Vanessa Bryant Responds To Mother’s Accusation Of Throwing Her Out

Vanessa Bryant has fired back at her motherSofia Laine after the latter accused her of kicking her out of her house and dispossessing her of her car.

Recall that we reported thatSofia Lainerevealed in a recent interview that her daughter sent her packing after the death of her husband,Kobe Bryant.

Now,Vanessa Bryant has reacted to her mother’s allegations in a statement she released toUnivision.

She wrote:

"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."

Addressing her mother’s appearance and surroundings in the interview, Vanessa said the older woman is only trying to trick viewers to get sympathy.

"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."
