American Manhunt: Where are OJ Simpson and Nicole Brown’s kids now?

This week, Netflix has released a documentary series re-examining the OJ Simpson case. The case is arguably one of the biggest celebrity criminal cases of all time. Following the documentary, a lot of people have been wondering where the kids OJ Simpson had with his wife are now.

It’s now been 30 years since what was called the “trial of the century”. In 1994, OJ Simpson’s former wife Nicole Brown, and her friend Ron Goldman, were murdered. The pair had been brutally stabbed to death outside her home.

At the time, NFL star and Hollywood actor OJ Simpson was the prime suspect. After the murders took place, OJ had taken a flight to Chicago. Upon his return, he was interviewed by police but not arrested.

Then, days later when more evidence had been looked at, OJ was involved in a police car chase, after being asked to surrender. Following the chase, OJ was caught and arrested. His murder trial then began. Prosecutors claimed OJ was a controlling former husband, whereas defence said he was wrongly accused.

A huge part of the trial, that lasted eight months, focused around a glove being used as evidence. One glove had been found near the scene, and another at OJ’s residence. OJ was asked to try on the glove during his trial, with a defence attorney saying: “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.” It didn’t fit. OJ was acquitted.

OJ Simpson married Nicole Brown in 1985. They had two children, Sydney and Justin. So, here’s where their kids are now.

OJ Simpson and Nicole Brown’s kids Sydney and Justin have kept out of the public eye since the murder trial. They remained with their father when he moved to Florida, and stood by him when he faced further legal troubles later in life.

After spending nine years in prison for kidnapping and armed robbery, it was announced in 2024 that OJ Simpson had died of cancer, aged 76. “On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer,” a statement from his children read. “He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren. During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace.”

Sydney is 38 now. She has a degree in sociology from Boston University, and is believed to have settled in Florida. It has been reported she works in real estate, and has made a career from property. She is a parent herself now.

35-year-old Justin is also living in Florida, and works in real estate. In 2022, he confirmed he and his partner were expecting a child.

It has been reported that both Sydney and Justin have remained in contact with certain members of mother Nicole’s family. Nicole’s sister Dominique Brown is reported to still be in touch with the siblings.

“At this point, I think they would prefer to just stay low-key and raise their families,” Dominique Brown told People magazine last year. “I think that Nicole was that way. Nicole preferred to be behind the camera. I think that when she was younger and they would do videos, she would try to hide herself from the camera like, ‘Don’t take my picture.’ And she ended up having a completely different life before and after her death.”
