Vanessa Bryant is speaking out against her mother, Sofia Urbieta Laine, after she gave an interview claiming Vanessa kicked her out of the house not long after the tragic deaths of Kobe Bryant and Gianna Bryant earlier this year
“She told me, ‘I need you to get out of this house.’ She also told me that she wanted her car and she wants it now,” Sofia said during a recent interview.
She broke down in tears crying during the interview as well.
Vanessa has issued a statement firing back at her mother’s claims.
“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,” Vanessa said in a statement (via Page Six).
“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,” she added.
Vanessa added that her mother “has not been physically present or emotionally supportive of my daughters or me” since the late January tragedy.
“Now I see what is most important to my mother and it’s more than painful,” she said. “I hope that everything that is coming out about our personal relationship ends here.”
