Khloe Kardashian regrets involvement in ex-husband Lamar Odom’s documentary: ‘I feel played’

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Khloe Kardashian is not holding back when it comes to her ex-husband Lamar Odom.

After appearing in his new documentary, ‘Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom,’ the reality star says she now regrets getting involved at all, especially after hearing what he had to say afterwards.

Speaking on the April 15 episode of her podcast, ‘Khloe in Wonder Land,’ Kardashian opened up about her frustration, making it clear she feels hurt and blindsided by Odom’s recent comments.

Khloe Kardashian says she regrets doing the documentary

Kardashian revealed that she agreed to be part of the documentary as a favor to Odom, even though she had initially been hesitant.

“I think what's pissing me off is, we did this, all good. I was done with this,” she said.

She explained that she had no real interest in revisiting that chapter of her life. “I'm like, I'm never going to do another Lamar thing again, 'cause I'm all good,” she added.

Still, after being approached multiple times and reassured that the project would be positive, she eventually agreed.

“I said, ‘I want to make sure this is a positive piece. I don't really want to go down this road if it's negative. He's been through enough,’” she recalled.

Kardashian also made it clear that she wasn’t doing it for money or personal gain.

“I'm not getting paid one penny to do this. I have no dog in this fight,” she said, stressing that she simply wanted to support him.

Lamar Odom’s comments spark frustration

Things took a turn after the documentary was released. Odom, who revisited his 2015 near-fatal incident in the series, has since pushed back on some of Kardashian’s claims.

Among other things, he disputed her account involving his father and also chose to credit his recovery to faith rather than acknowledging her role.

“But now Lamar is doing press [and saying he's] annoyed with me. Claiming or insinuating that I'm a liar, all these things, discrediting me, saying that I wasn't the one that helped him,” she said.

“I feel so dumb,” she admitted, adding that she’s “p*ssed that I'm even involved.”

Feeling ‘played’ after sharing a painful chapter

What seems to hurt Kardashian the most is the idea that her honesty is now being questioned. The reality star said she only shared her experience because she was asked to and believed it would help tell a complete story.

“All I did was tell the story that I was asked by you to tell,” she said. “But now to, like, play in my face and now to act like I didn't do any of the things I did and insinuate I'm a liar is crazy.”

“I feel played,” she added.

The situation is especially difficult because it forced her to revisit a painful time in her life. “Do people think I like talking about this all day long? No, it's traumatic,” Kardashian said.

She also pointed out that she had kept much of what happened private for years. “I would never expose someone that was not for me to expose. I kept all of that to myself for 11 years,” she shared.

A shift in post-relationship dynamic

Kardashian suggested that Odom’s reaction might be tied to how the documentary has been received. From her perspective, he may not have expected the public response and is now “trying to sort of slander me a little bit,” she explained.

That change, she said, is what’s most upsetting, especially given how he has spoken about her in the past. “For years, he was singing my praises, all this,” she said.

While Kardashian doesn’t expect constant credit, she made it clear that she won’t accept being discredited either.

“I don't even need you to sing my praises. But you're not now going to s*** on me or now play in my face because you don't like the reaction and the response from the public,” she said.
