Lamar Odom to Rehab: NBAer Checks Self In, Khloe Kardashian Unaware?

Khloe Kardashian allegedly found out that her husband Lamar Odom entered a rehab facility through news reports as the couple continues to work on their troubled marriage.

Previous rumors had stated that Khloe gave Lamar an ultimatum: get help or our marriage is over. The news of Odom reportedly entering a treatment facility comes on the heels of his DUI arrest.

Lamar Odom was arrested Friday morning at 3:54 a.m. under the suspicion of driving a vehicle while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, according to reports. The NBA player and husband of reality TV star Khloe Kardashian has been the subject of rampant drug and divorce rumors recently.

Lamar Odom's arrest came while he was on the 101 Freeway in San Fernando Valley, Calif. His white Mercedes SUV was driving in a "serpentine manner" and too slowly at 50 mph, according to the police report. Cops attempted to pull him over, but the NBA free agent didn't respond to officers until three exits later, when he finally slowed down and stopped.

This latest development was a result of weeks of alleged drug abuse by Odom dating back at least a year. Khloe looks like she was also kept in the dark regarding Lamar's alleged drug use after a report surfaced revealing the Khloe's brother, Rob, knew about his brother-in-law's struggles.

"[He has] known about Lamar's drug addiction for over a year. How could he not as he has lived under the same roof with Lamar and Khloe? Rob even spent a significant amount of time with Khloe and Lamar when he was traded to the Dallas Mavericks," a family insider told Radar Online of the rumors.

Unconfirmed reports have stated that Odom has been allegedly addicted to the painkiller OxyContin and sleeping agent Ambien for at least a year.

"Rob isn't a party animal like Lamar, and drugs just aren't his scene. The two used to be very close, but have drifted apart because Lamar has been abusing Oxy and cheating on Khloe. Rob has continued to live at the Tarzana mansion to support Khloe, he really has her back," the source told Radar.
