Khloe Kardashian joked that O.J. Simpson was her real father in front of mom Kris Jenner following past affair rumors in the latest episode of The Kardahians.
The 41-year-old TV personality referenced to the previous allegations when her older sister Kim gifted her their late father’s Bible – which the attorney had given to O.J. back in 1994 shortly after his arrest.
The SKIMS founder revealed that she had been the anonymous bidder who eventually acquired the Bible for $80,000. Kim then decided to gift it to Khloe during the family’s Easter celebration in Palm Springs.
Khloe brought up how her older sibling had to make multiple offers at the auction and expressed, ‘What a****** not to just give it to us. It’s proven he’s our dad, just give it to us.’
Kim replied with, ‘Well, it’s questionable between which one – between O.J. and dad,’ which prompted Khloe to joke that ‘either one’ could be her dad.
The mom-of-four – who was previously married to Kanye West – stated that they deserved to regain ownership of the Bible due to it being shared between their late father and O.J.

Khloe then added, ‘Both of my dads – give it to me.’
Their mother Kris was also in the same room where the conversation was taking place, but did not chime in.
Back in 2019, the momager shut down cheating allegations between her and O.J. as she was brought to tears during an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
‘They printed a story that I was sleeping with O.J.,’ Kris said, before labeling the former NFL star a ‘f***ing piece of s***.’
She further expressed that she was upset that the rumors came back to light on the 25th anniversary of Nicole Brown’s murder.
O.J. had been charged with the murder of Brown in 1994 but following a criminal trial – with Robert Kardashian being his defense attorney – he was acquitted the following year.
‘It’s really kind of pathetic that when rumors get started, the media gives it life and breath and on the anniversary of Nicole’s death. It’s so tasteless and disgusting.’
Kris added while becoming emotional, ‘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.’

O.J. had also denied the cheating allegations in a video shared to Twitter (now X) in 2019.
He explained that Robert had been ‘a brother’ to him and was also ‘a great guy.’
‘He met and married Kris and they really had a terrific time together when they were together. Unfortunately, that ended.’
O.J. then added, ‘But never, and I want to stress never, in any way, shape or form have I ever had any interest in Kris romantically, sexually. I never got any indication that she had any interest in me. So all of these stories are just bogus. Bad, tasteless.’
While he was acquitted during the 1995 murder trial, he was sentenced to prison after he was found guilty of armed robbery and kidnapping in 2008. He was released early in 2021 with no parole restrictions.
O.J. passed away at the age of 76 last year in April 2024 following a battle with prostate cancer.
Also during the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kylie Jenner joined the Easter festivities and asked questions about the Bible including if the notes inside were penned by Robert himself.
Khloe then jokingly replied, ‘No, that’s my other dad’s, O.J.,’ and the beauty mogul said, ‘Oh, that’s scary. Sorry.’

The previous episode of the Hulu series featured Kim’s failed attempts to purchase the Bible outside of an auction of items belonging to O.J. that was organized by his executor.
But Kim ultimately got the last laugh, as the billionaire was easily able to pay the final sale price, which was more than five times her initial offer of $15,000, and still well above the $30,000 she originally said she was willing to pay.
O.J.’s lawyer subsequently took a swipe at Kim – months after she episode was filmed – for failing to pass the bar exam, even as he was presumably unaware that she still got the Bible after initially being denied.
Kim announced her sneaky move while touring her home with her daughter Chicago, seven, while it was being renovated.
In a confessional interview, she said her son Saint, eight, had previously gone through the under-construction home to write positive messages on exposed beams that would eventually be covered over so that her kids could look back on the home as a happy a positive place.
And now it was Chicago’s turn to leave some uplifting sentiments around the house.
As they dropped by the kitchen and sat around the breakfast nook, Kim pulled out a thick envelope. Inside was a plastic bag containing her late father’s Bible, which was bound in brown leather.
Kim revealed that she had just received the Bible and hadn’t even had a chance to open it before showing it to Chicago.

‘So if anyone is wondering who won that O.J. Simpson auction, you best believe it’s me,’ she said, both to her confused daughter and the camera crew.
Kim went on to suggest that it was the executor of Simpson’s estate, Malcom LaVergne, who had ‘leaked’ her emails about wanting to bypass the auction to buy the Bible.
While examining the book and flipping through it, Kim made a startling discovery about the Bible’s provenance.
She had been led to believe that her father had purchased the Bible and given it to Simpson with an inscription to the accused murderer and NFL player.
But once she had it in her hands, Kim realized it was her father’s personal Bible with his name inscribed in gold lettering on the front cover.
She went on to explain that she was so determined to get the family heirloom after being turned down by Malcolm that she opted to bid on it anonymously.
She also came to another unexpected realization about the Bible as she looked through it for the first time.

Then Kim turned to Chicago and explained with a soft smile: ‘He went to jail. It’s a long story, I’ll tell you when you’re older.’
The shapewear mogul went on to share that she wanted to give the Bible as a gift to her sister Khloe, as it was Khloe who had first put the auction on her radar.
Chicago was apparently inspired by the Bible reveal, and she wrote ‘I [heart] you Jesus’ on a beam before the two left.
