Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom’s marriage may have fizzled out years ago, but it appears there isn’t any bad blood between the two. 

During Wednesday’s episode of Complex’s Everyday Struggle, the former NBA star opened up about his current relationship with his ex-wife, whom PEOPLE recently confirmed is expecting her first child with her boyfriend, Cleveland Cavaliers player Tristan Thompson. 

Though he didn’t comment on the pregnancy, Odom, 37, seemed to indicate the two are on good terms, though they don’t speak regularly.

When asked if he was ‘still cool’ with Khloe, he replied, ‘I mean, from a distance.’ 

‘I wish her well,’ he added. ‘Still got love for her.’ 

Odom also revealed that he’s drifted apart from Kanye West, who is married to his ex-wife’s sister Kim Kardashian West.

‘Kanye is a good dude,’ he said. ‘He was there for me when I was in a coma, he was there for me when I woke up.’

In July 2015, both stars finally signed divorce papers, but because the judgment had not yet been entered in court by the time Odom was hospitalized, they were technically still legally married. As a result, Kardashian — who was making all of Odom’s medical decisions — ultimately opted to call off their protracted divorce proceedings. 

Kardashian filed for divorce for a second time in late May 2016, and the proceedings were officially finalized in December.
