Khloe Kardashian Maintains "Intimacy" Is Not One Of The Reasons She Called Off Divorce From Lamar Odom

Setting the record straight!
Khloe Kardashian signed copies of her book Strong Looks Better Naked last night at The Grove in L.A. and didn't hold back on discussing the current state of her relationship with Lamar Odom, who remains hospitalized after overdosing at a Nevada brothel on October 13. Rumors began flying that the pair were reconciling after they called off their divorce days after his health crisis, but the reality star wants people to understand that that decision was made for reasons other than romance.
"I'm still married for a multitude reasons. But intimacy is not one of them," she told NBC News. The E! starlet also divulged that Odom is aware she is still dating NBA star James Harden.
The newly minted author acknowledges that her book tour is bad timing, but she can't put all her contractual obligations on hold to wait for Lammy to fully recover, as that could take months or even years. "As great as this book has been, it's just really bad timing. It's even uncomfortable for me sitting here doing something like this and I don't feel, like, guilty that I should be elsewhere right now — but I have to be here contractually. It's like a great thing . . . a fantastic thing happening in my life. Something else takes precedence, and I'm trying to manage through that and do the best of both," she bemoaned.
So is there any hope of reconciliation between the former (and now current!) husband and wife?
"Even if he was 100 percent better, he has a lot of other issues he has to deal with, I think, before taking on any relationship. He's doing better everyday, for sure, which is a blessing, but it's going to be a long road and he has to walk that road. It's going to be a long time," she dished to ET. "I wish people understood that's not in our thought process right now. There are too many other important things, too many medical things. It's not even in our brains thinking about us as a couple or having a relationship right now," she added to People.
We won't be happy until they're back together! Khlomar forever!
