Dr. Umar Johnson GOES OFF on Vanessa Bryant - "Kobe left with you almost $1 Billion yet you DON'T have the DECENCY to give his parents $1 MILLION?"

Is Dr. Umar right about this?

Kobe’s Parents Did Not Approve Of His Marriage To Vanessa​

Not much is known about the relationship Kobe shared with his parents before his career took off, but one can only presume that it was relatively content. What caused the rift was Kobe’s decision to get engaged to Vanessa Laine when he was merely 21. Vanessa was a seventeen-year-old high school student at the time and had been trying her luck at music videos.

Kobe’s parents, Pam and Joe, were not pleased with Kobe’s decision to get engaged at such a young age. They wanted him to focus on his career and live his life before settling down with a girl. Another theory as to why Kobe’s parents disapproved of Vanessa is because she wasn’t African-American — she was of Hispanic heritage.

However, Kobe decided to go against his parents’ wishes and get hitched to Vanessa anyway. As a show of their displeasure, Pam, Joe, and Kobe’s two older sisters, Sharia and Shaya, did not attend their wedding. Kobe remained estranged from his family for two whole years until his first child’s birth in 2003.






They were on


:mjpls:

time.

“When u give Give GIVE and they take Take TAKE at wat point do u draw a line in the sand?” Kobe tweeted, according to the Los Angeles Times, with the hashtags “hurt beyond measure,” “gave me no warning,” and finally, “love?”

The tweet was in response to his parents attempting to sell several beloved pieces of memorabilia from Kobe’s career, including the aforementioned championship ring and his high school jerseys. This prompted a lawsuit, the New York Post reported, because Kobe reportedly wasn’t notified about the auction and didn’t give his permission to sell any of the items in question.

“We regret our actions and statements related to the Kobe Bryant auction memorabilia,” said Joe and Pamela in a statement at the time, per ESPN. “We apologize for any misunderstanding and unintended pain we have caused our son and appreciate the financial support he has provided over the years.”

This did put a further strain on Kobe’s relationship with his parents, as they did not attend his final NBA game back in April 2016.

“Our relationship is sh*t,” he explained to ESPN. “I say, ‘I’m going to buy you a very nice home,’ and the response is, ‘That’s not good enough?’ Then you’re selling my s**t?”

Neither Vanessa nor Joe or Pamela have publicly spoken about this current auction, which will be live until March 30, via Goldin.


:francis: So from kobe own mouth his relationship with his parents was done….

So at this point vanessa has no reason to speak with them, if kobe didn’t end shyt on a good note

I mean they did meet on an Eastsidaz video set if I'm not mistaken. They probably thought she was a gold-digger. And I believe they got married pretty quickly after meeting

Here goes Umar again, an expert on telling other people how to spend their money. Perhaps he should concentrate on opening that haunted house he calls a school.. or maybe even spending time with his children? Practice a little bit of what you preach.

As to the Kobe deal - there's help and then there's enabling. Kobe not leaving his parents any money in his will speaks volumes.
