Who is Sydney Brooke Simpson? Where is she now?

Sydney Brooke Simpson was born on the 17th October 1985 in the USA; the actual place of birth is unknown in the media. She is probably best recognized for being the daughter of Orenthal James ‘O.J.’ Simpson, a former famous professional American Football player, broadcaster and actor, who was accused of murder in 1994 in a highly publicized trial which garnered both national and international attention. She currently lives in St. Petersburg, Florida, where she runs her own business, alongside her younger brother.

Early Life and Family

Speaking about her early life, Sydney is the first child of ‘O.J.’ Simpson and his second wife, Nicole Brown. The two met while Nicole was working as a waitress in 1977, and they began dating although he was married at the time. After O.J. divorced his first wife, the couple tied the knot in 1985, and welcomed Sydney later that year. Three years later, Nicole gave birth to their second child, a son named Justin Ryan Simpson. Their marriage lasted for seven years, before they divorced in 1992.

Tragedy

In 1994, Sydney Brooke’s mother, Nicole, and her friend Ron Goldman were found stabbed to death outside Nicole’s apartment in Los Angeles, California. Nicole’s ex-husband and Sydney Brooke’s father, O.J. Simpson was the prime suspect for the murders. What ensued was eleven months of highly publicized, nationally televised and internationally famous trial, which was often characterized as the “The Trial of the Century”. The trial ended on the 3rd October 1995, with O.J. being acquitted, found not guilty of the two murders.

The trial was controversial and notable for its division along racial lines when it comes to public reaction and opinion on the verdict. Polls showed that majority of white and Latin Americans thought that O.J. should have been found guilty, while the majority of African Americans felt that the justice had been served by his acquittal of the sentence. The case became the base of the first season of the true crime anthology TV series “American Crime Story”, entitled “The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story” – the first episode premiered in February of 2016 on the FX Network, winning the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards in several categories, and Golden Globe Awards among many others.
