Caitlyn Jenner once banned the Kardashians from talking about O.J. Simpson

Soon after revealing that she and stepdaughter Khloé Kardashian haven’t spoken in five years, Caitlyn Jenner is spilling more family secrets on UK reality show “I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!”

During Wednesday’s episode, Jenner, 70, discussed her experience as Kris Jenner’s partner witnessing Kris’ ex, Robert Kardashian Sr., help defend O.J. Simpson, who was acquitted of murdering family friend Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman in 1995.

“It was a bad time for everyone, very difficult,” Jenner shared, according to Cosmopolitan UK. “We knew what happened and that the trial was a joke and when the verdict came, Kris just turns around to me and goes, ‘We should’ve listened to Nicole from the very beginning. She was right.’”

Jenner then noted how the trial impacted the eldest Kardashian kids, adding, “That night the verdict came in, Kourtney and Kimberly were in school and obviously they loved their father — and they should — and they’d been following this for a year and a half. And when they walked in the door, I think it was Kourtney who said, ‘Well I told you he didn’t do it.’ And I just said to the girls: ‘I don’t want his name ever mentioned in this house again.'”

In an October episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” Kris is brought to tears discussing the loss of her close friend Nicole.

“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,” she admitted.

“You can’t explain this to anybody,” she added. “There’s a part of me that just gets so angry that I mask my emotions of sadness because I can be angry.”
