    Lamar Odom is being sued for unpaid child support

    The 41-year-old former basketball player - who was previously married to Khloe Kardashian - has been accused by his ex-partner Liza Morales of not paying child support for their kids in almost a year


    In new court documents obtained by RadarOnline, 'Basketball Wives' star Liza claimed she and children Destiny Odom, 23, and Lamar Odom Jr., 19 are at risk of being evicted from their Lower Manhattan apartment because they cannot pay the rent due to Lamar's "unilateral stoppage of all support."

    The documents state: "In June 2020, Lamar stopped providing any support save for sporadic amounts sent directly to LJ, placing their son in a very difficult situation."

    Liza claims that LJ was unable to attend a four-year college because of the financial issues and that he was forced to resort to a community college.

    However, Lamar has denied all of the accusations.

    His representative told the New York Post: "Before Lamar signed up to do the docuseries on his recovery a year and a half ago and the Celebrity Boxing match, he coordinated deals for Morales to be financially stable during that period. He knew that Morales was seeking her own position in the industry, so he helped her gain an offer with a sponsor close to $100,000. Morales decided to want more and damaged the deal, while refusing any more help before he went away.

    "During the past year and a half Odom knew he had to step away from work in order to get his mental health and addiction in order. Odom loves his children and wants them to see their father win a difficult battle.

    Lamar knows he owes it to his children and community to get better in order to continue to be a provider."
