Once again, the Kardashian family is making news in the arena of family law. This time, the reality television stars are refuting claims made by two former wives of the late Robert Kardashian that daughter Khloe Kardashian is not his biological child. Statements Robert Kardashian made under oath around 1998 appear to support Khloe Kardashian's denial of those paternity claims.

Robert Kardashian, an attorney best known for helping represent O.J. Simpson in his 1995 murder trial, divorced Khloe Kardashian's mother in 1990 and married twice more before he died in 2003. In 1998, he sought to annul his marriage from his then-wife Kris. He filed a sworn affidavit with the court to support his contention that the marriage should be annulled due to his changing his mind over whether to have another child.

In the affidavit, Kardashian explained that after marrying the woman, he decided that four biological children were enough and he did not want to have another. The statement, made under oath, was an apparent reference to the four children he had with his first wife: daughters Kourtney, Kim and Khloe, and son Robert Jr.

The wife involved in the annulment and Kardashian's third wife, whom he married shortly before his death, both recently claimed that he admitted that Khloe Kardashian was not his biological daughter. The claims have sparked angry refutations from the Kardashian family, including mother Kris Jenner, who said in an interview that she knows Robert Kardashian was Khloe Kardashian's father. The daughter also has referred to the controversy in her Twitter account.
