Almost his entire adulthood, Odom struggled with the ordeal and he didn't saw any end to it. But then he met Khloe Kardashian, his first and only wife and at that time he thought she may stir up his bad habits. Though it never changed anything as Lamar continued with his addiction and even slept around with other women all the while being married to Khloe, he himself admitted.
