Details of the final days and moments of O.J. Simpson's life have been revealed after the former football player died at the age of 76.
News of his death was confirmed on Thursday after his family shared a statement, reading: "On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer.
"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. The Simpson Family."
Now, details of his final visitors as well as non-disclosure agreements medical staff had to sign have come to light following his death.

However, his glittering sporting career ended up being overshadowed by the brutal murder of his wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her close friend Ron Goldman, in 1994.
Simpson was the prime suspect in the case but was acquitted in 1995 following a long trial where he was represented by Robert Kardashian, Kris Jenner's former husband. The athlete was later found guilty in a civil trial in 1996, and Brown's family was awarded damages.
New reports state that in Simpson's final moments, all of his children - including Sydney Brooke Simpson and Justin Simpson, who he shared with Brown - were at his bedside to say goodbye.
Simpson died at his home in Las Vegas on Wednesday, and medical staff treating him - as well as his family and visitors - were all made to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) according to TMZ.
A source claimed that they were made to sign it for "privacy" reasons while he was under hospice care for prostate cancer, and everyone was banned from taking their phones into the room while saying their goodbyes.
The outlet reported that around 30-50 people, including many of the athlete's family and friends, had signed the NDAs before seeing him.
All of his children were reportedly by his side when he died, including Sydney and Justin, who he shared with Brown, as well as his older children, Jason and Arnelle Simpson, who he had with Marguerite Whitley.
His fifth child, Aaren Lashone Simpson, drowned in 1979 at the age of two.
Just weeks before his death, OJ - who was nicknamed 'The Juice' - had dispelled rumors he was going into a hospice after being diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Watch Simpson dismiss rumors below:
Speaking in February, he told his followers: "Hey X world, hospice? Hospice? You talking about hospice," the former running back said in a video posted to X. "No, I’m not in any hospice. I don’t know who put that out there.
"I guess it’s like Donald [Trump] says, 'You can’t trust the media,'" he continued, before concluding: "In any event, I’m hosting a tonne of friends for the Super Bowl here in Las Vegas. All is well, you know. So take care, have a good Super Bowl weekend."
