There’s been a reported sighting of O.J. Simpson’s youngest daughter, Sydney Simpson, outside of her home in Florida nearly two weeks after the NFL Hall of Famer died of cancer on April 10.
According to Daily Mail, Sydney, described as reclusive, was photographed outside her residence in St. Petersburg, seen carrying a child’s car seat back to her apartment. She was wearing a
grey sweater and denim jeans while walking from her vehicle. She reportedly has not been seen in public photos in nearly six years. She and her younger brother, Justin, have lived in the city since her father was found not guilty in the murder of their mother, Nicole Brown Simpson, in 1995. They moved in with O.J. after living in Los Angeles with their mother. An unknown man was also photographed walking from her car.Sydney was seen after her father’s attorney, Malcolm LaVergne, expressed that O.J. did not die surrounded by his children and grandchildren, as announced by the family in a social media post written from the former actor’s X account. LaVergne did say that O.J. had “a close family member” by his side when he died.
Reuters reported that Simpson was cremated on April 17 in a ceremony that was a private gathering attended by friends and family at the Palm Downtown Mortuary & Cemetery in downtown Las Vegas.
