Lamar Odom is desperate to reconcile with Khloé Kardashian.

A source told Hollywood Life: "[The split] makes it that much easier for him to get back with her and be her husband.

"He wasn't too fond of that rapper anyway and thought he was a sucker

- Khloé's rebound man!"

The 30-year-old television personality split from the basketball player in December last year after four years of marriage.

The source continued: "Real love always wins in the end. He knew that wasn't going to last.

"French was there so she could get her mind off Lamar. We all know that. He did his job, played the role he was supposed to play, and now he's gone. Just like that!"

However, Khloé's mother, Kris Jenner, is reportedly worried that the couple will now reconcile their differences.

A friend of the family said: "Kris thinks Khloé is very vulnerable right now and the last thing she needs to do is jump back into a relationship with Lamar.

"Kris always feared this would happen because she knew, as Khloé's mother, that her daughter wasn't over Lamar. Call it a mother's instinct."
