Lamar Odom’s life is back under the microscope. 

Netflix’s “Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom” premiered this week, revisiting the former NBA star’s rise in career, his battle with addiction, near-fatal overdose, and the relationships that defined some of his most turbulent years. 

The documentary has particularly brought renewed attention to Odom’s past with Khloé Kardashian, whose whirlwind 2009 marriage to him became one of reality TV’s most talked-about relationships.

The two married just a month after meeting, later starred in Khloé & Lamar, and eventually divorced after years marked by addiction, infidelity, and repeated attempts to help him get sober. 

In case you did not have time to watch, here are ten explosive revelations from Lamar’s new documentary.  

1. He suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks during his 2015 overdose. The documentary lays out the scale of the medical emergency in stark terms. 

2. The bed from the Love Ranch, where he overdosed later, ended up in a Las Vegas museum. Coverage tied to the documentary says the bed was later displayed at Zak Bagans’ Haunted Museum. 

3. Lamar’s father battled heroin addiction, and his mother died when he was young. The film revisits the family instability and loss that shaped his early life. 

4. He also lost an infant son to SIDS before his Lakers era. The documentary frames that tragedy as one of the deepest wounds of his life. 

5. His children did not attend his wedding to Khloé and had not met her beforehand. The film includes his children explaining why they stayed away from the ceremony. 

6. Much of Lamar’s family was not at the wedding either. His side says they were largely left out of the 2009 event, apart from a childhood friend. 

7. The "Khloé & Lamar" show was Lamar’s idea. The documentary also says he admitted that being part of the Kardashian world felt like a “power trip” at the time. 

8. He nearly missed the Lakers’ 2009 championship parade after partying the night before. The film revisits that moment as one more sign of how messy things already were behind the scenes. 

9. Khloé says she was doing private “clean-up operations” during their marriage. The documentary and related interviews revisit the extent to which she was trying to manage his addiction in secret. 

10. Lamar says he still wants to return to basketball in a different way. By the end of the documentary, he is talking about going back to school and one day coaching at the college or NBA level.
