Lamar Odom is increasingly growing worried that his portrayal on the upcoming new season of the reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians could have negative consequences on his hopes of resurrecting his NBA career.
According to HollywoodLife.com as season nine of the show he once starred on alongside soon-to-be ex-wife Khloe Kardashian approaches, Odom is leery about their breakup being a main plot line.
Despite assurances from the Kardashian clan to the contrary, the website reports Odom fears the show will openly delve into his alleged drug addiction and chronic infidelity, all for the sake of ratings.
"The last thing Lamar needs in his life is to be portrayed as a schmuck," HollywoodLife reports a source close to Odom as lamenting. "Khloe has assured him that it won't be bad, but how can it not be? The end of the marriage is going to be Khloe's main storyline next season and Lamar is afraid that his drug use and cheating will be addressed on the show."
The source later added "he is trying to make a career comeback and he thinks this is going to hinder and hurt those efforts. He feels he's going to be used to get ratings for the Kardashians."
In formally filing for divorce on Dec. 13, Kardashian cited irreconcilable differences, but sources insist she and Odom remain somewhat connected.
"She is making sure he is taking care of responsibilities with his DUI and meeting with his trainer," the source told HollywoodLife. "It's definitely a mother-son type of relationship. There will always be a lot of love there between the two, but Khloe has definitely moved on. There are zero plans for the former couple to reconcile and both are very amicable right now, which is a good sign for the divorce. It should be quick, with no drama."
