Khloe Kardashian 'splits' from boyfriend James Harden as she vows to stay by Lamar Odom's bedside... after her estranged husband told her: 'I love you'

Khloe Kardashian has put her relationship with boyfriend James Harden on hold, according to reports.

The romance hiatus comes as a result of the recent goings-on around Khloe's estranged husband Lamar Odom, who was left fighting for his life after being found unconscious from a near-fatal overdose in a Las Vegas brothel.

It has also been claimed that Lamar, 35, managed to muster the strength to tell his ex that he 'loves her', after waking from a coma.

According to TMZ, the 31-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has underlying deep feelings for Lamar - who she married in 2009, but is now separated from - which has caused her to rethink her new relationship. 

Khloe's union with NBA player James, 26, came into question when she flew out to visit her former spouse in hospital immediately after he was taken there at the weekend.

She had vowed to support him as he recovered following his brush with death, causing an obvious conflict with her current relationship, especially as it's thought ex-NBA star Lamar will take months to be nursed back to health. 

Meanwhile, Lamar has now been discharged from Sunrise hospital in Las Vegas, just under one week since he was found unconscious from a near-fatal overdose in a brothel.
