Things appear to be getting serious between Rick Fox and Khloe Kardashian after their dinner date in Los Angeles, California, on May 22, with the reality star’s new relationship getting a thumbs up from a few important people -- her family!
Kardashian has admitted that she still loves her estranged hubby, Lamar Odom. But that hasn’t kept the reality star from exploring some new dating options since the couple’s split.
She’s most often been linked to her off-and-on boyfriend French Montana. But it appears Kardashian has completely ditched her rapper bae now that her relationship with Fox is heating up! “She’s fallen for him big-time,” a source told Star. “To say it’s love wouldn’t be a stretch.”
The source added that Kardashian and Fox were good friends for years before taking their relationship to a romantic level. “They hung out in the same circle for years, but the timing was never right,” the insider said.

The pair was first linked back in May when they were spotted at Casa Vega as they enjoyed a late night dinner date. Sources told the magazine that the pair chose to sit at a table instead of a bar and that Kardashian “seemed happy” and looked like she was having fun.
And despite the deep connection Kardashian has with Odom and the fact that she reportedly reached out to him after the recent death of his best friend, her time with Fox may have Kardashian ready to finally let her estranged husband go! “Khloe may be finally realizing that a bad boy isn’t what she needs,” the source said.
