Lamar Odom alleges his ex-fiancee, Sabrina Parr slept with his ex-wife Khloe Kardashian's partner Tristan Thompson

Posted: 13 Feb 2021 09:00 PM PST

Former NBA star Lamar Odom has alleged that his former partner Sabrina Parr slept with his ex-wife, Khloe Kardashian's partner Tristan Thompson.

Odom and Parr split back in November 2020.

The basketball star made this known during a chat with media personality Wendy Williams.

"There were some things that kind of made me look at her out of the corner of my eye. Like when she told me that she had slept with my ex-wife's significant other," he said.

When Williams pressured Odom to confirm who he was speaking of Lamar responded "Come on Wendy you could put that together. I don't say names if I don't have to."


Wendy further pried by asking him 'Tristan Thompson?' Khloe's current partner, Odom raised his eyebrows without saying anything.


Odom and Parr have been in an off and on relationship.

It would be recalled that Parr had announced that her engagement to Odom was over.

She broke the news via her Instagram page on Wednesday, November 4, 2020.

"Y'all know I'm honest and transparent so I have to be the first to let you guys know that I am no longer engaged to Lamar," Parr wrote on her Instagram Story. "This has been a difficult decision for me to make but it is the best for myself and my children," she wrote.

Odom popped the question to Parr back in November 2019, announcing their engagement with another Instagram post.

The former NBA star was previously married to Kardashian.

The stars tied the knot in 2009 just one month after they met.

They split after four years of marriage due to Odom's struggles with addiction and infidelity.

"My values are very strong. I have my own children and they are very strong in that regard too. I am not one to be involved in politics. But you see, not all your children are bound to follow you.

One of my sons, who incidentally is an actor, has decided that he wants to be a politician. Most of the youngsters have been bugging my phone asking me to endorse my son that they want him as president and l get amused. But they keep insisting daddy, we want Yul to be the president of this country.

We like him. He is disciplined, sympathetic, he believes a lot in people. They have bothered me so much that today, I'm hereby present him to you. He has my blessing. He has my endorsement.

Any day he decides to veer off from the discipline under which he was raised, l will withdraw him from the race. It shall be well with you son. Since it has been your ambition to go into politics and the desire to run for the presidency of this country, may the good Lord assist you, protect and direct you."
