Kobe Bryant’s wife, Vanessa, has filed for divorce late Friday afternoon, citing “irreconcilable differences” after a 10.5 years marriage to the NBA star.
According to the court papers, Vanessa is seeking joint custody of their 2 daughters (8-year-old Natalia and 5-year-old Gianna) but asking for physical custody so the girls could remain in her care most of the time.
There is no prenup and Vanessa has asked for a division of marital assets and spousal and child support.
Kobe has already filed a response to the papers and the Bryants have released a joint statement saying they have “resolved all issues” privately.
