Momager Kris Jenner has made her first public appearance since the news OJ Simpson had died.
The 68-year-old was seen posing with daughter Kim Kardashian at the 10th Breakthrough Prize ceremony in Los Angeles over the weekend.
OJ Simpson died earlier this year following a battle with cancer, at age 76, 30 years after the ‘trial of the century’ gripped the world beyond the courtroom.
Kris’ best friend, Nicole Brown Simpson – OJ’s ex wife – and her friend Ron Goldman were brutally murdered outsider Nicole’s home in June 1994, while her children (whom she shares with OJ) were asleep in their beds.

The running back was arrested and charged with the double murder crime, but after 11 grueling months of testimony, he was acquitted by a jury after just three hours.
Kris’ ex-husband, Robert Kardashian Snr, represented his friend OJ as part of his legal team at the murder trial.
When his death was announced on Thursday, April 11, eyes have been on the TV star to see if she’d release a statement.
However, she’s remained tight-lipped, not like Kris’ ex partner Caitlyn Jenner who tweeted in celebration of OJ Simpson’s death and received backlash for it.
At the event Kris wore a long black skirt and jacket and paired it with a silk corset and sheer shirt.
43-year-old celebrity Kim wore a white halter neck leather gown that hugged her curves.
Kris is currently mourning the loss of her sister, Karen Houghton, who passed away last month. The 65-year-old had died from cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac arrhythmia.
The glitzy event, celebrates groundbreaking achievements in science and mathematics.

Kris Jenner has opened up over OJ Simpson and Nicole before
In 2015, Kris Jenner talked about her friend Nicole Brown Simpson and OJ on LMN’s The Secret Tapes of the OJ Case: The Untold Story.
She said: “At the end of Nicole’s life, I think she finally was at a place where she knew she had to be more vocal with what was going on and she was in trouble.
“The one thing she would tell all of us by the time, you know, it got to that level was, “He’s going to kill me and he’s going to get away with it.””
It plagued her mind for years, as she added: “I will always feel guilty that I didn’t pay more attention and didn’t speak up when I thought anything was wrong or asked her more, “Do you want to talk about it?””
