Liza Morales, Lamar Odom’s high school sweetheart, finally spoke out about the moment she found out that her ex got married to the reality star Khloé Kardashian.

“It was shocking. I couldn’t escape it,” Morales told PEOPLE.

She opened up just days before Netflix releases Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom, a documentary about the basketball star’s life, fame, struggles and relationships.

A big part of the film looks back on his early romance with Morales.

The couple met in high school and Odom proposed to her when they were just 20 and they delayed marriage but went on to have three children together.

But tragedy happened in 2006 when their six-month-old son Jayden died from sudden terrifying syndrome.

The loss, however, left a heavy effect on their relationship and slowly, they went their separate ways.

The fashion designer went on to add that she was blindsided when Odom’s relationship with Khloé Kardashian became public in 2009.

“It was a text message and then a phone call from Lamar, ‘By the way, I’m getting married,’” she recalled.

“Then it was everywhere. It wasn’t just that he got married—it was how it happened. It was rushed, and it hurt.”

Still, Morales shared that she and Odom have reached to a better place now. “It took years. I had to work on myself and heal.”

Actor Lee Sang-bo, known for his roles in Bad Love, Miss Monte Cristo, and Graceful Empire, has died at the age of 44.

OSEN confirmed that Lee’s funeral has been arranged at Room 3 of the Central Funeral Hall in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province.

The funeral procession will depart on March 29 at 10:30 a.m., with burial to follow at the Pyeongtaek City Memorial Hall.

Who was Lee Sang-bo?

Born in 1981, the South Korean actor debuted in 2006 with KBS2’s Invisible Man Choi Jang-su and went on to appear in numerous dramas.

His career faced turbulence in 2022 when he was investigated for alleged drug use.

The case was later dismissed after forensic analysis confirmed he had been prescribed medication for depression.

Lee returned to acting with Graceful Empire in 2023, determined to rebuild his reputation.

In addition to acting, Lee recently opened a meat restaurant in Pyeongtaek, where he personally greeted and served customers.

Friends and patrons described him as warm and ‘friendly neighbour’.

Following his death, the restaurant has temporarily closed, with his cousin (co-manager of the restaurant) expressing grief over the loss, “My heart is heavy.”
