Khloe Kardashian Infuriated By Rob Kardashian’s Struggle With Depression, Weight War & Lamar Odom Crisis [Video]
Khloe Kardashian is concerned about her brother, Rob Kardashian, who has has become known as the loner of the Kardashian clan. Increasingly struggling with weight, depression, and even alleged drug abuse, Rob seemed to lack focus. Keeping Up With The Kardashians “momager” Kris Jenner even staged an intervention on the show after he gained a reported 100 pounds.
But now reality TV star Khloe is taking it beyond an intervention. Rob’s sister, who has been by the side of her husband Lamar Odom as he fights for life after a reported drug overdose, says that Rob has been creating an increasing cause for concern among the Kardashians, revealed Us Weekly.
Although the reality TV star describes her brother as a great guy, she also admits she’s frustrated.
“[Rob is] charming, charismatic, everything. That’s what’s so infuriating. I’m like, ‘Where is your will to live life? Let’s be around people!’ “
In particular, the reality star is concerned about the depression and weight gain that continued to serve as daily battles for Rob. Kardashian confessed that she alternates between babying him, providing patience, and blowing up.
“I have my moments and I do snap. I’m like, ‘What’s your excuse?’… I can’t win life for Rob. I have to wait until [he’s] ready to do it for himself. It’s sad, because he’s only wasting his life.”
Rob and Odom once were best friends. But after his sister split with the former sports hero in 2013, Rob was devastated. His sister describes her once-estranged husband (the two have reconciled for now as he battles his health) as a “father figure” for Rob after their own father passed away when Rob was 16.
“Bruce [now Caitlyn Jenner] was great, but he was going through his own things that none of us understood at the time,” recalled Khloe.
And so after Kardashian’s own husband left, Rob felt abandoned, says his sister.
“I think Rob didn’t know where to go,” added the 31-year-old reality TV star.
Kardashian also shared that she even volunteered to help Rob with healthy meal preparation when she realized that he had gained so much weight, reported People.
Rob lives with his sister, so she feels her offer would be easy to accept.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way,” added Kardashian of her live-in brother. “I’ve been working on my patience. I’ve been really trying… I’ve offered to get a chef.”
And her goal for Rob’s future is simple. The reality star wants to see her brother find joy in his life and restore his health.
For now, Rob has made some improvement in terms of returning to social media like his Kardashian sisters, pointed out E News.
Referencing his weight, Rob blamed his fondness for milkshakes.But is his sister, Kourtney Kardashian, helping or hurting Rob by posting a throwback photo of her brother where he’s skinny and in an embarrassing pose, questioned Hollywood Life.
Turning to Instagram, Kourtney allegedly was sharing her love, but with his hand in his pants, it’s questionable as to her real intent.
But what is known is that Rob truly worries about Lamar because they were once so close. Kardashian is even willing to donate a kidney, according to an insider.
“Rob is willing to do whatever it takes to help Lamar recover. If that means donating a kidney then so be it, Rob has a big heart and he’s willing to step up to help his friend,” said that source.But that would necessitate tests to determine the compatibility needed for a transplant, as well as determine whether Rob’s kidneys are sufficiently healthy for the donation.
Thus far, Rob reportedly has shed 15 pounds, but Kim Kardashian isn’t impressed.
“Do I think he smokes weed, drinks beer, hangs out and plays video games with his friends all day long?” asked Kim rhetorically. “Yes.”
