Lamar Odom joked that his ex-wife Khloe Kardashian should have had a second child with him instead of Tristan Thompson.
Odom and Kardashian got married a month after they met each other in 2009, but Kardashian filed for divorce in 2013 following rumors of Odom's drug use and infidelity, as reported by BuzzFeed News. Since the divorce was finalized in 2016, the reality star has been in an on-off relationship with NBA player Tristan Thompson.
Despite Thompson cheating on Kardashian on numerous occasions, she confirmed earlier this month that they are expecting a second baby via a surrogate.
Odom shared his reaction to the news in an interview with Page Six. In the video interview, the former NBA star seemed surprised by the news, asking: "Well, are they going to be together?"
When the interviewer said they weren't and mentioned Thompson's infidelity, Odom replied: "Oh, he got caught cheating again? And they're going to have another baby? She could have hollered at me for that."
Earlier this year, during his appearance on "Celebrity Big Brother," Odom admitted that he didn't treat his ex-wife "right" during their marriage, and wished that he could take Kardashian to dinner and apologize for his actions.
In another episode, he said: "I miss her so much. I wish I could take that time back."
Kardashian has since said on the "Not Skinny But Not Fat" podcast in May that she's "happy" for Odom overcoming his past troubles, but did not express any interest in getting back together.
The reality star is currently single after Thompson's latest infidelity.
In 2018, days before Kardashian gave birth to their first baby, True, multiple videos of Thompson appearing to cheat on Kardashian were published online. The couple continued dating on and off until 2019 when Thompson reportedly kissed Kylie Jenner's best friend Jordyn Woods at a party.
The pair got back together in 2020 until yet another incident happened last year, weeks after the couple conceived their second child together via surrogate. A fitness instructor named Maralee Nichols gave birth to a child she conceived with Thompson during the time he was back together with Kardashian.
The cheating scandals were discussed during the first season of "The Kardashians."
Kardashian said in the finale after the final scandal was revealed: "It's just an additional slap in my face. It's humiliating, I'm embarrassed... I feel just not really in my own body, these things are just happening and I'm going through the motions. But when things happen to you a few times, you do kinda become immune to them, which is really sad."
