Lamar Odom goes missing

According to new reports, Lamar Odom has gone missing.

TMZ claims that people close to Lamar Odom have been unable to find or contact him for the last 72 hours.

The reports come after it was alleged that Khloe Kardashian threw him out of the house on Wednesday.

Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have been subject to persistent rumors that their marriage is in trouble after Lamar allegedly cheated on Khloe with two different women.

But several sources have told TMZ the real reason behind their marriage crisis is that Khloe Kardashian, 29, reportedly believes that her husband has a drug problem.

“Really hard to sit here and listen to people talk s*** about my family! F*** you and shame on you! I’m too protective for this s***!” Khloe Kardashian tweeted on Sunday.

Earlier this week the Kardashian family allegedly staged an intervention to convince Lamar Odom, 33, to return to rehab, but he refused, reports the gossip website.

Khloe Kardashian urged Lamar Odom in August 2012 to go to rehab and after he entered a San Diego facility she hired private investigators to make sure he didn’t leave.

The NBA star reportedly constantly threatened to leave the rehab clinic and Khloe visited several times to convince him to stay, but he left after three weeks, sources said.

Lamar Odom, who won two championships with the Los Angeles Lakers, stayed clean and played well last season for the Los Angeles Clippers, but sources said he resumed using drugs after the season.

Khloe Kardashian was convinced of recent reports of Lamar Odom’s infidelity, but feels his drug abuse has been the main problem, the website reported.

Neither Khloe Kardashian nor Lamar Odom has contacted a divorce lawyer.

“Khloe is more concerned about saving Lamar than ending her marriage,” a source told TMZ.

Khloe Kardashian allegedly tossed Lamar Odom out of the house after the failed intervention, and he was pictured Wednesday as an associated loaded a number of large suitcases into his car in Calabasas, California.

Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian got married in 2009 about a month after meeting each other.

Khloe Kardashian has recently endured reports that Lamar Odom had an affair with Jennifer Richardson for a year until March 2013 and a six-week fling with lawyer Polina Polonsky at the start of the summer.
