American TV personality Karlie Reed’s relationship history spans from pro Athletes like NBA Point Guard John Wall, Former NBA star Lamar Odom, to her ex-husband, CEO of NowThat’s TV, Teleau Belton, who was once arrested for domestic violence against Kalie.
Karlie Redd, best known for her long-standing role on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, has built a personal life as eventful and headline-making as her TV career.
Over the years, she’s been romantically linked to a variety of entertainers, producers, and notably, professional athletes.
One of her most notable relations, which got quite a bit of attention, was with “former NBA champion Lamar Odom”, although both just said they were just friends.
In April 2021, Lamar Odom was spotted with Karlie Redd at Yandy Smith’s birthday party and again at the promotional event for his celebrity boxing match.
Shortly after, Karlie and Lamar appeared together at several Atlanta events, leading impatient speculation that they were dating.
However, on The Wendy Williams Show, Lamar clarified that they were just friends and he was happily single at the time, which ultimately brought an end to their rumored relationship. On the interview, he stated;
“We’re friends… Really good friends, getting to know each other… As friends. No”
Following this, Karlie herself addressed the rumors via social media, stating that she wasn’t dating Lamar and urging the media to stop associating them as a couple.
Moreover, it was not the first time she was linked with a sports figure. In 2014, she was with NBA point guard John Wall. However, their romance was brief and mainly under the radar.
