Khloe Kardashian 'Thought Baby Could Save Marriage'

Khloe Kardashianis reported to have told pals that she hoped having a baby would help save her marriage to Lamar Odom.

The couple, who now appear to be parting company, had apparently been trying for a baby since they tied the knot in 2009 - with no joy.

Radar Online quotes a source as saying that Khloe "truly believed that if she got pregnant, it would cause Lamar to change his ways".

And the source added: "Khloe thought having a baby together would bring them closer together as a couple. It was all she ever wanted, to have Lamar's baby and have their own family."

But Lamar's subsequent inability to deal with his alleged substance abuse issues are reported to have made Khloe realise she was mistaken.

"Khloe now recognizes that bringing a baby into this relationship at this time would have been a disaster, and unfair to an innocent child," the source concluded.
