamar was in hospital in Nevada.”
Joe said the bad news was not delivered by Khloe, but by accountants.
“Khloe didn’t even have the guts to tell me herself that my rent wasn’t going to be paid anymore,” he said.
“She got the guys who handle Lamar’s money to call me and they said the rent wouldn’t be paid, I gotta move and my phone was going to get cut off.”
Joe and his wife had no choice but to move back to Brooklyn, where they are struggling financially.
He says he wishes he could be closer to his son.
“I just wish I could be at his side in LA to support him, but Khloe doesn’t want me there,” he said.
In 2013, Lamar publicly blamed his father for his issues with drugs and claimed his dad was never there for him as a child.
Joe has trashed the Kardashian family in the past and has spoken out against Lamar’s marriage to Khloe.
“They brought him down,” he said.
“He would be better off without them… I think the best thing for him would be to have a clean break, divorce Khloe and as a single man try and get his life back together.”
