The Financial Breakdown of the Divorce

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom finalized their divorce in December 2016, ending a marriage that had been legally tied for years. The financial resolution was relatively straightforward due to a prenuptial agreement that ensured both parties retained the assets and wealth they brought into the union.

Neither party received spousal support, despite Kardashian being entitled to request it. Key terms of the settlement included:

  • Property: Khloe Kardashian retained ownership of the couple's marital mansion.
  • Insurance: Kardashian remained the sole beneficiary of a multi-million-dollar life insurance policy held by Odom.
  • Support: Both parties waived their rights to spousal support.

A Timeline of Separation and Reconciliation

Kardashian initially filed for divorce in December 2013. However, the process was put on hold in 2015 after Odom was found unconscious at the Love Ranch, a brothel in Crystal, Nevada, on October 13, 2015.

Following his collapse, Odom spent three days in a coma at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas. Kardashian rescinded the divorce filing to manage his medical affairs, stating, “I never left the hospital. I was there for about four months, with him every single day.”

Recovery and Final Split

After being moved to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and eventually a private rehab facility in January, Odom began his recovery. Kardashian supported this transition by renting a home for him nearby and hiring a caretaker to assist with his rehabilitation.

The relationship reached a breaking point in May 2016. Kardashian discovered Odom smoking crack in his bedroom, an event she described as the catalyst for her final decision to move forward with the divorce. She confronted him, noting her frustration after putting her life on hold to aid in his recovery.
