What Happened Between OJ Simpson And Tawny Kitaen?

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

As CBS Sports noted in 2016 in their coverage with the docuseries "O.J.: Made in America," ex-athlete O.J. Simpson carried out an affair with actor Tawny Kitaen during his marriage to Nicole Brown Simpson, the majority of which occurred while Nicole was pregnant with their child. As former friend Robin Greer recounted in the documentary, O.J. pursued Kitaen because of his then-wife's pregnancy weight gain, a fact that purportedly aligned with his approach towards women as a whole.

According to an article published by The Sun in March following Kitaen's death at the age of 59, she continued a relationship in some form with O.J. (albeit one that was implied as platonic) even after he was acquitted for the murders of Nicole and Ron Goldman in 1995. But knowledge of their sexual affair became the subject of public scrutiny in O.J.'s subsequent civil trial, in which his infidelities, along with his abuse of his ex-wife, served as evidence of his possible guilt. As the Associated Press reported at the time of the 1997 civil case, a letter written by Nicole in 1989 alleged that O.J. had "beat the holy hell" out of her, and the injuries she sustained were severe enough to require hospitalization. Nicole stated that she and her then-husband "lied at the X-ray lab and said I fell off a bike."
