Kris Jenner has opened up about the heartbreaking last conversation that she had with Nicole Brown Simpson – just one day before she was brutally murdered.
Mom-of-two Nicole was famously killed at age 35 alongside her friend Ron Goldman in June of 1994, and when her estranged husband OJ Simpson was arrested for the crime, the trial completely captured the nation.
Now, as the 30-year anniversary of her devastating death approaches, Lifetime is gearing up to release a new documentary about the incident and the events that followed, entitled The Life and Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson.
In the new movie, Nicole’s close friend Kris, 68, details the harrowing final words that she exchanged with the socialite.
According to an exclusive clip obtained by TMZ, their last chat revolved around their mutual friend Faye Resnick.

Kris explained that Faye, who has been open about her past struggles with drug addiction, had relapsed two days before Nicole’s passing – and Nicole had encouraged her to go back to rehab.
‘Nicole said, “OK we are gonna go visit Faye and make sure someone is there for her every day,”‘ Kris recalled. ‘She made a schedule for us.’
On the day before her murder, Kris said Nicole went to see Faye and called her afterwards to give her an update.
‘She said, “Faye’s having a good day so I’m leaving. Your day is tomorrow.” That’s the last time I spoke to her,’ continued the Kardashian matriarch.
In the clip, Faye, who went on to star in the Real Housewives of New York, spoke about Nicole’s caring nature.
‘Right before Nicole died, two days before, I relapsed. She put me into treatment,’ she shared.
‘I was stressed out beyond relief. But she loved me. She wanted me to be healthy.’
During the trial, Kris made it clear that she strongly believed OJ was guilty of murdering Nicole, while her ex-husband Robert Kardashian acted as one of the lawyers defending the footballer.

Kim Kardashian previously spoke about how the sensational legal battle and her divorced parents’ opposing views divided her family to GQ magazine.
According to the reality star, who was 13 years old when the trial began, her dad pulled her and her Kourtney, then 14, out of school because he wanted them to ‘witness a piece of history.’
But her mom – who had split from Robert in 1991 and got remarried to Caitlyn Jenner, who was known as Bruce at the time, one month later – was not happy when she found out they were missing their classes.
‘My dad pulled Kourtney and me out of school. He said, “I want you girls to witness a piece of history and what a trial is like,”‘ Kim recalled.
‘We walked in and saw my mom sitting on the other side. She said, “You’re supposed to be in school. What are you doing here?” Kourtney and I didn’t even look at her.’
She explained that she and Kourtney opted to spend more time with their dad during the trial because they felt their mom was ‘happily remarried’ while their father was ‘by himself.’
‘Kourtney and I were drawn to our dad. We felt like Mom was happily remarried, so we would live with Dad. We didn’t want him to be by himself,’ she continued.
But she said the 15-month legal battle was extremely difficult on her and the rest of the Kardashian clan, adding, ‘That was really tough for our family.’

OJ was ultimately acquitted of the crime but he was found liable in a wrongful-death civil lawsuit filed by the Brown and Goldman families in 1997.
Even so, he continued to maintain his innocence until his passing in April at age 76 from cancer.
The documentary will show how Nicole endured abuse at the hands of her husband for years before her murder.
‘He was kind of spying on her a lot because he was realizing that she was becoming happy. He was like, stalking, hiding in the bushes,’ Faye said of OJ in another clip shared by TMZ.
She recalled Nicole telling her things like, ‘Be careful what you say, he could be right next to us,’ ‘I saw him last night in the bushes,’ and, ‘I don’t want to get too upset because he’s watching all the time.’
Earlier this month, Nicole’s sisters Tanya, 54, Dominique, 59, and Denise, 66, opened up to People magazine about why they decided to speak out in the upcoming doc, three decades after the world first became enthralled by the case.
‘We decided 30 years was probably the best and the last time to hear her voice and tell her story,’ Denise said.
Tanya added: ‘She’s not a dead body covered with a white sheet at the bottom of the stairs. That’s not Nicole. We want people to see this beautiful human being.’
