Vanessa Bryant Applauded For Waiting 10 Years To Divorce Kobe Bryant

Vanessa Bryant is being hailed as the new face for sticking it to your cheating husband. Rumor has it that Kobe Bryant‘s wife Vanessa waited 10 years before divorcing him to get the biggest possible payday.

“In California … it’s considered a long-term marriage and then she gets paid for life or until she remarries … just like her mother is doing to me,” Vanessa Bryant’s ex-step-father, Stephen Laine said.

According to the LA Times, “the apparent lack of a prenuptial agreement – coupled with 10 years of marriage – significantly increases the size of Vanessa Bryant’s divorce settlement with Kobe Bryant, legal experts said. applauded

There are also reports that Vanessa basically checked out of the relationship 4 years ago because Kobe’s cheating had gotten so bad, but her mother convinced her to stick around to get the big pay day after 10 years.

Smart woman! That shouldn’t be called gold digging when your man can’t keep it in his pants. Let’s just say she paid her dues.

Kobe still has his NBA career with the Los Angeles Lakers to fall back on – we think he will get along just fine. Would you wait it out for another 4 years for $75 million?

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
