Vanessa Bryant Seemingly Addresses Pregnancy Speculation

by

Vanessa Bryant is boxing out all the noise surrounding her personal life.

In a subtle hint regarding ongoing speculation, Vanessa Bryant, widow of the late Kobe Bryant, suggested that she is not pregnant and intends to enjoy a peaceful, fun-filled summer. She reinforced this message by posting a meme featuring Rihanna lounging by a pool with a snorkel, flipping off the camera, on her Instagram Story in June. The caption read, “Protecting my peace, not pregnant & having fun all summer.

In a subsequent post, the 43-year-old shared another meme featuring Rihanna with the caption, “I’m not rude; I’m just not everyone’s cup of tea.

Without a doubt, Vanessa made an effort to dispel rumors while she was at Disneyland with her two youngest daughters. On the very same day, she posted a video on Instagram showcasing their day out, featuring selfies taken with Bianka and Capri as they strolled around the park, indulged in snacks, and went on various rides.

To further confirm that her late husband was with her, she also shared a video featuring a Disneyland visitor wearing a Kobe jersey.

The Disney vacation with her younger daughters happens during an important achievement for the Bryant family, as Natalia has just graduated from the University of Southern California. Accompanying a photo of Natalia in her Class of 2025 stole, Vanessa wrote on Instagram on May 16, “We’re incredibly proud of you @nataliabryant.

In a different post, Vanessa joyfully embraced her daughter who adorned a sash bearing her late father’s famous “Sheath” emblem, following her graduation ceremony where she walked up to receive her diploma.

Next to the delightful video clip, Vanessa posted, “Heritage. Thanks to @jeaniebuss for making this achievement all the more memorable.

Following the tragic helicopter accident in 2020 that took Kobe Bryant and Gianna’s lives, along with seven others, Vanessa has tirelessly preserved Kobe’s legacy as both a celebrated basketball player and dedicated father of daughters. At the unveiling of his bronze statue in February 2024 at Crypto.com Arena, she revealed an additional detail specifically meant for her daughters.

During her speech, Vanessa mentioned that each of their daughters’ names are inked on Kobe’s arm. She explained that while not all of their daughters were born during that specific moment, this tattooed detail was symbolic and significant to Kobe.
