Lamar Odom appears to be in a bad spot this week.
Sabrina Parr announced this week that her engagement to the former NBA all-star was off in a message on her Instagram Story on Wednesday, Nov. 4. “Y’all know I’m honest and transparent so I have to be the first to let you guys know that I am no longer engaged to Lamar,” she wrote to her social media followers. “This has been a difficult decision for me to make but it is the best for myself and my children.”
Parr went on to claim that Odom “has some things that he alone needs to work through.” Though she did not get specific, Parr also noted, “I love him dearly but I am no longer able to be by his side while he seeks the help he so desperately needs. I wish him all the best and I am asking that you pray for everyone involved.”
The 40-year-old former Los Angeles Lakers star reacted to the news on Facebook:
Odom has been very open about his journey with addiction over the years following his 2015 hospitalization. In 2019, he released a memoir, Darkness to Light, in which he reflected on his struggles. At the time of the book’s release, Odom told his followers, “It took a lot of courage for me to get so raw and candid with you all but I wanted you guys to get MY true story!”
