Kris Jenner made her first public appearance on Saturday night since OJ Simpson‘s death as she posed with glamorous daughter Kim Kardashian at the 10th Breakthrough Prize ceremony in LA.

OJ passed away earlier this week at the age of 76 following a cancer battle – thirty years after his ‘trial of the century’ tore the Kardashian family apart.

Kris‘ best friend Nicole Brown, OJ’s ex-wife, was brutally murdered with Ron Goldman in Los Angeles in June 1994.

 

Prosecutors said at trial that OJ killed Nicole and Goldman in a jealous rage, painting him as an ‘obsessive ex’ who felt that if he couldn’t have her, no one could.

Kris’s ex-husband, Robert Kardashian, went on to represent OJ at his murder trial – a decision that haunted the family for decades.

OJ was sensationally acquitted of the killing, despite the mountain of evidence against him and absolute belief among Nicole’s friends that he was responsible for their deaths.

After the death Kris, 68, made an appearance at the star-studded event on Saturday night in LA.

She looked as chic as ever in a long black skirt and jacket which she teamed with silk corset and sheer shirt.

Kim, 43, slipped her famous hourglass curves into a white halter neck leather gown that clung to her figure.

The sizzling design featured cut-outs on the sides and highlighted the newly-single star‘s ample cleavage.

Kim — whose aunt Karen Houghton‘s cause of death was just revealed — added a sultry touch to the outfit by rocking her waist-long raved tresses in a wet look.

As for glam Kim opted for a smokey eyeshadow, dramatic lashes, a touch of pink blush on her cheeks, and red gloss on her pout.

In a tweet on OJ’s X account on Thursday, a statement said he had died ‘surrounded by family.’

Robert Kardashian served as one of OJ’s defense attorneys during Simpson’s murder trial for the 1994 stabbing deaths of Brown and her friend Ron Goldman.

Simpson was deemed liable for the deaths in 1997 in a civil case brought by the two victims’ families.

In 2008, Simpson was convicted for his role in the armed robbery and kidnapping of two sports memorabilia dealers in Las Vegas.  He was released from prison in 2017 after serving nine years.

In 2015, Kris talked about Nicole and OJ on LMN’s 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 told LMN.

‘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.”‘

The mother to Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Rob, Kendall and Kylie added: ‘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?”‘ Jenner said.

Jenner was in court for the trial that ended on October 3, 1995, as she sat by ex  Robert, whom she had divorced in 1989.

She also had to listen to a police call, played as evidence, from Nicole the October before her death.

Nicole said on the call that OJ was ‘going nuts’ and was ‘going to beat the s*** out of me,’ Jenner said.

‘Her voice, pleading for somebody to come to her house because she thought he was going to beat the s*** out of her, you know, I think that, that was so shocking to me because I had never heard that before,’ said the reality TV icon.

This comes after Kris’ sister Karen Houghton died at the age of 65 on March 18.
