“We always have and will continue to do so. Together as a team, we will support and encourage him always,” she said.
Alvina Alston gave a positive update to Lamar Odom’s medical progress that didn’t mention any surgeries.
“To our overwhelming delight, Lamar’s courageous improvement continues on the incline in Los Angeles. He is beginning to gradually flourish both mentally and physically,” she said.
“His use of speech has increased and he’s more cognitively responsive.”

Khloe Kardashian has opened up on Jamie Foxx’s controversial joke about Bruce Jenner at Sunday’s iHeart Radio Music Awards.
At the iHeartRadio Music Awards, which Jamie Foxx was hosting, he joked in his opening monologue about Bruce Jenner’s reported transition to a woman.
“Bruce Jenner will be here doing some musical performances. He’s doing a his and her duet by himself,” Jamie Foxx said during the televised event on NBC.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star came to Bruce Jenner’s defense telling to The Insider at the Ulta Beauty & Khloe Kardashian Celebrate the Launch of Kardashian Beauty event on April 2: “I just think it’s a low blow. I think it’s very mean. I wish him all the best. It is what it is.
“I know Jamie, so I think that’s also why that’s a really low blow.”
“But hey, guess that’s what he felt the need to do for a little press,” Khloe Kardashian continued.
Viewers were not happy about Jamie Foxx’s joke almost immediately after it aired on March 29, with some taking to Twitter to criticize his choice words.

Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner “did not approve and told Khloe all the time”, an insider said. Previous reports also claimed that sister Kim Kardashian and stepdad Bruce Jenner were “very skeptical” of French Montana and worried he was using Khloe for fame.
Khloe Kardashian herself didn’t seem too concerned about French Montana’s motives, though, even after he admitted he wanted to “capitalize” on the attention. French Montana later said his words had been taken out of context and gushed that he’d do anything for his lady love.
“She supports me with everything I do,” French Montana told Access Hollywood Live in August.
“When it comes to her career, I don’t think about it. If she needs me to do something, I do it.”
In recent interview with Billboard Magazine, rapper French Montana admitted he wanted to take advantage of the spotlight dating Khloe Kardashian brought him.
French Montana’s remarks sparked outrage among Kardashian fans after he said: “I want to capitalize on it.”
“I’ll get a fan base from everywhere. I just hope I’ll be able to connect with everything that’s going on.”

French Montana’s comments, which came a few days after Khloe Kardashian appeared in his Don’t Panic music video, caused fans to lash out, especially considering Kardashian has dealt publicly with the painful divorce from Lamar Odom on the most recent season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
However, Khloe Kardashian doesn’t seem offended by French Montana’s comments.
On Sunday, Khloe Kardashian tweeted: “It’s amusing to me that Y’all think I don’t see it. I was the first one to see it. I just don’t care.”

The preview of the July 27 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians showed that things get tense between Kim and Khloe Kardashian on the family’s vacation to Thailand, when Khloe decides to “get the freak out of [there]” early.
Kim Kardashian, 33, doesn’t understand why her younger sister, 30, is so eager to leave and travel alone, and she has no problem saying so. Her disapproval doesn’t sit well with Khloe Kardashian, who responds by mocking Kim’s rather obsessive habit of taking pictures of herself.

“Why don’t you go take some more selfies?” Khloe Kardashian quips.
“I’m doing it for Kanye, someone that I love,” Kim Kardashian replies, to which Khloe sarcastically retorts: “One day I’ll be so lucky.”

Not a lot but every so often. They are still working out some logistics and things are friendly between them. They will always have a deep affection for one another.”
Khloe Kardashian shared her pain on Twitter by posting a message that appeared to address both her recent divorce filing from Lamar Odom and reports that she’s spending time with baseball star Matt Kemp and rapper The Game.
“This, in and of itself, is heartbreaking and torture to my soul,” Khloe Kardashian wrote, seemingly in reference to her parting of ways with Lamar Odom.
“Please, I don’t need the extra rumors and BS right now.”
Khloe Kardashian, 29, has stepped out with Matt Kemp several times in recent weeks, including a gym date last Friday, the day she filed for divorce. While sources have insisted the two are just friends, Kardashians insiders tell TMZ they’re “in the early, early stages of a relationship” and are “taking it really slow.”
As for The Game, those rumblings date back to early 2013, and despite OK!’s latest assertion that “he’s helping [Khloe Kardashian] through her heartache”, the story has once again been roundly denied.

“It wasn’t some huge shock for the older kids,” the reality star said during an interview with The Kyle and Jackie O Show in Sydney, Australia, on November 21.
“[They’ve been] living apart for maybe like a year now,” she confirmed.
“I even said on the show, <<Once you guys put that much space in between you guys, I don’t think you will ever move back together>>,” she added.
“<<Because you kind of get comfortable in that space>>. So I wasn’t for him moving out in the first place. I just kind of saw it going down this road.”

The transition may not have been too tough on Kim, Kourtney and Rob Kardashian, but the decision to begin a new chapter proved to be a bit more difficult for younger sisters Kendall and Kylie, Bruce Jenner’s biological kids.
“They have a harder time kind of understanding it,” Khloe Kardashian admitted.
“They were like, <<Well, why don’t you guys just get a divorce then?!>>.”
But as it turns out, the change actually helped their parents’ relationship.
“They’re nicer to each other [now]. My mom could get frustrated with him very quickly. Or he would always want to play golf and be gone,” she said, but now “he actually wants to come over more and be around us more. I would say it’s a really positive thing. My mom and him, there’s no animosity”.
As for dating post-split, that’s apparently a different story.
“[They aren’t] looking to be with other people right now,” Khloe Kardashian explained.
