Vanessa Bryant Reportedly Being Sued by Her Mother Over Money

Family and money issues are never a good mix. Vanessa Bryant, the widow of Kobe Bryant, is reportedly in a battle with her mother. The issue is all about money, and Vanessa’s mother allegedly wants some of that Kobe fortune. Supposedly Vanessa promised she’d take care of her mother, and her mother didn’t feel that was happening.

Vanessa was reportedly asked about it:

TRANSLATED: “My mother keeps trying to find ways to get a financial windfall from our family. I have supported her for almost twenty years, and she was never my personal assistant or Kobe’s or babysitter. I have always been a home mother and my husband and I took care of our children all the time. For almost two decades, we arranged for my mother to live in our nearby properties at no cost to her because she had claimed that she had no money to buy her own home after her divorce. my husband and I thought it was better for her not to live in our house. she took care of our girls from time to time, as most grandparents do. she did not deal with business matters or expenses. She was a grandmother who was supported by me and her son-in-law at my request to charge her $ 96 per hour for supposedly working 12 hours a day for 18 years to care for her grandchildren.

Actually, she only occasionally babysat my older girls when they were little. Ten years ago, our children were full-time students and athletes and I did not have another child until 2016. Her claims are obviously false, but I still tried, repeatedly, to fix things with my mother. Contrary to what it says, I have not left my children’s side since the accident, except to visit the cemetery and make arrangements. Earlier this year, she was looking for a new home for herself, and a week later she went on TV and gave an interview in which she despised our family and made false accusations while living rent-free in a gated apartment complex in Newport Coast. Even after that tradition, I was willing to give my mother monthly support for the rest of her life and that was not good enough.

On the other hand, she contacted me through intermediaries (contrary to what she claims, my phone number has not changed) and demanded 5 million, a house and a Mercedes truck. Because I did not give in to her hurtful threats and monetary requests, she has gotten out of control making false and absurd claims. now she is trying to get more money than my husband and I spent to support her while she continues to collect her ex-husband’s monthly alimony since 2004. My husband and I have never discouraged or prevented her from supporting herself. This demand is frivolous, embarrassing and promised nothing to my mother, and I would be very disappointed with her behavior and lack of empathy.

Hopefully Kobe Bryant’s widow and her mother can figure something. The power of money is one of the most evil forces in the entire world. If it can break up the bond between mother and daughter, you know it’s powerful.
