At the time being, they were parents to two daughters.
As the news of their divorce was on the air, it was clear that the $4 million diamond ring Kobe Bryant gave his wife was only a warm-up act. Kobe’s wife was given a total of $75 million, property plus cash as a divorce settlement, which was half of their total assets at that time.
Vanessa Bryant’s $75 million worth of settlement included three of their mansions, the one which they were living at the time which they bought at $1.7 million in 1997. It was situated on 47 acres and boasted 6 bedrooms and approximately 6,500-square feet of living space. Then she received another house which was located right around the corner from the house mentioned above which was bought at $2.65 million in 2003. The one standing out amongst the three was their 14,000-square feet, 6-bedroom, the 9-bath estate, which features an elevator, media room, wine cellar, exercise room, sauna, and steam facilities and, a game courthouse which was bought in 2007 at $9.54 million.

Vanessa Bryant Is Confident About Her Late Husband Kobe Bryant’s Will
Kobe Bryant’s widow, Vanessa Bryant, says that she’s solid proof that her mother’s lawsuit against Kobe’s estate is total nonsense.
Moreover, according to Radar, the NBA star’s beloved believes that her mom lied to the court and wants all claims dismissed. Furthermore, last year, Sofia Lane took her daughter to court over a supposed promise Bryant made during his lifetime. She further claimed that Kobe had vowed to support her financially throughout her life.
However, Sofia claims that her daughter, Vanessa, cut her off after Kobe’s death. She further added that she’d helped raise her daughters, but in turn, she was not even provided her proper meal breaks or paid her overtime.
On the other hand, Vanessa denies Kobe ever promised to support her financially and declared the lawsuit an extortion attempt. She further said that the lawsuit is frivolous and hurtful. She also clarified that her deceased husband never promised anything, and he’d be very disappointed in her behavior.
