LAMAR ODOM: MY WIFE AND I AREN’T READY FOR KIDS JUST YET
Submitted by admin on October 22, 2009 at 8:25 pm 31 Comments
Newlyweds Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian aren’t ready to have kids just yet.
“Maybe one day, hopefully,” the NBA player told Usmagazine at his clothing launch on Wednesday. “That’s what kings and queens are put on the earth for, to have offspring.”
As for the couple’s whirlwind romance, Lamar said, “When you know, you know!” My wife is a beautiful person and she looks alright, too! She looks beautiful. I’m lucky!”
Lamar has two children Destiny, 11, and Lamar Jr., 8, with his ex-girlfriend Liza Morales and says “of course” Khloe will meet his children.
Lamar and Khloe married on September 27th, 2009 after dating for one month.
I honestly don’t like this couple, I think they got married for publicity. They don’t need to have kids they haven’t even been together long enough. But on a happier note his kids are too cute.
You married a woman who hasn’t even met your children? How serious can this be?!
“That’s what kings and queens are put on the earth for, to have offspring.” SMH…I guess I shouldn’t have had Zuri…you know, since I’m not royalty and all!
Waas thinkng the same thing how cud u marry sumbody an dey dnt even no ur kids lol ahhhahaha but wish thewm all d best
can you imagine??? how active is he in his childrens lives anyway? he couldnt even take the time let them feel comfortable to get to know her. i would never marry a man that was not active in his childrens lives. i bet he doesnt even know whats going on with them because he is too busy loving the new fame
their whole family is a joke. everything is for publicity. marriage is an important commitment.
that’s what kings and queens were put on earth for?…ha!
Lol! That was such a hilarious comment that he made?
Kings and queens?! Don’t make me laugh. Oops, already did.
1st off the kids are cute, his girl looks just like him
now, i heard they are not offically married cuz the pre nup has not been agreed on. 2nd how do you marry someone with out introducing them to your kids. Y were your kids not at the wedding. the nerve of some people, ugh
Welp, no point in rushing for children before you are ready. There’s nothing wrong with waiting. Lamar’s children are so cute.
I wish Lamar and Khloe the best.
I’m sorry but I didn’t realize he and his wife are royalty, haha. His kids are cute and I do wish Lamar and Khloe all the best. However, I do have to agree that their marriage seemed like a complete publicity stunt.
Biggest publicity stunt of the year. Lamar wanted out of Kobe’s shadow, and Khloe wanted more attention. Kim and Reggie broke up (although they’re back together now), and Kourtney became pregnant. Khloe needed something to steal the shine, and that bullshit marriage is the result. Shame on Lamar…you don’t put someone in your life who doesn’t know your children.
You’re right! I never looked at it that way. This is worse than Nick and Mariah.
Nick and Mariah—they may seem star-crossed, but it looks real and they seem to be having a ball with each other; They also didn’t bring kids into their union. Lastly, they have been married over a year now–a record by Hollywood standads–lol
Thanks for calling it like you see it. So true!
“of COURSE” my wife will meet my kids !!!! there on my “offspring” with my previous “queen” !!!!
WTF !!!!
he is so dumb and ignorant.
He never married the mother of his children after being together forever in a day, but married Khloe after being together for one minute, that is so sad, Liza Morales was good enough to make babies with but not marry after a decade. Who marries a man without meeting his children, I wonder if she knows any of his family.
I dont understand how they got so serious, so fast, love and marriage take time. A month for all this is a joke. Meanwhile he was with the mother of his kids for 10 years. Wasup with that ???
this reminds me of that post about the nba player girlfriend who been together for 8 years have 2 kids and one on the way and there not married. this is what happens when you don’t demand your respect!!
Khloe will be trying soon for a baby,even though she will be getting money anyway the stalbility will be more if they had children.
Not being ready for kids is a good thing for these two! That Khloe is a JOKE!!!
I just hoping for their sake this whole “whirlwind romance” doesn’t bite them in the a%$ later on!
Only been together for a month and “You Know”? It always seems that way early on…I bet he thought he “KNEW” with his EX-wife who he decide to have TWO children with too!
