Khloé Kardashian Breaks Silence on O.J. Simpson Paternity Rumors – See How Kris Jenner Reacted
What To Know
- Khloé and Kim Kardashian joked about longstanding rumors that O.J. Simpson is Khloé’s biological father during a recent episode of The Kardashians.
- The sisters made playful remarks while discussing their late father Robert Kardashian Sr.’s bible, which Kim had to purchase at an auction after it was previously given to Simpson.
- Kris Jenner, who has previously denied the affair rumors and called them “tasteless and disgusting,” did not respond to her daughters’ banter.
Khloé and Kim Kardashian addressed decades of speculation that the late, controversial football star O.J. Simpson is Khloé’s real father in the latest episode of The Kardashians.
Per People, the newest episode of the Hulu reality show saw Kim surprise her sister with her dad, Robert Kardashian Sr.’s, bible, which she had to bid on at an auction. Robert previously gifted the bible to Simpson in 1994 after the NFL star was charged with murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman.
“What a******* not to just give it to us,” Khloé said, referring to how Kim had to bid for the item. “It’s proven he’s our dad… just give it to us.”
That’s when Kim quipped, “Well, it’s questionable between which one – between O.J. and dad,” seemingly referencing the long-time rumors that their mom, Kris Jenner, had an affair with Simpson.
“I know,” Khloé responded, according to People, joking that “either one” could be considered her father.

Kim said that her sister deserves the bible “even more” because it was shared “between both” Robert and Simpson. Robert, an attorney who died in 2003, represented Simpson during the infamous murder trial.
Khloé agreed with Kim, saying, “Both of my dads – give it to me!”

The references continued when Kylie Jenner turned up and asked whether the handwriting in the bible was Robert’s. “No, that’s my other dad’s, O.J.’s,” Khloé replied.
Kris was at the table during the conversation, but she didn’t comment or respond to her daughters’ playful banter; instead, she kept her eyes on her phone. However, she has spoken out against the rumors in the past.
In a 2019 episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, a teary-eyed Kris commented on the speculated affair after the topic re-emerged on the anniversary of Nicole’s death.
“They printed a story that I was sleeping with O.J.,” Kris, a long-time family friend of Nicole, said in the episode, per People. “That f****** piece of s***. It’s really kind of pathetic.”
“After 25 years, you’d think it just wouldn’t be a thing. It’s just lie after lie after lie after lie, and it’s only so much that one human being can take,” she added, saying the rumors are “tasteless and disgusting.”
