The Kardashian family are reality television royalty. Each week, millions of fans watch their lives unfold on the small screen, and pour over details of their lives in constant tabloid coverage. Perhaps one of the biggest narratives on “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” was when Khloe married basketball player Lamar Odom, after only knowing each other for a month. The new couple’s relationship plays out on the show, including their own spin-off. They appear happy, committed and in love.
But – is what fans see on the small screen actually representative of the couple’s relationship? Our team of experts says no way. In reality, (not television reality!) the couple is plagued by infidelity and drug abuse. Even storylines of fertility issues are called into question. Their issues are only exacerbated by their constant presence on television, gossip blogs and tabloids. The couple’s dysfunctional relationship reaches new lows when Lamar nearly dies, after a drug and alcohol binge at the notorious “Bunny Ranch” brothel in Nevada.
