Vanessa Bryant Applauded For Waiting 10 Years To Divorce Kobe Bryant

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

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?

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
