Khloe Kardashian’s paternity has been a highly controversial topic of discussion. It is believed that the young Kardashian is not the biological daughter of Robert Kardashian. A conspiracy theory suggests that the 39-year-old is the daughter of the late O.J. Simpson. Although all the parties have repeatedly denied the rumors, several hints suggest that this can be a true possibility.
The conspiracy theory started soon after Kris Jenner confessed in her memoir Kris Jenner and All Things Kardashian in 2011 that she had an affair while being married to the late Robert Kardashian. As if it was enough to raise the buzz, a statement by Robert Kardashian’s second wife Jan Ashley brought the Kardashians face-to-face with one of the most high-profile controversies.
Is Khloe Kardashian Kris Jenner and O.J. Simpson’s daughter?
Recently, after the death of O.J. Simpson, social media also saw several users tagging Khloe Kardashian. The former NFL legend had an interesting connection to the Kardashian family. While Simpson served as the best man at Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner’s wedding, Robert Kardashian was also a close friend and defense attorney in his 1995 high-profile murder trial.
The conspiracy theory about O.J. Simpson being Khloe Kardashian’s father has always been a topic of debate among netizens. It started when Robert Kardashian’s second wife Jan Ashley stated to Star Magazine (via Radar Online) that Khloe Kardashian was not his biological daughter.
“Khloe is not his kid — he told me that after we got married. He just kind of looked at me and said it like it was a matter of fact. He said, ‘Well, you know that Khloe’s not really a Kardashian, don’t you?’ And I said…’OK,’ and that was it.”
Robert Kardashian’s third wife Ellen Pierson, who married him just two months before his unfortunate death also stated the same- “Robert did question the fact that Khloe was his. Any normal man would if they knew their wife had cheated on him.”
When the controversial theory was addressed in Season 7 episode 1 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kris Jenner called the rumors “ridiculous” but urged her daughter to take a DNA test. However, Khloe Kardashian rejected the proposal and admitted that she does not care what the people think.
On the other hand, O.J. Simpson also addressed the rumors in an episode of the Full Send podcast (via US Magazine). The ex-Buffalo Bills running back stated that the rumors are completely false- “The rumor ain’t true. It’s not even anywhere close to being true.” He added that Kris Jenner was cute and nice but he was never interested in her.
How did O.J. Simpson die?
It was reported by O.J. Simpson’s family that the former NFL star and actor passed away at the age of 76. In February 2024, NBC Sports stated that O.J. Simpson was suffering from prostate cancer and was undergoing treatment for it. However, he lost his life to the disease on April 10, 2024.
After a much-decorated NFL career, O.J. Simpson’s life took a drastic turn when he became the prime suspect in the murder of his former wife Nicole Brown, and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994. The highly publicized trial tarnished his reputation and also made a name for being one of the most significant legal battles in American history.
Despite being controversially acquitted in that case, he was found liable for the deaths in a civil lawsuit three years later. Later, he found himself in legal trouble once again in 2007 after being charged with armed robbery. It led him to be sentenced to imprisonment for 33 years. However, Simpson was released early on parole after 9 years.
According to NBC News, the late Ron Goldman’s father Fred Goldman commented that O.J. Simpson’s death is not a “great loss” to the world. Nicole Brown’s ex-boyfriend Keith Zlomsowitch also reacted similarly to the death of Simpson and thinks that some sort of justice has been served.
