'I'm not back with him': Khloe Kardashian finally breaks her silence over Lamar Odom reconciliation rumours... as she explains the real reason for calling off their divorce


Khloe Kardashian has spoken out for the first time since her estranged husband Lamar Odom was hospitalised following a drugs binge at a brothel in Nevada.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has, in an interview with People magazine, referred to the constant rumours that she and the former NBA star will reunite after she called off their divorce.
But she has confessed that they will not be getting back together just yet, despite holding off on proceedings - she only did this in order to be able to make medical decisions for him while in a life-threatening condition.

'I pulled back on the divorce because there is no rush for it,' the 31-year-old told the magazine. 'For medical decisions and a ton of other things, it's just smarter that it's put on hold. 
'But that does not mean I'm back with Lamar. It's not even in our brains to think about us having a relationship. Only time will tell.' 
Although she denied a reconciliation - a topic that has been heavily-contested over the past couple of weeks while she remains by his bedside - Khloe did confess to still having strong feelings for her ex.
'I loved him always, and I will always love him. I don't believe love is fickle. I believe when you love someone, you are allowed to love from afar. You don't have to be with that person in order to love him.'

'Only time will tell': Although Khloe has denied she is back with Lamar after his life-threatening health drama, she has suggested that it's something that could happen in the future
Khloe and Lamar, 35, tied the knot in 2009 after a whirlwind one-month romance, and their wedding was broadcast on the family's reality TV show.
But their union fell apart and, in December 2013, Khloe filed for divorce.
And, although the couple went through divorce proceedings in July this year, the papers were not yet officially signed off due to a backlog of papers in the city of Los Angeles, meaning the divorce wasn't finalised. 
Khloe's lawyer, Laura Wasser, appeared before a Los Angeles judge last Wednesday to withdraw the papers, a request which was approved.

Holding off: A week ago, the 31-year-old asked her lawyer to call off the divorce proceedings with Lamar, which began in July but have yet to be finalised

The one-page document was submitted without prejudice, meaning the divorce papers can be refiled at a later date, according to multiple reports. 
According to search warrant records, Lamar is believed to have overdosed on cocaine and other drugs before he was found unconscious at the Love Ranch brothel in Crystal, Nevada on October 13.
He was hospitalised in Las Vegas and transferred to Los Angeles, where his family later revealed that he was undergoing therapy and showing improvement. 
Authorities haven't ruled out the possibility of taking action against the brothel or the sportsman.
Khloe went to his bedside in Nevada as soon as the news broke, where she has remained for much of the past two weeks, showing her devotion to her ex.
And her fledgling romance with NBA star James Harden is said to have ended in the wake of recent goings-on.
