“Life doesn’t get easier but I promise you that life will make you stronger,” Khloe wrote in her Instagram message on June 15, with a photo of a woman crying accompanying the message. Khloe is clearly heartbroken, and our hearts hurt because she’s hurting.

It seems as if Khloe’s message is also her way of reaching out to Lamar. He has suffered so much loss in his life. His mother, Cathy Mercer, died of colon cancer when he was 12, the grandmother who helped raise him, Mildred Mercer, died in 2004. His 7-month-old son, Jayden, became a victim of a tragic cot death in 2006.
