In October 2015, NBA legend Lamar was hospitalised after being found unconscious at Nevada’s Love Ranch brothel.

He was placed on life support after suffering several strokes and kidney failure, spending four days in a coma.

But while Lamar has made a miracle recovery, the Kardashians were devastatingly told that he had passed away after somebody cruelly set up a fake account with the news.



In a teaser from the 10th anniversary special of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kendall Jenner admitted that the hardest day of the reality show was when she was falsely told Odom had died.

She told executive producer Ryan Seacrest: ‘I landed in London and the first text that popped into my phone was from Kim and it had said that Lamar passed away. And I immediately started sobbing on the plane.

‘Then I got the next text came through, saying, “OK, actually, he’s OK, he’s alive, but he’s not doing well”. So that’s why I was so upset, because I wanted to be there to say goodbye.’


 
Kim explained: ‘Someone had made a fake account and emailed me the wrong information. Khloe screamed on the plane.’

Khloe, who married Lamar in 2009, said: ‘On the plane, they said he died. Someone faked it. I was screaming.

‘But to think, and to go through the motions as if someone has passed away is the most traumatic thing to do, and then to know they’re really alive … it was too many emotions, I think, for any of us to handle.’
