Khloe Kardashian Turns to Rapper The Game Amid Lamar Odom Marital Woes
Khloe Kardashian is reportedly receiving emotional support from rapper The Game following reports claiming her marriage to Lamar Odom is crumbling.
The reality TV star, 29, previously joined The Game's 60DaysofFitness team and while they are believed to have established a close bond in recent months, their relationship is said to be platonic. The rapper, whose real name is Jayceon Terrell Taylor, is engaged to the mother of two of his children, Tiffney Cambridge.
On Saturday Kardashian and the rapper were photographed amongst mutual friends enjoying a night of bowling.

"[Khloe] has been turning to The Game during her marriage woes with Lamar. He has been a great friend to her, and very supportive of Khloe," a source told RadarOnline.com.
"He is constantly playing practical jokes on Khloe, trying to make her laugh. He seems to be the only person in her life that can make her smile," the source revealed. "He will continue to offer his support to Khloe."
The rapper, 33, is also said to be close to Kardashian's family, particularly her younger brother Robert. He has reportedly been spending more time with "Khloe's brother, Rob. They are very tight, and the entire family loves Jayceon," the source said.
The "Marrying The Game" star previously denied reports claiming his relationship with Kardashian is romantic, insisting the E! star is "like a sister."
"Khloe is my friend. She is like a sister. We have never and will never be sleeping together. Lamar is my homie and her husband and I wish people wouldn't spread such false rumors," the rapper told TMZ.com.
Odom, 33, reportedly moved out of his marital home in August in the wake of cheating reports and drug addiction rumors. Kardashian is believed to have pushed for the move as the pair is now separated, TMZ reported.
In July two women came forward claiming they had extramarital affairs with the NBA veteran and within days drug addiction rumors surfaced. Kardashian is said to be struggling emotionally following their separating and her mother Kris Jenner, 57, revealed that despite her daughter's struggles she is staying strong.
"She's very sensitive and she loves really hard and she feels with all of her soul," Jenner told E!. "But she also has the ability to put that game face on and go out there in the world and do what she needs to do... she is resilient but she is very strong."
