Were Chris Darden And Marcia Clark Romantically Involved During The O.J. Trial? With renewed interest in the O.J. Simpson trial , there’s also renewed interest in the lives and personal dealings of the lawyers involved in trying the case. One notable side story that’s been danced around on the FX series recounting the trial of the century , is the very obvious sexual tension between Marcia Clark and Chris Darden. Chris Darden’s daughter, Oakland, CA-based journalist Jeneé Darden, has been documenting the fact and fiction of “ACS: The People Vs. O.J. Simpson” on her personal blog. Of course, with the themes explored in both last week’s episode and tonight’s events on the show, people are wondering once again if Darden and Clark were getting it in when the gavel dropped at the end of each trial session. According to Jeneé, there was no swirly smashing happening between the two prosecutors during or after the trial. At least, that’s what her father told her when she asked. Via CocoaFly : Since people seem to be interested in whether I know my father’s sexual history, I ask them about who their parents slept with. Apparently people don’t like to talk about their parents’ sex lives because they change the conversation quick. LOL! Mind you, adults asked me this question even when I was a teenager. I’m used to it after 20+ years. Being older helps because I handle it better. As for whether my father and Marcia were seeing each other, I asked my dad during a car ride around the time of the trial. He said no. In other interviews, he won’t confirm or deny the rumors. I told Access Hollywood, “That’s grown folks’ business” because I was a kid at the time. And you know what? It’s still none of my business. Well, that said…would she REALLY know what happened or not??? Do you think a father would honestly tell his then-15-year-old daughter if he and his coworker were clearing off their desks and releasing the tension of the trial on each other from time to time?? As it turns out, both Darden and Clark wrote about each other very affectionately in their respective memoirs, but don’t really confirm or deny anything. Hit the flip to see what each had to say about the other and judge for yourself… WireImage / Splash
