While America is celebrating the new couple in town, 2x NBA champion Lamar Odom decided to use his words wisely to speak about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The former Los Angeles Lakers star shared a piece of advice for the Kansas City Chiefs superstar on his new relationship. Well, Odom’s history with marriage and relationships might not be too promising, but he has enough experience and regrets to give valuable advice. 

However, Odom’s advice sounded more like a warning. The ex-husband of Khloe Kardashian knows the best about these situations. Considering his past, it is only fair that Odom gives Kelce some advice. 

Lamar Odom requests Travis Kelce to “be strong”

The media attention on Kelce could be too overwhelming for him. Fans are more bothered about the 34-year-old’s new love life than his performance. In fact, even Kelce felt the NFL media was getting too deep into his personal life. The tight-end, in a conversation with his brother, shared, “They’re overdoing it a little bit, for sure…Especially my situation.”

In these times, a bit of advice could be really helpful. Well, we have Lamar Odom for it. The 44-year-old shared, “My advice would be to be strong and stay by her and be as close to her as possible.”

He added, “There are going to be millions of women that want to taste what Taylor Swift is tasting and it can be overwhelming because we’re men. He just has to be strong and stick by his girl and he’ll be alright.” 

Why did Lamar Odom think so? Just like Kelce and Swift, Odom and Khloe Kardashian had heavy media attention when the two got together in 2009.

Their marriage was the talk of the town, and America admired the couple. Later in 2014, Kardashian announced she had filed for a divorce, which turned out to be a heartbreak.

In this love saga, the 2x champion had a few regrets as well. He shared in an interview, “I wish I could have been more of a man. It still bothers me to this day. But regret is something we have to learn to live with.” Well, now you understand why Odom gave this advice!
