Vanessa Bryant, widow of NBA icon Kobe Bryant, recently addressed swirling social media rumors about her being pregnant.
Bryant has kept her personal life private since the tragic 2020 helicopter crash that claimed the lives of Kobe and their 13-year-old daughter, Gianna. She continues to focus on raising their three other daughters: Natalia, now 22, Bianka, 8, and Capri, 5.
But over the weekend, Bryant had to step out onto social media and answer a big question that somehow went viral: Is she pregnant?
