Khloé Kardashian is taking issue with comments ex-husband Lamar Odom made about her following the release of his new documentary.
Kardashian, 41, appears in “Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom,” a Netflix documentary about his 14-year NBA career, as well as his struggles with addictions, including when he was found unresponsive in a Nevada brothel in 2015.
Speaking out about her involvement in the project, Kardashian said in the April 15 episode of her “Khloé in Wonder Land” podcast that she regrets being a part of it.
“This is also what is so annoying to me… do people think I just like talking about this all day long? F— no, it’s traumatic,” she told Malika Haqq. “I have to relive things. I have to talk about things that weren’t fun in my life. It’s like, no, I don’t just feel like doing this.”
Kardashian said she “was asked by Lamar or Lamar’s team” to be a part of the project, adding that she contemplated the decision for a while.
In the doc, she speaks about their marriage and being by his side after his 2015 overdose that left him on life support, despite filing for divorce in 2013.
“I think what’s pissing me off is, we did this, all good. I was done with this. I’m like, I’m never going to do another Lamar thing again, ‘cause I’m all good. But now Lamar is doing press,” she said, adding that he’s “annoyed with me. Claiming or insinuating that I’m a liar, all these things, discrediting me, saying that I wasn’t the one that helped him.”
In an April 6 interview on TODAY with Jenna & Sheinelle, Odom was asked if Kardashian helped save his life after he suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks while spending three days in a coma after his overdose.
“In some ways,” he said. “I think God saved my life. My Lord saved my life, honestly.”
He added, “She took care of me. God took care of me the most. What I came back from was like a medical miracle.”
Odom also disputed Kardashian saying in the documentary that his father, Joe Odom, didn’t want him on life support.
“I was knocked out and asleep at that time, but if you know Joe Odom, I don’t think that’s something that would ever come out of his mouth,” Odom said. “He was my biggest fan. I don’t know where there got caught — translated. I just can’t see him ever, ever doing that.”
In the podcast episode, Kardashian said she tried to talk to Odom ahead of her interview for the documentary but he didn’t reply.
“But you’re not now going to s— on me or now play in my face because you don’t like the reaction and the response from the public,” she said, later adding, “I feel so dumb I spent hours and time doing this documentary as a favor.”
She made it clear that she didn’t get paid to be participate, adding she’s “pissed that I’m even involved” following his reaction.
“All I did was tell the story that I was asked by you to tell, but now to, like, play in my face and now to act like I didn’t do any of the things I did and insinuate I’m a liar is crazy,” she said. “I feel played.”
Reps for Odom did not immediately respond to TODAY.com’s request for comment.
Additionally, during his sit down with Jenna and Sheinelle, Odom reflected on reuniting with his ex-wife nine years after their divorce. The moment was captured for “The Kardashians” Season 6 premiere.
“It was awkward,” he said about their first conversation following their separation. “It wasn’t really good for me, but you know, once you family, you always family, so she ain’t going nowhere.”
Adding, “I will always have love for her, but being in love? No.”
