Lamar Odom has made no secret of the fact that he wants ex-wife Khloé Kardashian back! The 42-year-old former LA Lakers star made the shocking confession on Celebrity Big Brother, which he is currently starring in. He first brought up the 37-year-old Good American founder when talking to fellow housemate Todrick Hall, telling the 36-year-old former American Idol star that he actually signed up to season 3 of the CBS reality TV show because he was hoping that Khloé would be in there. Woah!

“I wanted to see her so bad, bro,” Lamar confessed to Todrick. “Sometimes when I get the opportunity to talk about it, it’s like therapeutic a little bit and I do miss her and her family dearly,” the basketball star added. “Even just to her family, I am sorry that I let them down. They had so much faith in me and gave me my own nickname ”Lammy.” I would do anything to make it up.”

Wow – clearly the Celebrity Big Brother house is the best place for all the behind-the-scenes gossip! We shouldn’t be too shocked to hear Lamar speak about his ex-wife – who he officially got divorced from in 2016 – like this though, as he previously commented on the Tristan Thompson paternity scandal, and said he wanted to give his ex-wife a hug following everything she has been through with the 30-year-old Sacramento Kings player.

Interestingly, Khloé is already aware of what her ex-husband has been saying in the CBB house. And she isn’t mad about it! "Khloé thinks it’s actually great that Lamar went on because it’s more an opportunity than anything else," an insider told Us Weekly. "It’s income for him and something new and exciting."

Despite Lamar's initial comments about hoping to find Khloé in the CBB house, a source close to the former athlete revealed that he didn’t actually sign up for the show because of Khloé. "He didn’t go on the show with the intention of it being a platform to talk about Khloé again," a source told Us Weekly, before adding that it is merely an "opportunity for him to get paid and to be back in the spotlight and to grow his fan base."

His management team also echoes this, telling the mag: "Lamar’s appearance on CBB is in no way a ‘ploy’ to reunite with his ex-wife. Lamar has moved on with life and is working diligently to build an image and a brand as a businessman in the athletic and entertainment industry." They went on to say that Odom "will always carry a fondness for Khloé and her family in his heart," and added that "he does regret his behavior while married to her and [whenever he is] given an opportunity to apologize privately or publicly, he does so." Could Khloé and Lamar actually get back together this year? Stranger things have happened so we're not ruling it out!
