Khloe Kardashian has revealed how she feels about Lamar Odom’s confession that he has a blow-up doll that looks like her in order to fulfil his sexual fantasies. The disturbing admission came back in November when the 45-year-old former basketball player when Lamar featured in a video online touring the RealDoll factory in Las Vegas, going on to order a custom doll that was based off of Khloe. He received intense backlash online, many pointing out how inappropriate and violating it is.

Now, on a new episode of The Kardashians, Khloe has opened up about how the news made her feel. ‘I found out about Lamar’s blow-up doll the same way any of us found out, it was on the internet,’ she says. ‘Not sure why that’s something we are publicly talking about. I’m supposed to be flattered by this. It’s more man, this validates just how different we are and how much we’ve grown apart. It’s creepy and it’s weird, but I’m not hurt by it that’s more his journey, it’s just weird and gross.’

In the episode, Khloe is seen reading stories about Lamar buying the doll online, reading aloud, ‘Lamar thinks this Khloe-like sex doll will be perfect because he can do whatever he wants with her sexually’. She then turns to her mum Kris and friend Malika Haqq, saying of Odom ‘You sound so demonic and unwell.’

Reports claim dolls from the RealDoll company retail for up to $20,000, with Lamar claiming on a podcast that he bought his Khloe-like doll for his ‘mental health’.

‘A sex doll that looks like your wife, is that mental health?’ asked host Richard Taite. ‘For me it would be,’ Odom said. ‘I mean, it’s sick but I think we’re all a little off or a little weird, a little bit.’ He then joked that he would buy several and sell them himself.

It’s not the first time Khloe has been left uncomfortable by Odom’s behaviour on this season of The Kardashians. Earlier episodes show Khloe and Odom reuniting for the first time in nine years, following a tumultuous divorce and then friendship breakdown due to Odom’s struggle with addiction.

Khloe got back in touch with Odom in order to return some sentimental items she’d kept hold of until he was sober and well, after previously returning some of his things to a friend of Odom’s who ended up selling them online. The scene showed an uncomfortable Khloe and extremely nervous Odom meet at Haqq’s home.

‘I don’t have bad blood. I don’t have any blood. There’s no feelings,’ Khloe said in a confessional. ‘I want him to have his stuff…and that’s it. I wish I could just do that and not have a conversation… I have dealt with so much trauma in this relationship for years and this was such the love of my life that to learn how to unlove someone — to have to go through all that — it’s almost like a death.’

While Khloe was visibly unemotional during the meeting, Odom was sweating and could barely speak. After giving him his things, Odom quipped ‘my wife is the shit’ before going on to tearily explain that he ‘can’t fathom’ what he put her through and wants to prove to her that he’s a ‘changed man’. He even hoped she would kiss him, he says, before Khloe corrects him that they’re no longer married.

The excruciatingly awkward scene was later dissected by Khloe, Kendall and Kylie in this week’s episode.

‘I started getting really anxious without me even noticing it,’ Khloe recalls. ‘The tardiness, the sweating, things that are maybe triggers for me, and I was just like, “I have to get through this.” I could tell in the moment I’m so guarded. I knew this man so well and I was a secret keeper, a lover, a best friend. I was so many things, and then you’re just nothing. And then to see someone, it’s almost like this flood of emotions. It’s so many things to process, but in that moment, I could tell I was really uncomfortable.’

And surely, she is even more so now, knowing the disturbing sex doll confession – alas, we’ll see that all play out on next week’s episode, we’re sure!
