Lamar Odom Publicly Disputes Khloé Kardashian’s Claim About Life Support in Netflix Doc

The dispute highlights how people can remember the same emergency in different ways years later.

Overview

  • Khloé Kardashian, in Netflix’s Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom, says Joe Odom told others not to put Lamar on life support during his 2015 overdose.
  • Lamar Odom rejected that account in a live Today interview, saying he was unconscious at the time and that his father would not have made such a request.
  • He defended his late father as his biggest fan, wore a pendant with his parents on set, and urged viewers to mend family rifts because life is not promised.
  • Kardashian also said she felt duty-bound as Lamar’s wife to manage his care and trusted her own judgment over people in his circle during the crisis.
  • The current coverage centers on the contradiction between the documentary and Odom’s on-camera rebuttal, with no independent confirmation of what Joe Odom said.
