Lamar Odom thinks a "miracle" saved his life — not Khloe Kardashian.
The former sports star suffered a near-fatal overdose in 2015, and Lamar has now downplayed his ex-wife's role in his recovery.
Lamar — who was married to Khloe from 2009 until 2016 — told the Today show: "God saved my life. My lord saved my life, honestly."
Lamar, 46, suffered six heart attacks and 12 strokes and was in a coma for three days before requiring months of rehabilitation.
Khloe, 41, assisted with his recovery after pausing their divorce proceedings.
When host Sheinelle Jones told Lamar that a lot of people felt Khloe "rode hard" for him, he acknowledged that she "took care" of him.
He added: "God took care of me the most. What I came back from is like a medical miracle."
The pair's relationship was revisited in Netflix's Untold: The Death and Life of Lamar Odom, in which Khloe opened up about Lamar's struggles.
She said: "The drug buildup was getting worse and worse. There were many times Lamar would go for 12 hours or two days and escape rehab. He would go on a drug bender and no one could find him.
