Khloe Kardashian's ex collapses at Los Angeles club

Khloe Kardashian's ex-husband is recovering after passing out at a club in Los Angeles.

Former basketball star Lamar Odom collapsed in the VIP area at Bootsy Bellows early on Sunday (05Nov17) and video of the moment has gone viral.

The person who shot the video tells TMZ Sports he saw Odom drinking for several hours before he passed out, while club staff who rushed to his aid insist the sportsman never lost consciousness.

The former Los Angeles Lakers star has a history with substance abuse - he almost died from a drug overdose at a Nevada brothel in 2015.

Khloe, his then-estranged wife, dropped everything and rushed to his hospital bedside.

She also put the couple's divorce on hold as she helped Lamar in his recovery. The former pair was finally divorced in December (16).

Khloe is now dating Canadian basketball player Tristan Thompson and is rumored to be expecting his child. She has yet to confirm the baby news.
