Kris Jenner tears up while discussing murder of friend Nicole Brown Simpson: 'Part of me just gets so angry'
Kris Jenner is still heartbroken over Nicole Brown Simpson's death. The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' momager teared up while grabbing some lunch with her friend Faye Resnick at Toscana and said, "We sat right over there. And I could tell you what she ordered — she ordered the white fish with the spinach and the roasted potatoes. And I think she had a margarita."
It's been 25 years since Brown's death and her ex-husband Robert Kardashian Sr. was part of the infamous trial of O.J Simpson. Nicole, Simpson's ex-wife and her friend Ron Goldman were violently murdered in 1994. Both Kardashians were friends with the couple and Kardashian Sr. was part of the NFL's star's legal defense team. While sitting at Toscana, the waiter informed the girls that as part of their 30th anniversary, the menu was the same as three decades ago. "That just gave me chills,” Jenner said in the 'KUWTK' promo for Sunday's episode, "The fact that we’re looking at the same menus we all had when we were going there all those years ago with Nicole — I feel like it was just meant to be, that this is where we are to celebrate her life."
“I wasn’t going to cry,” the 63-year-old continued, remembering her friend, "I think I’ve realized that I’ve latched onto the legal side of stuff, rather than deal with the emotional side of myself that just misses my girlfriend. You can’t explain this to anybody,” she adds, “There’s a part of me that just gets so angry that I mask my emotions of sadness because I can be angry.”
O.J Simpson was acquitted in the double-murders in October 1995 but was held liable for the deaths in 1997 through a civil suit by the two victims' families. In an LMN documentary named 'The Secret Tapes of the O.J. Case: The Untold Story', Jenner said that she felt guilty about Brown's death. "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?" she said.
She is also said that she and Nicole spoke hours before her death, in her 2011 memoir 'Kris Jenner...and All Things Kardashian'. "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," Kris said in the documentary, "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.'"
