Vanessa Bryant Says Her Mother Isn't Owed Money From Kobe's Estate

  • A lawsuit against Kobe Bryant's estate, filed by Vanessa Bryant's mother, Sofia Laine, claims that Laine is entitled to financial support for the rest of her life from Kobe's estate.
  • Laine states that Kobe had made this promise to her.
  • Vanessa Bryant disagrees with the claim and states that her mother is trying to "extort a financial windfall" therefore has asked the judge to dismiss the lawsuit.
  • Additionally, Laine was supposed to be receiving spousal support from her ex-husband but he told the court that Vanessa and Kobe were taking care of her financially and he wasn't required to pay.
