After months of
speculation, Khloe Kardashian is ending her four-
year marriage to Lamar Odom.
The Reality TV star filed for divorce Friday in
Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing
irreconcilable differences. She also wants her
last name restored to Kardashian from
Kardashian Odom.
The filing comes days after Odom pleaded no
contest on Monday to a misdemeanor drunken
driving charge.
The 34-year-old athlete was arrested last August
after his Mercedes-Benz SUV was seen weaving
on an LA freeway.
He seemed to address rumors of personal
problems when he tweeted a cryptic message in
September, saying he had been ''Seeing the
Snakes.''
Only the Kardashian family, Odom said then, was
standing by him.
The 6-foot-10-inch power forward has been out
of the NBA since going unsigned as a free agent
after a miserable season last year.
Odom last played for the Los Angeles Clippers
during the 2012-13 season, averaging a career-
low 4.0 points and 5.9 rebounds. Clippers coach
Doc Rivers met with him last month, but
apparently nothing came of those talks.
He had his best years with the Los Angeles
Lakers between 2004 and 2011. The team won
NBA championships in 2010 and 2011 and Odom
won the NBA's sixth man award during that
second championship run.
Kardashian, 29, is best known for starring with
her sisters Kim and Kourtney, and her mother,
Kris Jenner, in the long-running reality TV series
''Keeping Up With the Kardashians.''
She also runs an upscale clothing store with her
sisters and was featured in the short-lived
reality series with Odom, called ''Khloe & Lamar.''
The two were married in 2009 in a large
ceremony that was taped for the E! network,
following a whirlwind engagement that was also
filmed.
Kardashian laughed when critics began to say last
spring that the marriage wouldn't last.
''I think everyone said it wouldn't last, but I can
totally understand why,'' she said. ''We knew each
other for only 30 days and then we got
married. ... I just felt it and same with Lamar.
Thank God it worked because it very well
could've gone the other way.''
In recent episodes of ''Keeping Up With the
Kardashians,'' Odom hasn't been featured and the
show has hinted at marital issues.
TMZ first reported Friday's divorce filing.
