00:00Well, the much-anticipated meeting between Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom went down
00:06on the season premiere of The Kardashians, and it was not the big heartwarming reunion
00:12you might have been hoping for.
00:15It was awkward, to say the least, and it's very clear they're on different paths as far
00:22as healing from their marriage and divorce.
00:25So Lamar shows up with a bunch of gifts.
00:28They sit down and just watch this conversation.
00:31I feel badly for both of them, and it makes me think, why did they do this?
00:36I know why they did it.
00:37You know why they did that?
00:38Are you kidding me?
00:39It's a good TV.
00:40It's a season premiere.
00:41Of course.
00:42Well, that's why she did it.
00:43Right.
00:44I think he did it for a different reason, which we'll get into.
00:46This is next to you.
00:49Sure.
00:50You want to sit this close?
00:52How are we going to talk to each other?
00:55Sorry.
00:56Do you need some water?
01:00Yeah, a little bit.
01:01How long has this been?
01:02The last time I've seen you, I don't know, was I was leaving for Las Vegas, kicking you
01:09out of the Calabasas house.
01:12Took you to a lot, huh?
01:16Yes.
01:19You can't say that was the easiest time.
01:26No, not for me either.
01:31Yeah, I f***ed up.
01:35With what?
01:36With you.
01:37I love you for trying your hardest with me, man.
01:45That love, I don't think it'll ever go away.
01:49I know it won't.
01:52I got to say something.
01:53It's so uncomfortable.
01:54I disagree with you.
01:55I feel it's really authentic.
01:58Actually, I said that to someone, I was like, this is probably the most authentic moment
02:03in the history of their show.
02:07I did a documentary with Lamar, and I talked to him about Khloe, and he is deeply in love
02:16with her, and would love to make things work again.
02:21There's a part that he referred to her as my wife, and she completely blanched at that.
02:27I was like, why would he say that?
02:29That means nothing to me.
02:31She says that she's gone the other direction.
02:33She's completely healed from it, and she's learned how to unlove him.
02:39He has so much regret.
02:40He has so much regret over this.
02:42I bet he does, but sadly for him, as a woman, once you find someone that you are truly all
02:49in, so in love with, and it doesn't go right, and it takes you the time that it does to
02:54get over that situation, nine times out of ten, you are never going back.
02:58I think a lot of fans love seeing Lamar and Khloe together when they had their show, and
03:02they got married so quickly, but it seems so pure.
03:05I think fans are okay to know that Khloe took the time to heal and get over Lamar, and don't
03:10want to see her backtrack and get back with him.
03:12As much as it's going to hurt Lamar, that's just how the cookie's going to crumble.
03:15Yeah, it just makes me sad, because I remember sitting with him, and he was so vulnerable
03:20about this, and open, and Lamar's really turned his life around.
03:24I mean, when you think of him at death's door, you know, at his worst when he was with Khloe,
03:30and where he is now with rehab centers, and improving his life, and doing all those things.
03:36But he was a different guy the moment he walked in that room.
03:39Why was he?
03:40And you could feel it.
03:41I mean, you could really just feel it.
03:43Hey, this is Emiliana from Pennsylvania.
03:45You know, I honestly feel for both of them.
03:47You could tell that this was a bit of an awkward situation.
03:51I know I wouldn't want to rehash things with my ex on television in front of a million
03:56people, so I do commend them both for showing each other respect, and, you know, doing the
04:01best that they can.
04:02So, you know, I wish good for both of them.
