The mother of two’s name was trending worldwide on X following the news. In 2019, Simpson vehemently denied that he was Khloe’s father amid rumuors that she was conceived during an alleged fling with her mother Kris Jenner in the 1990s, which he also stated never happened. “I want to stress never – in any way shape or form had I ever had any interest in Kris, romantically, sexually, and I never got any indication that she had any interest in me,”Simpson said in a video, posted to X.

He continued: “So all of these stories are just bogus. Bad, you know, tasteless.’ Simpson also mentioned his close relationship with Robert Kardashian, the family patriarch who died in 2003. Khloe, like all the Kardashian girls, I’m very proud of, just like I know Bob would be if he was here,” Simpson said.. :But the simple facts of the matter is she’s not mine.”
Norman Pardo, who says he once managed Simpson, has been blamed for circulating the rumor of Simpson’s paternity. But Simpson denied that Pardo ever managed him, saying he is someone who “the media love to say is my manager. “‘I’ve always managed my own affairs, and I’d like to think very successfully,’ Simpson said at the time. He added: “So, when you see these guys like Norm, and these guys claim that they are my manager, it’s just not true. I’ve may have done a deal here or there with them, but none of these guys were anything remotely like a manager for me.”
