Khloe Kardashian, Lamar Odom Divorce: Why $2M Stopped Reality Star from Leaving Husband

Khloe Kardashian has been quietly dealing with the drama surrounding her husband Lamar Odom. She hasn't spoken out publicly about his alleged drug addiction or cheating rumors but has gave subtle hints that she's done with the marriage.

It's been reported that Kardashian wasn't quite ready to file for divorce because she was still holding out hope that Odom would get help. Now a new report is surfacing that the reality star has been waiting to divorce her husband because of her iron-clad prenuptial agreement.

According to Hollywood Life, Kardashian's prenuptial agreement with Odom stipulates that she is guaranteed to receive $500,000 for every year of marriage, plus two cars. If she makes it to four years of marriage, the document allegedly states Kardashian would get an extra $2 million.

Kardashian and Odom just celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary on Sept. 27. The day of the anniversary a report surfaced that the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star had reportedly told Odom that she was going to spend their anniversary filling out divorce papers.

Filing for divorce after their four-year mark would leave Kardashian with at least $4 million. This new rumor leaves people wondering whether Kardashian really wanted to stick by her man or if she was trying to wait it out until she could get the extra money.

"She called him on their anniversary and told him she'd be filling for divorce," a source told US Weekly. "She wanted to give him fair warning. Khloe was very firm. She said she will be filing soon and she thinks it's best they move on."

The source also said that Kardashian told Odom that she really hopes he does get the help he needs but wanted to get on with her life. Reportedly her assistant has already packed up and moved the athlete's stuff out of the house and dropped it off at the downtown Los Angeles apartment he's been staying at.
