It was reported that Aaren Simpson was the last born of O.J and Marguerite Whitley, his first wife. The two tied the knot on June 24, 1967. They were pretty young when they got married. Simpson was a 19-year-old student at the University of San Fransisco.

OJ Simpson’s first wife was a homemaker. The couple got their first girl, Arnelle Simpson, in 1968, while their second-born son, Jason Simpson, was born in 1970. Their last born daughter, Aaren, was born on September 24, 1977, in California, USA.

Aaren’s cause of death came as a shock to the family and the world. OJ’s child drowned in the family swimming pool as she was taking a stroll around their home.

Her family found her shortly after, but she was unconscious. They immediately called the medical experts, who were able to revive her after performing CPR. Baby Aaren would then be rushed to the University of California Medical Centre (UCLA) in Los Angeles.

She lay in a coma for a few days at the facility and was put on life support. Sadly, the little angel passed away a few days later due to respiratory failure. Aaren’s curtains fell on August 26th, 1979, just a few days to her second birthday.
