Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant's estranged wife, Vanessa, almost filed for divorce from the NBA basketball star four years ago, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting. http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2011/12/vanessa-bryant-divorce-kobe-bryant-almost-filed-four-years-ago
Vanessa almost filed for divorce from the Lakers star, four years ago, because she was so disgusted with his blatant cheating. Vanessa infamously stood by her NBA champ husband during their 10-year marriage despite a high-profile scandal in which he was accused of sexually assaulting a worker at a Colorado hotel.
Bryant, 33, admitted to having sexual relations with 19-year old hotel employee Katelyn Faber but denied assault. The assault case was dropped by prosecutors after Faber refused to testify in the trial. A separate civil lawsuit was eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. The couple have two daughters, and Vanessa wanted to raise them in an intact family, but in the end decided enough was enough.
"Vanessa wanted to stay together for the children. Vanessa stood by Kobe during his darkest hour, and she believed him when he said there would be no more women,” the source says. “Vanessa began to get suspicious again about 16 months ago about Kobe cheating on her, he knew that if he wasn't faithful, she would leave him. Vanessa had no other choice.”

My opinion is that pro athletes have double standards - one for professional athletes and one for the rest of us. I hope her divorce attorney is aggressive and makes sure she and the children are taken care of. I wish she was getting a divorce in Ft. Myers, Florida so I could happily represent her with a vengeance!
