Days after Vanessa Bryant filed for divorce from Kobe, a tabloid is making a jaw dropping claim about why.
A source described as a friend of Vanessa’s told the National Enquirer that she believes Kobe averaged at least 10 affairs a year over their marriage, which would put the number around 105. The source also claimed Vanessa hired a private detective who caught Kobe cheating during the recent NBA lockout, and that was her final straw.
This comes from one unnamed source in a tabloid, so take it with a grain of salt. Neither Kobe nor Vanessa has commented on the claims.
What is confirmed is that Vanessa filed for divorce on December 16 after more than 10 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple has two daughters, and reports say they did not have a prenup, which means Vanessa could be entitled to half of what Kobe earned during the marriage.
It has been a tough stretch for Kobe on the court too. He is dealing with a wrist injury, and the Lakers just took back to back losses to the Clippers.
