Netflix’s 'Untold' Revisits Lamar Odom’s Near-Death Spiral and Recovery

New testimony reframes a public saga by centering medical decisions, relapse risk, caregiving roles.

Overview

  • Netflix released the Lamar Odom episode of Untold on Tuesday, renewing attention on his 2015 overdose, long rehab, and private family fallout.
  • Odom said he has not watched the film and called revisiting his past “like swimming in a cesspool of trauma,” while reporting roughly 60 days sober after finishing a 30‑day rehab stay in February.
  • He pleaded not guilty to a January DUI in Las Vegas, and court records show a bench trial set for July 7.
  • Khloé Kardashian recounts deciding on a high‑risk surgery for Odom’s collapsed lungs with guidance from Kobe Bryant after doctors warned of a low chance of success.
  • Family members say they were not invited to Odom’s 2009 wedding to Kardashian, and his children recall hospital visits in 2015 when they feared they were saying goodbye.
