After having dealt with an unimaginable family tragedy back in January, Vanessa Bryant is now facing more family turmoil through an estranged relationship with her mother, Sofia Lane.
In an interview on Univision’s “El Gordo Y La Flaca”, Lane claims that Vanessa kicked her out of the Bryant home and that she repossessed her car. According to her, Vanessa also said,
“You need to leave my house and give me my car.”
Vanessa responded to her mother’s claims in a statement that read,
“My husband and daughter passed away unexpectedly, and yet my mother had the audacity to do a television interview speaking negatively of me while shedding tears for a car and a house that were not in her name.”
“She has removed all her diamond jewelry, emptied the apartment I provided, and put away the furniture to make it look like she doesn’t have my support. My husband and I have supported her financially for the past 20 years, and continue to do so, in addition to her monthly alimony.”
“Contrary to previous reports, she has not been physically present or emotionally supportive of my daughters and me after my husband and daughter passed away. Now I see what is most important to my mother and it’s more than painful. I hope that everything that is coming out about our personal relationship ends here.”
This may come as a shock since Vanessa and her mother seemed close. It’s also been reported that since the death of Gianna and Kobe, they grew even closer and Lane offered to help her daughter with her three remaining grandchildren.
What are your thoughts on Lane’s claims against her daughter, especially during a time like this?
