Former NBA star Lamar Odom may no longer be married to Khloe Kardashian, but he’s ordered a customized sex doll that will look like the reality show star.
The two were married from 2009 to 2016, but they divorced after revelations about Odom’s abuse of drugs and alcohol, as well as his infidelity.
Odom, 45, told the “We’re Out of Time” podcast about his relationship with his 40-year ex-wife. Even though they don’t talk much these days, he said, he insisted that “she still cares about me.”
He said most of the distance was a result of “life.”
“I don’t speak to her. I can text her, and she’ll reply,” he said.
Since they don’t see each other in person much, Odom is apparently seeking connection with a Khloe look-alike sex doll.
Odom told host Richard Taite that the doll is meant to be a “mental wellness” tool.
When you’re really thinking about it, [it’s] like a doll,” he said. “But then you think about like, mental health, and how important that is, not just in today’s time, but just from the beginning of time. A sex doll that looks like your wife is about mental health.”
Earlier this month, TMZ reported that Odom visited the Las Vegas facility owned by RealDoll, a company that makes realistic-looking sex dolls.
Most of the female dolls the company makes sell for around $7,000 for a basic model and nearly $20,000 for a customized one. TMZ said Odom got a discount for his Khloe doll but didn’t reveal how much.
Still, Odom admitted the idea of buying a sex doll that looks like his ex is a little strange.
“It’s sick, but I think we’re all a little off, a little weird,” he said. “They’re gonna make it to look like her. I need like, a harem.”
