At the end of the ’80s and early 90s, the Kardashians and Simpsons were inseparable, raising their children together, spending time in each other’s homes and falling away on a tropical family holiday. But in 1994, after OJ Simpson was arrested for murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and his friend Ron Goldman, everything changed. (…)
“The amount is why I had no choice, because why would I spend $ 15,000 of estate money – why would I spend $ 15,000 in attorney fees – to sell to Kim for $ 15,000?” Lavergne said People. “That’s a zero-sum game. That’s a bad business model. If Kim had offered $ 150,000 for him, we would have been in court approved outside the auction. “

“Kim can try it on -lein,” added Lavergne. “She may even get it cheaper than the 15 grands, so who knows.”
