#NBA Kobe’s Wife Could Receive $75 Million in Divorce Settlement

Posted by Unknown on 12:54 PM


Vanessa Bryant stands to receive at least $75 million, in addition to spousal and child support, from a divorce settlement with her husband, Lakers star Kobe Bryant, the L.A. Times reports.

Vanessa’s mother told The Times several years ago that the couple does not have a prenuptial agreement, and if that’s true, Vanessa could be entitled to half their community property. Kobe’s net worth is estimated at $150 million.

The fact that the marriage lasted 10 years will also be a factor in the divorce settlement. Under California law, a marriage of at least 10 years means a spouse is allowed to “maintain her standard of living” after the divorce, attorney Dmitry Gorin told The Times.

Had Kobe asked Vanessa to sign a prenup, family attorney Christopher C. Melcher said, “It could have saved half of his fortune.”

The couple did say in a statement last Friday that they had “resolved all issues incident to their divorce privately.”
