The teenagers’ mom is Lamar’s ex-girlfriend, Liza Morales, whom he dated for more than 10 years before marrying estranged wife Khloé Kardashian in 2009. They also shared a son named Jayden, who died when he was six-months-old from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome in 2006.

The 35-year-old athlete remains in critical condition after reports claim he suffered multiple strokes and had cocaine in his system when he was discovered.

According to the owner of The Love Ranch, Dennis Hof, where Lamar had been partying before his hospitalization, the reality star spent a whopping $75,000 during his stay.

"The past week has been incredibly difficult," the 31-year-old writes in a message on her website. "I am so thankful to family, friends and fans, who have sent nothing but prayers and well wishes to Lamar."

She continued, "I also want to take a moment to thank everyone at Sunrise Hospital, including the amazing doctors and nurses for their kindness and diligent work. Under their amazing care, incredible strides have been made."

"You can never be prepared for an experience like this, but without the outpouring of love and endless prayers that Lamar has received and the strength I was given from my loved ones, it would be difficult to endure," she ended the note. "Thank you for your continued support. God is great!!!"
