Transcript

00:00 Nicole did feel, especially at the end of her life,

00:04 like she was trapped.

00:05 She said to me more than once that she thought that he would

00:11 kill her and get away with it.

00:13 All right.

00:14 Nicole and I were very good friends,

00:16 and OJ and Robert were best friends.

00:19 They were there when I gave birth to kids,

00:21 and I was there when she gave birth to her kids.

00:24 And, you know, it was that kind of a close-knit, wonderful,

00:27 you know, really warm relationship.

00:28 By 1992, Nicole and OJ had filed for divorce.

00:31 However, the family still remained close,

00:34 even vacationing together only six weeks

00:36 before Nicole's murder, as seen here.

00:38 [Typewriter clacking]

00:41 The day that Nicole was murdered

00:43 changed our lives forever.

00:44 Life as we knew it would never be the same.

00:47 Because not only did Chris lose her best friend,

00:49 OJ asked her ex-husband, Robert,

00:51 to be on his dream team defense,

00:53 which Chris later explained tore up their family.

00:55 He believed in what he was doing,

00:57 and he was asking us...

01:00 for his support.

01:03 Hold on.

01:04 Simpson was ultimately acquitted of the murder of Nicole

01:07 and her friend Ron Goldman.

01:08 The family told E! that at times,

01:10 it felt like they were taking sides.

01:11 Courtney and I would go to the trial with my dad,

01:14 and we'd sit on one side, and I remember looking over,

01:16 and my mom was on the other side,

01:17 sitting next to Nicole's parents,

01:19 and it was like just -- it was so much tension.

01:22 As if all that wasn't hard enough,

01:24 Chris would go on to be plagued with rumors for years

01:26 that she allegedly had an affair with OJ

01:28 and that Khloe is their alleged love child,

01:31 something Chris emotionally addressed

01:32 on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" in 2019.

01:35 It's bull[bleep] man.

01:36 Just...

01:38 After 25 years, you think that it just wouldn't be...

01:43 a thing.

01:46 OJ himself also denied the rumor

01:48 when he joined Twitter in 2019.

01:50 Man, I wouldn't have stressed, never,

01:52 in any way, shape, or form,

01:53 had I ever had any interest in Chris.

01:56 Khloe, like all the girls I'm very proud of,

01:58 just like I know Bob would be if he was here,

02:01 but the simple fact of the matter is she's not mine.

02:04 But through it all, Chris always wanted to keep the focus

02:07 on the good memories with her friend.

02:08 Nicole just wanted to figure out a way to be happy

02:12 and to raise her kids.

02:13 You know, she was -- that was her love.
