Sydney Brooke Simpson was born the same year Nicole Brown Simpson and OJ Simpson married.

Sydney Brooke Simpson was born on October 17, 1885, per People. As her birth came nine months after Simpson and Brown Simpson wed in a February 2 ceremony, she "could have been a honeymoon baby, could have been a pre-honeymoon baby," according to Brown Simpson's sister, Dominque Brown.

She was eight years old when her mother was murdered in 1994. After Brown's death and amid her father's trial, she was looked after by her maternal grandparents, Louis Brown and Juditha Brown.

However, after her father was acquitted, Sydney and her younger brother were placed back into his custody, according to The New York Times. The elder Browns fought unsuccessfully for custody of the pair until 2006, when they had both turned 18 and were no longer considered minors.

She now lives a private life and chose not to participate in the new docuseries.

According to The Los Angeles Times, Sydney obtained a degree in Sociology from Boston University. After that, she spent time in Atlanta before she moved to St. Petersburg, Florida, People reports.

An article published in The Tampa Bay Times in 2016 stated that Sydney had pursued a career in real estate and owned multiple properties in Florida.

Now 38, Sydney seemingly has no presence on social media and appears to keep her life private.

In May 2024, Sydney's aunt, Dominique, said that after being thrown into the spotlight as a child, Sydney and her younger brother prefer "to just stay low-key."

Nicole Brown Simpson's younger child, Justin Ryan Simpson, was only 5 when his mother was murdered.

Justin Ryan Simpson, Simpson and Brown Simpson's younger child, was on August 6, 1988, People reported.

He was five when the tragic events of June 1994 took place and, like his older sister, was sleeping upstairs at the property on 875 South Bundy Drive in Brentwood the night Simpson and Goldman were murdered.

Like Sydney, he was temporarily cared for by the Brown family during his father's trial before being returned to Simpson's care after his acquittal.

In her People interview, Dominique stated that she and her sisters lost touch with Justin and his older sister after this. It was only through "The Life & Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson" that the aunts learned about what the rest of their childhood entailed.

"We found out a lot of things went down in Florida—911 calls with the kids saying, 'Daddy, stop,' their house getting raided, just chaos," Dominique said.

Now, Justin Ryan Simpson is a father himself.

Following renewed interest in his mother's death and father's legal battles in 2016 when the TV dramatization "The People v. O.J. Simpson" aired on FX, Justin spoke to The Tampa Bay Times and stated that he also works in real estate.

A Zillow profile that appears to belong to Justin reads: "Justin has seen a diverse spectrum of markets from Los Angeles to Chicago, Miami and Atlanta. Having spent years in multi-family renovation and income properties, Justin has turned his focus to helping others succeed as he has."

On an Instagram page People identified as belonging to Justin, the now 35-year-old, announced in February 2022 that he was going to be a first-time dad and was expecting a child with his partner.

He shared a photograph of an ultrasound scan and said that they planning to name her Lana. A gift registry he provided a link for indicated that the baby was due to be born on May 3, 2022.

"We are extremely excited, scared, nervous and in love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️," the post was captioned. "In only a few short months we will be welcoming little Lana and can't wait for you to meet her!"
