*Lamar Odom’s son Lamar Morales-Odom Jr. says he is “hurt” by the surprise news of the basketball player’s engagement to Sabrina Parr, as he learned about it the same way the rest of us did… by reading the announcement online.
“Last night I was emotional seeing my father got engaged through social media,” the 17-year-old wrote on Instagram Tuesday, alongside a childhood photo with his sister, Destiny, and their dad, Us Weekly reports. “I was hurt and caught off guard.”
He continued, “At the end of the day, I am a teenager, that is becoming a young man. I have to be responsible for what I post, I have nothing but love for my dad and want what’s best for him.”
