More than 20 years later, the public is still enthralled with every aspect of O.J. Simpson's infamous 1995 murder trial.
Thanks to the recent bombshell that a knife that was allegedly recovered on Simpson's property and the weekly depiction of the trial through FX's The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, the line between what is real and what's been added for pure entertainment value continues to blur more than two decades later.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the famed case was the common belief that prosecutors Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden were more than just colleagues. Sarah Paulson and Sterling K. Brown's chemistry-packed character portrayals of Clark and Darden, respectively, on American Crime Story have further fueled the relationship speculation.
When ET caught up with Clark last September, the famed attorney confessed that she hopes American Crime Story will depict "the truth" about her relationship between Darden.
What exactly is the truth, you ask? "Chris and I were trench mates," Clark said. "He kept me from just utter depression so many days."
Clark explained that the jury's blatant distain for in the courtroom and the prying eyes of the public her often left her feeling "dispirited" and Darden was one of the few people who could cheer her up.
"Sometimes it would really get to me," she spilled. "And he would be there to say, 'It's alright, it's going to be okay. If we just keep putting on the evidence, they'll get it. They'll get it.'"
"He was a great partner, and I hope they show that," Clark added.
