Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom are separated, but neither has taken any step toward divorce ... sources tell TMZ.
Multiple sources familar with the situation tell us Khloe "effectively" declared separation when she threw Lamar out of the house Wednesday, after he refused her attempt at an intervention. TMZ broke the story ... Lamar has had a crack addiction problem for at least 2 years, and Khloe simply couldn't take it anymore.
We're told Khloe made it clear if Lamar did not get help -- the point of the intervention -- she wanted nothing to do with him anymore.
But we are also told neither Khloe nor Lamar has consulted a divorce lawyer ... at least not yet.
If and when they do file for divorce -- which we're told is likely -- there won't be much to fight over. Sources connected with the Kardashians tell us the couple signed a hard-fought prenup before they married.
We're told Kris Jenner was right in the middle of the prenup battle because she wanted to protect her daughter -- who tied the knot after a 4-week courtship.
This is actually really sad.
Praying for Lamar's recovery. Drug addiction is horrible and will tear a family apart. If Lamar gets the help that he needs, they can work on their issues. Them not getting a divorce lawyer shows that they still love each other.
I don't know if I believe the crack stuff. The Kardashians/Kris Jenner are professional media spinners and know how to manipulate press. They feed and plant stories often.
I am having a difficult time believing Lamar as an NBA player subject to mandatory periodic and random drug testing has been addicted to crack for years. I think they're really just trying to save face for Khloe and spin public sympathy in her favor as most tend to lack it for this family. Lamar just cheating probably wouldn't be enough to have the GP siding with Khloe; however, something more extreme like a hard drug addiction could.
This is sad, and I hope they work it out. I've always thought of Khloe as different from the rest of her family, and that her marriage was really gonna work.

I think this is just to drum up drama for the next season of their show. Kim and Kanye became parents, Kourtney got involved in a "heated" cheating/paternity scandal, Rob is still trying to lose the lbs, so obviously Khloe has to have some drama too.
