Marguerite Whitley - Get Acquainted With O. J. Simpson's Ex-Wife

Marguerite Whitley was born in Los Angeles, California, on March 20, 1949.

She is a businesswoman and a former employee of a retail store. However, she is widely known as the first wife of OJ Simpson, a retired professional American football player. 

After his unusual acquittal in the murder case of his second ex-wife, his former spouse made headlines.

Career

Whitley is of African-American origin, and she attended high school in Los Angeles. She matriculated and enrolled at the Campus of Southern California (USC), the same university where OJ Simpson was enrolled. 

She was in a different relationship at the time, romantically linked to her college classmate Al Cowlings. 

Once when they attended a party, OJ drove her home and they became close in an instance. The two had known each other for a while but had never really connected until that time. 

They started dating in 1967 when her romance with Cowlings ended, and three months later they were engaged. Except for his successes in college football, he was virtually unknown at the time. 

She primarily worked as an employee for the large box retailer Walmart after she finished her education. 

Her husband's career in the National Football League (NFL) began to develop, and she most likely benefited from the fortune he had amassed. She later inherited her family's business which provided her with more cash.
