Lamar Odom struggled with substance abuse ahead of his divorce from Khloé Kardashian.

Their relationship, which was chronicled on the reality TV show Khloé & Lamar, was plagued by Odom's substance abuse and infidelity. Kardashian filed for divorce in 2013 but withdrew the petition to support him after his near-fatal overdose in 2015. Their divorce was finalized in 2016.

Kardashian also shared her perspective on the end of her marriage to Odom, saying that while it was a "magical time" with "the most purest love I've ever had," there were "bigger things that were not fixable in that marriage."
