Things were intense on last night’s episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, as the drama surrounding Khloé Kardashian and Lamar Odom reached a new level after news broke that the former basketball star gave an interview to In Touch professing his love for the reality star.

In response, Khloé said, “I didn’t get why Lamar is saying this and making things so public right now,” adding, “I think it’s so out of character for him. I’m so confused.”

Though the 31-year-old is separated from her estranged-husband, she admitted, “Everything Lamar is saying is true. I do love Lamar.”

She continued, “But Lamar is all talk and no action. For two years I’ve wanted Lamar to try. For two years I’ve wanted Lamar to show me some effort. But nothing ever changes. It definitely makes me sad because I still believe he is my soulmate. But right now I have to do what’s best for me.”

Before the NBA player’s accidental overdose in October, Lamar spoke to In Touch in August in a candid interview, and called Khloé his “soulmate.” He revealed, “I can’t control it. We’ll never part. I would never consider myself serious with another woman. To sum it up, if a man is attempting to court Khloé, he’s probably wasting his time.”

Khloé and James.

The blonde-beauty is currently in a relationship with basketball star James Harden, and though she’s been at her ex’s bedside during his difficult recovery, Khloé has voiced her relationship status openly.

She previously confessed, “[James] has been great with me and I’m just allowing everything to unfold. If it’s ever too overwhelming [for him], then I understand that as well.”
