Famed football player OJ Simpson died Wednesday, his family announced. He was 76. • “On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer,” read a statement posted to Simpson’s X account Thursday. • “He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren. During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace.” • Simpson was last photographed smiling at a Las Vegas restaurant on Feb. 19. • Earlier that month, a local news station reported that the NFL legend had been diagnosed with prostate cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy amid rumors that he had entered hospice care; however, he denied the rumors. • “Hospice! You talking about hospice?” he questioned with a laugh in a video taken inside his car. • “No, I’m not even in the hospital. I don’t know who put that out there.” • Simpson then jubilantly explained that he was preparing to see “a ton of friends” for a Super Bowl LVIII viewing party. • In May 2023, however, the controversial figure shared in a video posted to his X account that he had been diagnosed with cancer and turned to medical marijuana to ease his side effects. • “I had to do the whole chemo thing … I started smoking a couple of puffs a day, and I only had nausea twice,” he said at the time. “I’m over the chemo. I only got nauseous on two occasions. … The pot really helped me with the unfortunate side of catching cancer. • • #ojsimpson • #ojsimpsondeath • #nfl • #obituaries • #prostatecancer
