Lamar & Khloe's Relationship Was Once Super Strong

by Michelle McGahan

On Wednesday, it was reported by TMZ and E! News, that Khloé Kardashian and Lamar Odom have decided to call off their divorce, which was reportedly not yet finalized. Bustle has reached out to Odom and Kardashian's reps for comment on the reports, but has not yet heard back. In light of their rumored decision, some fans may be wondering what this means or why they would make this choice. It's not clear yet what the reality star and two-time NBA champ are thinking, but it's undeniable that they had some very joyful days together.

It's true that their love story was not without struggle, but it was still filled with endless love, mutual support, and understanding. Something that always struck me about Kardashian and Odom's relationship was how passionate they were, and how deeply they cared for one another — even after their marriage was over. Despite the couple's split, the two seemed to remain friends for the most part and many were hopeful that they would eventually reconcile. Now that that seems like it could be a possibility, let's take a look at some of the moments from their relationship that show how strong it once was.

1. Their Whirlwind Engagement

It came as a shock to pretty much everyone that Odom popped the question to Kardashian after just one month of dating, but their quick engagement only proved how deeply the two felt for each other.

2. Their Wedding

Like their sudden engagement, Odom and Kardashian wasted no time in tying the knot.

3. Their Matching Tattoos

Kardashian and Odom chose to honor each other by getting their initials tattooed on their hands — and by not removing them, despite their split.

4. Their Fight To Conceive

Though the couple struggled with infertility issues — as was shown on their reality series, Khloe & Lamar — the two stuck by each other in their desire to have kids.

6. Their Love & Support For One Another, Even After Their Split

If Kardashian's love for her ex wasn't apparent in the fact that she (along with Kris and, reportedly, Kim) flew out to Nevada to be by Odom's bedside, the above KUWTK clip — which features Odom calling up Kardashian in the wake of his best friend's death — shows how much the two leaned on each other for support.

"Lamar is genuinely one of the best people I've ever met, and everyone says that when they meet him," Kardashian told Complex earlier this year. "I think Lamar’s gonna always be that person [for me] but that’s what made it so special. Even if I had it for five years or whatever, it was the best ever and I’m grateful I did. Some people don’t get that ever and I had that magic for a long time."