How do you marry someone and not introduce them to you children first (how they treat your children can be very telling)?
i think the best cure for these two is mental help and a divorce. Not like this is a real marriage anyway. fools.
Um Khloe wanted more attention and financial security and he wanted a “white” girl.
i THINK EVERYONE ON HERE IS A HATER WHO CARES IF IT WAS ONLY A MONTH AND THEY GOT MARRIED HEY THERE IS SUCH THING AS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, A LOT OF TIMES YOU JUST KNOW. aND AS FAR AS MEETING THE KIDS WHO TO SAY WHAT IS GOING ON THE MOTHER OF HIS CHILDREN COULD BE THE REASON THEY DON’T WANT TO MEET HER, SHE IS MOST LIKELY TALKING ILL IN THOSE KIDS EARS BECAUSE HE MARRIED SOMEONE ELSE AT NOT HER, JEALOUS. aND MAYBE HE DIDN’T STAY WITH HIS BABY MAMA BECAUSE SHE WASN’T THE RIGHT ONE, HEY IT HAPPENS PEOPLE GET MARRIED WAIT TO HAVE KIDS THEN HAVE KIDS AND DIVORCE SO THE YOU CAN GET ME PREGNANT BUT NOT MARRY ME LINE IS RIDICULOUS. I AM HAPPY FOR THEM.
Nikki, have you ever heard of the honeymoon stage? That’s the time in a relationship when all is great and rosey, i.e. initial attraction, butterflies in stomach, and the eurphoria of meeting someone new. It’s exciting, but you never base a relationship off that moment. Love progresses. The reality is when you get to the know the person; when you see them in good and bad times - you know their likes/dislikes, how they respond to certain situations. You are planning to be married for life. How in the heck is someone going to “just know” after only a few days, weeks, or months of meeting someone.
On 20/20 some months ago and on Oprah yesterday, there were about 6 women how had dated this one man, some for months, and I think one dated him for 4 years if I’m not mistaking. They then found out he was HIV positive. They didn’t know he was dating other women. You see? You never know what a man is all about. Heck, you can know a person for years and still not know. Nothing is guaranteed, but you still don’t want to throw caution to the wind when it comes to a lifelong decision like marriage. Maybe that’s why people get divorced so quickly. It’s not about marriage per se, but some people marrying for the wrong reasons. There are people who have met and married right away and it lasted (exception to the rule). Some have known people for years and it doesn’t last, but, again, why take the risk? Marriage is hard enough as it is. It’s like playing Russian Roulette. You are lucky if you dodge the bullet, but there’s a high probability that you won’t.
@ Terri, well stated and you hit the nail on the head. But hopefully these two will play the waiting game when it comes to having kids—they truly need to slow it down and get to know each other 4 real.
Ummm Okay Nikki!
Well they probably weren’t ready to get married either but they did that so anything’s possible.
Oh Lamar….
I hope he’s happy.
Didn’t meet his kids? Do they not reside in the U.S? Has their mom barred a visit? Is he not really that involed with them himself?
I could see holding off on waiting for a certain girlfriend or boyfriend to meet the kids from previous, but when it gets serious enough that marriage is on the table, I dunno…
As for whirldwind romance?—good luck with that.
train wreck.
I ain’t nockin the time they been together. But I don’t know what to make of this couple. Is it real? Is it a sham? It is going strong? Is it going downhill already? Who knows what the tabloids would have you believe.
Did they do for publicity? Well um… nobody knew who the hell Lamar was up until this marriage. And Klhoe is not even an A-lister. The most famous Kardashian was Kim. So together these two make headlines but are otherwise unknown if they had stayed apart. Well that’s a case for this being publicity but I don’t think it was that. I think they probably really did ‘fall’ for each other - but I think they got married too soon. I don’t see this lasting more than year….
As for Mariah and Nick - that was a surprise I didn’t even know Mariah was into black men. And Nick hopped on that because it was hello? - Mariah Carey that’s probably the greatest honor he’s ever had. But they seem to be having fun and their marriage seems pretty good - from what I can tell of the tabloids.
