Reality TV star Khloe Kardashian says she took to gymming to distract herself during a rough patch with basketball player and now estranged husband Lamar Odom.
The two split two years back.
The 30-year-old "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star said she decided to concentrate on getting fitter after the split than partying because Khloe knew she would be houned by the media where she would go, reported People magazin.
"When me and Lamar were having issues, I decided to channel my energy into working out. If I went out with my girlfriends, I would be hounded by paparazzi and made to feel more humiliated.
"The gym was my only refuge. I could put music on and dance around with my girlfriends and be silly.
