Vanessa Bryant, the widow of Kobe Bryant, is the subject of pregnancy rumors that appear to have come out of nowhere.
Kobe, a five-time NBA champion, passed away along with his 13-year-old daughter Giana in a helicopter crash in early 2020, leaving behind a wife and two other daughters.
Kobe and Vanessa were married for nearly 20 years, having tied the knot in 2001. They went through widely publicized periods of difficulty, but they remained together until his death five years ago.
Rumors of her being pregnant surfaced on Facebook this weekend, with one user even claiming it’s for a 27-year-old basketball player.
“Vanessa Bryant is pregnant by a 27 year old basketball player. Kobe gave his life, ruined family relationships behind this woman and just 5 years after the death of the man she spent over 20 years with, you get pregnant by another professional player 16 years younger than you,” their post read.

Of course, none of this has been substantiated, and it really appears that social media just ran with the original post once they caught wind.
While Vanessa was romantically linked to Kobe’s former teammate Pau Gasol and Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka in the past, the rumors turned out to be just that: rumors.
Credible reports from earlier this year state that Vanessa has remained single and is focusing on her family and her late husband’s legacy.

“They Thought She’d Stay Silent. She Left a Memoir Instead.” Virginia Giuffre—a fierce survivor, Epstein accuser, and tireless advocate—didn’t speak her truth on a stage or in headlines. Instead, she left behind a whispered legacy: a 400-page memoir, Nobody’s Girl, written in secret, unfiltered, and complete with the names no one dared to type. She never released it while alive. She waited. Then, months after her death, her words began to surface. This isn’t a call for sympathy or a demand for reckoning. It’s a record—steady, undeniable, and final. In one writer’s revelation, she names the rooms, the voices, the secrets. Now, powerful figures across politics, royalty, and media brace for a conversation they spent decades avoiding. What did she expose? That truth is about to come.
