Star denies reports she’s expecting her first child with Lamar Odom

Earlier this week, reports had it that the Kardashian clan was about to get another member in the following months, as Khloe and her husband Lamar Odom had just learned they were about to become parents. Speaking with reporters the other day, Khloe rubbished talk of pregnancy by saying she was not with child, but only fat, as People magazine can confirm.

When word got out that Khloe was pregnant with her first child with Lamar, speculation also began making the rounds as to how she’d handle the matter in the media and whether she had any plans of cashing in on the pregnancy. Certainly so, several insiders claimed, for Khloe was holding off an announcement precisely so that she could make it in front of the cameras, a thing that Lamar was strongly opposed to.

“While Khloe Kardashian’s family members have been denying talk that the reality star is expecting – Kardashian herself finally wants to put rumors to rest. At least for now. ‘I’m just fat,’ Kardashian, 25, coyly told reporters clamoring for pregnancy news at a Los Angeles Lakers game Thursday at LA’s Staples Center. Still, Kardashian, who was there to cheer on hubby Lamar Odom as his team took on the Boston Celtics in an NBA finals matchup, played up her maternal instincts. ‘It’s exciting and an honor to see Lamar here,’ she said. ‘I’m like the proud mom, like, cheering him on and screaming’,” People writes.

“Taking her courtside seat near brother Rob and sister Kourtney, Kardashian spent the evening kidding with fans. She also raved to People about her marriage to Odom. ‘We’re doing great,’ she said. But when asked – point-blank – if she’s expecting, the reality star demurred to comment directly. ‘I’m just watching the game,’ she said,” the magazine further writes. In separate interviews, Khloe said she and Lamar are just a regular couple enjoying their life together – and nothing more for the time being.

As we also informed you a few days ago, sources spilling the beans to the media on Khloe’s reported pregnancy claimed that, in accepting to start a family with Lamar she’d been inspired by her sister Kourtney, who gave birth to a son, Mason, a few months back.
