OJ Simpson has denied being the father of Khloe Kardashian as he rubbished rumours of a past romance with her mother Kris Jenner.

In a video message posted on Twitter on Father's Day, the former NFL star criticised "bogus" and "tasteless" stories suggesting he had a sexual relationship with Jenner.

Jenner's former husband, Robert Kardashian, was part of Simpson's legal team when he was cleared of the brutal murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman in a 1995 trial that gripped the world.

Simpson said: "Bob Kardashian, he was like a brother to me. He was a great guy.

"He met and married Kris and they really had a terrific time together, when they were together. Unfortunately that ended.

"But never, and I want to stress never, in any way shape or form, have I ever had any interest in Kris romantically or sexually.

"And I never got any indication that she ever had any interest in me. So all of these stories are just bogus. Bad. Tasteless."

Simpson said he was "very proud" of Khloe Kardashian and her sisters, before adding: "Just like I know Bob would be if he was here.

"The simple fact of the matter is – she's not mine."

Simpson signed off the message by saying: "Happy Father's Day. Take care."
