Vanessa Bryant to Receive at Least $75 Million in Divorce From Kobe

by at .

Vanessa Bryant is positioned to make out like a bandit in her divorce from Kobe Bryant, in large part due to the couple's apparent lack of a prenuptial agreement.

Coupled with 10 years of marriage, her settlement should be upwards of $75 million - half the L.A. Lakers guard's fortune - along with support for their daughters.

Vanessa Bryant's mom told the Los Angeles Times that the couple did not sign a prenuptial agreement when they wed - entitling Vanessa to half of their assets.

Vanessa and Kobe Bryant

Estimates put Kobe Bryant's net worth at $150 million. The NBA's highest-paid player, he earned $24.8 million last season, part of an extension worth $83.5 million.

Forbes magazine estimates that with endorsement deals, Kobe last year earned $53 million before taxes and agent fees. So basically, Vanessa is sitting pretty.

The fact the marriage lasted 10 years also gives Vanessa big advantages under California law, as she is allowed to maintain her standard of living after the split.

In the petition filed Friday, Vanessa cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the divorce. The couple says the terms have already been settled privately.

The NBA star was caught cheating with multiple women by his wife, according to sources, with good old-fashioned gossip among basketball spouses to blame.

His latest mistress is rumored to be Jessica Burciaga, but that has not been confirmed.

The lesson in all of this? Get a prenup and/or don't cheat on your wife all the time.

    Vanessa is now young. Beautiful. And filthy rich thanks to Kobe dumb ass Bryant. She will move on and find someone who will appreciate her and Kobe knows it. He also knows that he will doubt every woman he is with in the future as someone out for his money. Karma Kobe...Karma

    I hate Vanessa she's a snob I seen them at Disney princess on ice n every one was calling their names she acted all bitchy as usual but coby waived and was very nice (mind u they were all little girls) and she still acted like that! But with that said I don't think she started out a gold digger cuz they were highschool sweethearts! So she was there b4 the deal but that doesn't mean she didn't turn into one! Y do u think the other wives told u not to help u to get back at u! Not even kloe likes ur bitch ass! They should change her name to Chicle (gum in espanol) cuz shes like an old piece of chewed u gum that's stuck to the bottom of colbys ass I mean shoe!

    Well I think Kobe is getting what he deserves because he knew what cheating could cost him and he didn't give damn so why does she.And as far as he made her what she is and she don't deserves anything is (BULLSHIT)point blank.And as far as she was probably giving him a reason for cheating is also BS because there are no reasons,if Kobe was not happy with his wife anymore he should have just given her a divorce along time ago.I bet he wish he could have a do over now!!!!
