Kanye West, 36, was the one who set up his soon-to-be sister-in-law Khloé Kardashian, 29, with baseball player Matt Kemp, also 29, in November, according to the December 30 issue of UsWeekly.
'Matt's manager is one of Kanye's best friends,' a source tells the magazine. 'Kanye suggested his manager hook them up.'
After Khloé returned from her trip to Australia on November 22 and saw that video of husband Lamar Odom, 34, rapping about cheating 'on the DL' the reality star took her wedding rings off.
' The damage Lamar did to their relationship was beyond repair,' a source tells UsWeekly.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star - who was last seen exiting a gym in LA on Tuesday - was reportedly 'sad' but decided it was time for a 'fresh start.'
That's when Kanye got to work.It was three weeks before she filed for divorce from the former Clipper on December 13. So even though she was still technically married, her next beau was already being lined up.
'Khloé and Matt are in the early, early stages of a relationship and they're taking it really slow,' a source told TMZ on Tuesday.
'There's definitely something cooking between them.'
But the Dodger is not talking.
While out on Monday, he was asked about his love life. He said he was only focusing on baseball.
But then when he was questioned specifically about Khloé, 'He said even less,' reported TMZ.
Rumors of a Khloé/Matt romance heated up on Friday, the very day she filed for divorce from her NBA star husband, when she was seen following the slugger's black Bentley after a workout session.
According to RadarOnline, the reality star'sromance with Matt has reportedly been in swing for some time.
Kemps and Rihanna once dated.On December 1, Khloé and the Oklahoma-bred athlete both attended the John Legend show at LA's Nokia Theatre.
And then on Monday, they were together at Jay Z's concert in LA, which Lamar also attended separately and he didn't speak to his estranged wife.
Khloé was pictured in an all-black ensemble strolling into the venue in snakeskin high heels and with her head down.
On Thursday, Kemp added fodder to the fire when he posted a snapshot of the Kardashian family Christmas tree standing in Kris Jenner's Calabasas home,'Best time of the year!! It's gonna b a Cali Christmas this year,' he wrote in the caption.
The responses from his friends and followers came rushing back.
'I'm so happy for you both, wishing you the best,' one pal wrote.
Another chimed in, less favorably:
'Kardahians will do anything for more fame and relevancy. The fact they caught you in their web, I hope you enjoy the rest of your career. '
'Not the kardashians!!!!!!!' echoed a third fan.
HollywoodLife.comreported that Khloé already seems smitten with Matt, who dated Rihanna in 2010.
'Khloé and Matt are dating, but it's not serious yet,' a source told the site.
'But Khloé's already acting like she's in love... Khloé's like that; she loves hard, but she moves on quick.'
