Khloe Kardashian announced that she's washing her hands of her ex-husband Lamar Odom in the wake of his controversial comments about his time being married to her.

On the November 12 episode of The Kardashians, the 42-year-old reality star declared that Odom, 47, is 'dead' to her in the wake of comments he made in the documentary Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom that she found to be 'really distasteful.'

The Netflix documentary details Odom's struggles with drug and alcohol addiction and his 2015 near-death experience, when he suffered multiple heart attacks, strokes and kidney failure.

Looking back at Odom's remarks in the documentary, Kardashian said: 'I’m not too thrilled about it because I’m watching the documentary, and I’m like, "Wait, I took time out of my life to sit here and do a favor for you. I’m not being paid. I’m doing this because I’m trying to be nice."'

Kardashian was particularly incensed after her ex-husband explained what it was about her and her family that made him want to marry her.

'I'm already Lamar Odom, and I'm just watching how she lives and [her family's] lifestyle. I'm like, "I know this is where I wanna be. This is how I wanna live,' he said in the documentary.

Kardashian admitted that she was offended by the suggestion that Odom wasn't only in it for love.

'You’re saying that you weren’t really in love with me. You married me just so you could be more popular in pop culture,' she continued. 'All these things, which is so weird. 

'Even if that is your truth, why don’t you say it without me being on the other side of these interviews?' Kardashian added.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star also was disappointed by Odom's 'really, really lame' comments in the wake of the documentary that appeared to downplay how much she had helped him amid his 2015 medical crisis.

In April, Jenna Bush Hager asked Odom on The Today Show if he thought his ex had saved his life. 

'In some ways,' the former NBA star replied, before he claimed that 'God saved my life. The lord saved my life, honestly.' He went on to admit Kardashian 'took care' of him, but said that 'God took care of me the most. What I came back from is like a medical miracle.'

In response to her ex, Kardashian said: 'I don’t need [him] to thank me. Just don’t talk about me. Don’t discredit me. 

'The bridge is burned and there’s no more rope left to throw over,' she added. 'So he is dead to me.'

'You’re saying that you weren’t really in love with me. You married me just so you could be more popular in pop culture,' Kardashian continued. 'All these things, which is so weird.

Kardashian added that her ex's dismissive remarks 'just solidif[y] what liars, con artists, cheats, thieves and trolls that men are. 

'I just don’t want to be involved,' she continued. 'Play with yourself, don’t play with me.' 

Kardashian and Odom tied the knot in 2009, just one month after they met at a party for Odom's then-teammate on the Los Angeles Lakers, Metta World Peace.

The social media star, who changed her name to Khloe Kardashian Odom, appeared on Keeping Up with the Kardashians with her new husband, and in 2011 they launched a spinoff series, Khloe & Lamar, which lasted two seasons.

Kardashian later filed for divorce in 2013.

During their marriage, Odom's drug and alcohol use had escalated precipitously, and in October 2015, he was found unconscious at the Las Vegas brothel the Love Ranch after using cocaine in the preceding days. 

The professional athlete went on to suffer multiple heart attacks and strokes, as well as kidney failure, before slipping into a coma lasting three days. 

The medical emergency occurred three months after Odom and Kardashian had both signed their divorce papers, but the dissolution had not yet been approved by a judge, so Kardashian withdrew her divorce filing later in October so that she could help make medical decisions for Odom as he recovered.

After his condition had improved significantly, Kardashian filed again for divorce in May 2016, and it was finalized by December of that year.

In Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom, Kardashian looked back on how her ex's drug use had gotten more serious during their relationship. 

'The drug buildup was getting worse and worse. There were many times Lamar would go for 12 hours or two days and escape rehab. He would go on a drug bender, and no one could find him,' she said, via Us Weekly. 

'I was either looking for him in alleys or looking for him in motels. He would have tinfoil cutouts or spoons, and he was freebasing things and leaving things everywhere. I remember needing to go to hotel rooms to clean up after him.'

Kardashian mused: 'I was such an enabler without knowing I was an enabler. But I just felt such a responsibility to cover this up, hold it together and protect it.'
