Caitlyn Jenner Offers Blunt, Two-Word Response on Death of O.J. Simpson

Reactions to the death of O.J. Simpson have been varied, to say the least. The Heisman Trophy-winning NFL star behind a legacy as being one of the greatest running backs of all time, which was overshadowed by his controversial acquittal for the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman.

So while some remembered Simpson's athletic accomplishments, others celebrated or made jokes in the wake of the 76-year-old succumbing to his battle with prostrate cancer. Caitlyn Jenner is decidedly a part of the latter group, as the former Olympian took to social media on Thursday afternoon to comment on Simpson's passing. And she certainly did not mince words.

"Good riddance," Jenner posted on X, followed by the hashtag #OJSimpson.

But lest anyone forget, Jenner also has a complicated family history with Simpson. The 74-year-old was previously married to Kris Jenner, whose first husband was Robert Kardashian, Simpson's close friend and attorney who served on his defense "Dream Team" during the high-profile murder trial that spanned 11 months from Nov. 9, 1994 to Oct. 3, 1995. The two were so close that Simpson was even a groomsmen at the couple's 1978 wedding.

However, Kris and Robert divorced in 1991, and she was remarried to Jenner at the time of the double murder and subsequent trial. The family suffered emotional turmoil as a result of the ensuing media circus.

In 2015, on the 20th anniversary of the acquittal, Kris voice support for her late friend in an LMN documentary, The Secret Tapes of the O.J. Case: The Untold Story.

“At the end of Nicole's life, I think she finally was at a place where she knew she had to be more vocal with what was going on and she was in trouble,” Jenner said at the time, referring to the couple's tumultuous relationship. “The one thing she would tell all of us by the time, you know, it got to that level was, 'He's going to kill me and he's going to get away with it.'"

"I will always feel guilty that I didn't pay more attention and didn't speak up when I thought anything was wrong or asked her more, 'Do you want to talk about it?'" she added.

Though Kris and Caitlyn likewise divorced in 2015, it's clear that she's still firmly on her ex-wife's side regarding Simpson's perceived guilt.
